Since 1969, the OMEGA Speedmaster has been synonymous with exploration and achievement, earning its place as a timeless symbol of humanity's first steps on the moon. With its newest release, the Speedmaster Moonphase Meteorite, OMEGA takes its connection to the cosmos a step further. This remarkable timepiece, available in two stunning 43 mm stainless steel variations, pays homage to the Moon's mystique with an extraordinary Moonphase display crafted from genuine lunar meteorite.

Introducing the Calibre 9914

At the heart of these watches is the manual-winding calibre 9914, a first for the Speedmaster line. Visible through the sapphire crystal caseback, this anti-magnetic movement withstands fields up to 15,000 gauss and delivers a 60-hour power reserve. Certified as a Master Chronometer by METAS, it guarantees OMEGA’s highest standard of precision and performance.

Black Meteorite Dial with Classic Elegance

The first Speedmaster Moonphase Meteorite variation features a dial crafted from a PVD black-coated meteorite plate, offering a dramatic and textured backdrop that echoes the vastness of space. The hour and minute hands, as well as the indexes, are made from 18K white gold, adding a touch of timeless elegance.

This model's standout feature is the Moonphase display at 6 o’clock, showcasing two moons meticulously crafted from polished and domed lunar meteorite, complete with north and south hemisphere indications.

The polished-brushed stainless steel case is paired with a polished black ceramic bezel ring, featuring a white enamel tachymeter scale—a nod to OMEGA’s iconic Speedmaster heritage. Completing the design is a polished-brushed stainless steel bracelet, equipped with OMEGA’s patented comfort release adjustment, ensuring a perfect fit.

Grey Meteorite Dial with Blue Accents

For those drawn to a cooler palette, the second variation features a galvanic grey-coated meteorite dial. The indexes and hands, also made from 18K white gold, are coated in a striking blue hue, creating a refined contrast. As with the first model, the Moonphase display at 6 o’clock takes center stage, with two moons carved from genuine lunar meteorite.

This variation is framed by a polished blue ceramic bezel ring, engraved with a white enamel tachymeter scale. The polished-brushed stainless steel bracelet with OMEGA’s patented comfort release adjustment completes the look, offering the same blend of sophistication and practicality.

A Watch for Lunar Dreamers

The Speedmaster Moonphase Meteorite is more than a timepiece—it’s a story of heritage, innovation, and the endless allure of the Moon. With its celestial design elements and state-of-the-art movement, this watch is crafted for modern pioneers who value both technical mastery and timeless beauty.

Whether you choose the bold contrast of the black PVD variation or the serene sophistication of the grey meteorite model, the Speedmaster Moonphase Meteorite invites you to wear a piece of the cosmos on your wrist—a fitting tribute to the Moon’s eternal charm.

For those who appreciate the intersection of luxury, performance, and history, this new chapter in OMEGA’s Speedmaster legacy is a must-have addition to any collection.

In the realm of horology, certain timepieces transcend mere function and become icons in their own right. The Speedmaster Moonwatch is one such masterpiece, a symbol of adventure, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. With a legacy spanning all six moon landings, this legendary chronograph embodies the very essence of Omega's pioneering spirit.

One of the World’s most iconic Timepieces

It’s here and we had the privilege to wear it already. The Speedmaster by Omega is now available with a lacquered white dial inspired by a history of space exploration. No matter in what color, the 42mm Moonwatch in stainless steel is a sight to behold. Presented on a polished-brushed bracelet, its allure is undeniable, exuding a sense of sophistication and rugged elegance.

From the sapphire crystal glass adorning both the front and caseback to the asymmetrical case design inspired by the fourth-generation Speedmaster style worn on the moon, every aspect of the Moonwatch speaks to Omega's dedication to craftsmanship and innovation. The white lacquered step dial, adorned with the applied Omega logo and indexes, along with the iconic hands, evoke a sense of nostalgia and adventure, transporting wearers to the awe-inspiring moments of space exploration.

But the magic doesn't stop there. The famous dot over 90 on the black anodized aluminum bezel ring, a distinctive feature of the Moonwatch, adds a touch of character and charm, paying homage to its storied past and illustrious heritage.

At the heart of the Speedmaster Moonwatch lies the Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861, a state-of-the-art movement that powers its intricate chronograph functions with unparalleled precision. Whether tracking small seconds or recording elapsed time with the 30-minute and 12-hour recorders, this timepiece is a testament to Omega's commitment to performance and reliability.

