speedmaster professional moonphase:3576.50.00
Is there any interest in this model? .omegawatches/index.ph...000&no_cache=1 Its a professional, manual wind, sapphire sandwich with moonphase and date. I know its not the watch that went to the moon, but in reality not even though sapphire sandwich went up. I really would like a watch with date, so I think the moonphase and date are nice touches considering its a moon watch. I also like its a 42mm alike the original and I know Omega makes a 40mm with date only. So here is my dilemma, considering that the 3576.50.00 and 3573.50.00 are not that much different in price, which one would you get? I think I really like the moonphase? From a collector's point of view, do you think this a bad move? How about the 3573.50.00? or the original 3570.50.00? Thanks for all your help.

Patek 5712 and power reserve
Have a question in regards to power reserve on 5712. I know official site says that power reserve is 48 hours but was curious how much longer beyond 48 hours and if the watch would start running slower I took my watch off on Friday around 3 pm and put it on on Sunday around 7. So watch was off my wrist about 52 hours, and when I put it on I saw power reserve indicator was on the red but not fully out. I did not pay attention to see if the watch was running or not, but I immidiately wound it a little since the indicator was on low and bottom of the red markings. Later I noticed that it was an hour off. Being off exactly an hour (plus/minus few minutes) I didn't notice that the hour hand was off originally when I put the watch on.So wanted to know if it's possible for the watch to start running slower or stop while power reserve indicator is not all the way on empty? As I mentioned above, watch was off the wrist for about 52 hours.Thanks and have a great week everyone!

I can't help it part 2
I realize I must have something new on the 562 too.

Boston area service recommendation?
Hi all-I'm approaching the process of sending my watch in for service. It's a 1988 168000 that I bought new and likely will send it off to Rolex as I have in the past. I was considering having them replace the bezel insert as there is missing paint on the top of the triangle near the pearl from some kind of 'encounter' over the years. It's not that big of a deal, but since I'm going to the trouble and expense it would be nice to have the watch looking it's best for the next 30 years.After spending some time here and learning a great deal, I've concluded that maybe it's best to replace the insert prior to sending it off as I'm told that Rolex doesn't return the original parts and I'd like to keep the original insert.I've been poking around and while I haven't found one yet, expect that at some point I may be able to find a period correct replacement. I think I understand the differences in the number font, i.e.- old to new style, especially in the '4' shape, so will keep an eye on that.
