The black bezel, with its tachymeter scale, is mounted on a 42-mm stainless steel case that is water-resistant to 50 meters.Īt the heart of this chronograph is Omega’s mechanical caliber 3861, essentially an updated, Master Chronometer certified version of the famed caliber 1861. Last updated at the start of 2021, the flagship Speedmaster features a distinctive black dial covered by either a hesalite or sapphire crystal with trademark thin hour and minute hands, a small seconds subdial, 30-minute and 12-hour recorders, and a characteristic central chronograph seconds hand.

Like most great icons, the design has changed little across the decades, meaning that today, the Moonwatch is recognized the world over.

Launched in 1957, the Speedmaster is synonymous with spaceflight and adventure. Omega’s Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional offers quite a bit for the price.