Speedmaster Moonwatch White Dial

Delving deeper into its design, the white dial of the Moonwatch is a nod to astronaut suits and the iconic ALASKA prototype from 1969. Contrasting black details and a glossy lacquered finish, a first-ever on a Moonwatch step dial, add to its allure and sophistication. Meanwhile, the red touches, including the red Speedmaster name and red tip on the seconds hand, draw inspiration from the protective case on the ALASKA watch and the red Commander stripes on astronaut suits, adding a pop of color and personality to the timepiece.

Completing the ensemble is the meticulously crafted bracelet, featuring a comfort adjustment setting and a polished Omega logo on the satin-finished cover. With a width of 15mm and two polished pushers in an oval shape, the bracelet is not just a functional accessory but a work of art in its own right, seamlessly blending style and comfort.

In a world where time is of the essence, the Speedmaster Moonwatch stands as a testament to human ingenuity and the enduring spirit of exploration. Whether worn as a statement piece or a companion on daring adventures, this legendary chronograph is more than just a watch—it's a symbol of courage, ambition, and the triumph of the human spirit.

Our Artworth team recently organized an event in collaboration with OMEGA, and it was a night to remember. The event taking place at Zurich Airport's THE CIRCLE showcased some exclusive timepieces by OMEGA such as the newly released Speedmaster Super Racing. Let's look back on a great night among watch enthusiast!

Largest OMEGA Boutique in Europe

Did you know that OMEGA's largest boutique in Europe is neither in London nor Paris? It's located right at the Zurich Airport. Here, we welcomed 60 guests and treated them to a flying dinner, with dishes that delighted the palate and complemented the stylish ambiance of the venue. The open bar served gin & tonics and Negronis prepared by Deux Frères, which certainly added to the enjoyment of the evening.

As if mechanical watches and carefully prepared cocktails weren't enough, there was also Amarcord, presenting seasonal fabrics. The tailor's display was a perfect complement to the versatile OMEGA watches on display, providing guests with inspiration for their next outfit.

OMEGA Speedmaster Super Racing

One of the highlights of the evening was certainly the Speedmaster Super Racing. This 44.25mm Speedy is the first timepiece in the world to include the Spirate™ System: OMEGA’s fine-tune balance spring mechanism. Its stylish exterior pays tribute to the 10th anniversary of the Seamaster Aqua Terra >15’000 GAUSS launched in 2013. Our guests were among the first people in Switzerland to see this groundbreaking timepiece and it was very well received.

Another popular watch was certainly the OMEGA Speedmaster Silver Snoopy Award. This 50th anniversary timepiece pays tribute to the “Silver Snoopy Award” that OMEGA received from NASA astronauts in 1970, in recognition of the brand’s contributions to space exploration, including the Apollo 13 mission.

The World of OMEGA

The OMEGA Seamaster and Constellation collections were also well represented, with a variety of styles and designs that showcased the brand's commitment to quality and innovation in a wide range of areas. All watches were accessible and guests were able to try them on and get a feel for their exceptional craftsmanship.

In addition to the watches, the event also provided a unique opportunity to network with like-minded individuals. The atmosphere was vibrant and energizing, with guests sharing their experiences and insights into the latest trends and developments. Hence, the first ever OMEGA x Artworth event was a huge success. It provided a memorable evening of style, elegance, and luxury, with watches that dazzled and drinks that delighted. It's safe to say that everyone who attended left with a newfound appreciation for the art and craft of watchmaking!

The Artworth at Bucherer event series takes us to Paris! Join us as we check-in at the marvelous InterContinental Paris LeGrand next to the Opéra and prepare for the event. Which rare certified pre-owned watches by Bucherer will we get to discover this time?

Staying at InterContinental Paris LeGrand

Checking-in at the InterContinental Paris LeGrand feels like traveling back in time. The iconic hotel was inaugurated under Napoleon III and is located in the heart of Paris. It offers guests a magnificent view of the Opera Garnier. The 5-star hotel boasts rooms and suites decorated in a Second Empire style infused with contemporary touches.

One of the highlights is the Verrière, a spacious winter garden inside the hotel. Seating is bathed in natural light under the vast metallic atrium and enhanced with giant ficus plants, white orchids and lights reminiscent of Parisian passageways. The serenity of the Verrière feels like an oasis in the midst of Paris' bustling streets. In the evening, an intimate atmosphere in the gentle glow of the large central chandelier awaits guests.

