Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Collection

Key Points from the Discussion

• The unique orange hues in the meteorite subdials are a rare and highly desirable characteristic, as most examples tend towards grey and white tones, making Clueless_Collector's piece particularly special.
• Despite its platinum case, the Omega Platinum Onyx 321 is comparable in weight to steel Daytonas, making it manageable for collectors accustomed to heavier watches.
• The combination of a platinum case, onyx dial, meteorite subdials, and the legendary Calibre 321 movement positions this Speedmaster as a grail watch for many collectors.
• Clueless_Collector notes that earlier models of this reference came in a black fabric Moonwatch box, while newer ones are presented in a wooden box, with the nato and Moonwatch straps no longer included.
• The deep black onyx dial is particularly praised for its ability to absorb light, creating a striking contrast with the meteorite subdials.
• There is a question regarding the composition of the meteorite, specifically whether the 'iron' (Fe) content could lead to magnetization, though the aesthetic appeal is highly valued.
