Speedmaster Historie
The Omega Speedmaster is famed for its rich heritage, landmark achievements, and iconic design, making it one of the world’s best-loved watches.
Introduced in 1957, it has withstood the test of time, participating in significant historical events. It earned international acclaim when it became the first watch worn on the moon during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969—a feat that cemented its reputation for precision, durability, and innovation. Besides its celebrated association with NASA is its long-standing role as official timekeeper for the Olympic Games, which began with the Los Angeles games of 1932.
What distinguishes the Omega Speedmaster is its signature design. Its bold dial with three subdials creates a distinctive sporty look, while it was also the first watch to put a tachymeter scale—used to calculate speed—on the bezel instead of the dial. No wonder it’s a firm favourite among motor-racing fans, for whom it was originally intended.
The Speedmaster collection is home to a diverse range of models, each possessing unique characteristics and features, providing something for every watch enthusiast.
The Moonwatch Professional—the most iconic model in the range—holds a unique place in history as the first watch worn on the moon. Its classic design, robust construction, and reliable movement make it a favourite among collectors and space enthusiasts.
For those seeking mechanical innovation, the Speedmaster Co-Axial Master Chronometer is a great choice. This model combines the English watchmaker George Daniel’s Co-Axial escapement—invented to reduce friction on components—and Master Chronometer certification, ensuring exceptional accuracy and performance.
If you prefer your Speedmaster to be a little more experimental, you’ll like the Dark Side of the Moon collection. Each model is crafted from a single block of black zirconium oxide ceramic, giving it a deep shade of black. The somewhat ominous name refers to the mysteriousness of space. Its standout model is the Apollo 8 which features a textured dial inspired by the moon’s surface, allowing you to “wear the moon on your wrist”. Whereas the White Side of the Moon is an all-white alternative.
The Snoopy Speedmaster models, such as the charming “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary, are also favourites with collectors. These watches pay homage to NASAs own Silver Snoopy Award, which it presents to its employees for outstanding achievements related to human flight safety or mission success. Omega received the award in 1970 after it played a critical role in saving the Apollo 13 mission.
The Speedmaster is also renowned for its versatility and style. These watches seamlessly transition from casual to formal occasions, making them suitable for any setting. Whether you're dressing up for a black-tie event or heading on a weekend getaway, an Omega Speedmaster will enhance your look whatever you’re wearing.
