New Omega Speedmaster??
It's been leaked on-line. The new Speedmaster Moonwatch with 3861 Master co-axial movement. It's to be available in both, hesalite and saphhire glass. A nice improvement with nearly 20% increase in prices. Changes... return of AML Return of step dial. new...
A coaxial chronometer chronograph has never been worn on the moon..
This is a complete anachronistic fabrication. The last moon mission was in 1972. Daniels did not invent the coaxial movement until 1976. There wasn’t even any overlap. But hey, if someone likes the watch.. then they should go for it. Does this mean that O...
Excellent points. I doubt that NASA has already gone through the trouble of flight qualifying the co-axial movement.
Why would they, the 1861 works just fine.
It is said that Omega has conducted all those tests, as NASA did earlier, on this watch and later NASA may certify those tests.
NASA won't conduct any tests on this watch.
It’s all plausible. Omega is trying to move up-market.
...even though the hesalite speedie on my wrist is currently running within METAS standards and is proven to be anti-magnetic and [EVEN MORE] shock resistant than the co-axial counterparts. On another note: do these 3861 movements have hacking seconds fun...
Dude, the whole industry is based on fabrication.
Since decades it has been all about marketing.
It's not clear that the picture shows an applied Omega logo....
Otherwise looks ok to me with the improvements and a small price increase. Anyway it is the last call for those wanting a basic moonwatch or a FOIS to get to their dealers.
Looks hot to me!
I will definitely look into this one A picture of the movement would be great
Omega Speedmaster ...
Omega make the move to Master Cronometer on the “standard” Speedmaster. Good move, what’s not to like.
I was on the list to buy a moonwatch with hesalite.
Maybe it is better to wait a bit, because the improvements look promising.
Precisely. And I'll wait . . .
. . . for a Mk II edition. That might prove irresistible. 🙂
Inevitable incoming. Personally I think it is well done.
Omega did not mess around with the design, they even improved it very subtly. Even retain the combination of hesalite and solid caseback (my favourite combi). With the new caliber which is not a bit lesser than before. What's not to like? If i'm in the ma...
