The Watch

The OMEGA Speedmaster is one of OMEGA’s most iconic timepieces today and historically. Having been a part of all six lunar missions, the legendary Speedmaster is an impressive representation of the brand’s adventurous pioneering spirit.

.

Notably, the brand has for many years produced a wide assortment of variations on the classic Speedmaster design, from Quartz to Moonphase.

One of the most complicated variations is the Speedmaster Automatic Ref.176.0016. Beating away inside of the large 40mm steel case, lies the Omega Calibre 1045. The 1045 is based on the Lemania 5100 movement which boasts a 24 hour subdial, 12 Hour Chronograph with Centre Minute Recorder and Hacking Sub Seconds, if that wasn't complicated enough for you there is also an quickset French Day and Date function, the Cherry on top.