The Café de la Paix, a Parisian institution within the hotel, serves the great classics of French gastronomy. It has always been at the heart of Parisian art and art de vivre. Sitting down for a delicious French breakfast, we join an illustrious list of patrons, the spirit of Guy de Maupassant and Victor Hugo or the memory of Ernest Hemingway.

Exploring Paris

The central location of InterContinental Paris LeGrand is ideal to check out some famous sights by foot. For example the iconic Galeries Lafayette with their incredible terrace that can be visited for free.

From here, more sights like the Opéra or the Palais Royal are just minutes away by foot. The latter is one of our favorite places in the city. We love to grad a flat white at Kitsuné and settle down on a bench inside the Palais Royal Garden and read the newspaper.

The Louvre is only a stone throw away from here. While the exhibitions here attract large crowds, we usually enjoy coming here simply for the architecture. Historic buildings, restful gardens and modern elements make for a great combination!

When needing a break, where better to go than one of the many beautiful bistros? There are tons of classy corner cafés that can be discovered. We usually like to sit outside and watch the busy city life unfold before us while enjoying a coffee or glass of champagne.

Artworth at Bucherer Paris

The Swiss watch and fine jewellery experts from Bucherer have set up a very nice boutique in Paris. It is actually situated inside the same iconic building as the InterContinental Paris LeGrand on 12, Boulevard des Capucines.

Not too long ago, a Bucherer Gallery was opened inside the boutique. This marvelous space is dedicated to certified pre-owend watches. These are timepieces that Bucherer acquires, services and offers again to its clients - with a two year warranty.

The Artworth at Bucherer event takes place inside this beautiful Gallery. Our events are always a great opportunity to discover rare and highly sought after timepieces. One example is this Rolex Cosmograph Daytona. With its 40 mm rose gold case, this reference 116505 comes equipped with the automatic caliber 4130.

Another exceptional piece displayed at the event was an Omega Speedmaster Professional "Silver Snoopy Award". Limited to only 5'441 numbered pieces, this watch was launched to commemorate the Apollo XIII mission. On the second sub register, the famous “Eyes on the Stars” was added. It can also be found on the case back.

But why is there a Snoopy on a Speedy? Well, at the time of the Apollo lunar program he was a very popular character and was liked by the Apollo 10 crew. Their lunar module was even named after him. Snoopy was therefore chosen as the watchdog for NASA's prestigious manned flight awareness award.
The "Silver Snoopy" is awarded to individuals and companies for outstanding efforts that contribute to the success of human space flight missions. Omega received its Snoopy Award on 5 October 1970 in recognition of the crucial role that its Speedmaster chronograph played on the Apollo 13 mission.

A heartfelt Merci goes out to everyone who joined our first event in France and discovered fine watches, exquisite fabrics by Dormeuil and enjoyed delicious champagne by Laurent-Perrier. We hope to be back soon!

Omega's famous Speedmaster '57, first introduced in 2013, returns this year with a Master Chronometer upgrade and a slimmer profile. The new 40.5 mm collection consists of eight stainless steel models, all offering a streamlined look with iconic heritage touches and bold new colours. Let's have a closer look!

Hands-on with the Speedmaster '57

With its unique Broad Arrow hands and tachymeter scale on the bezel, the Speedmaster ’57 is emblematic of the first, revolutionary Speedmaster that was launched in 1957. For the latest update, Omega has lifted the vintage spirit to another level, with slimmer styling, extraordinary colour, and a Co-Axial Master Chronometer engine that takes precision to the next gear.

This enduring watch is the perfect front seat companion for us, when driving a classic car. We love how it represents the original, timeless look of the Speedmaster (Speedy) line. It features a stainless-steel case and a black dial with recessed hour markers showing vintage Super-LumiNova from beneath. The beautifully brushed bezel includes a blackened tachymeter scale, while on the caseback, there is a “Speedmaster ‘57” engraving as well as a flat sapphire crystal.

A Day on the Wrist

We start the day at Omega's headquarters in Biel/Bienne. Here we pick up the beautiful Speedmaster '57 "Steel on Steel" version reference 332.10.41.51.01.001 and head to our favorite café in town. It is inspired by the iconic cafés in Paris and let's us dive into that classy 1950s era.

After this first pit stop we continue our journey through the beautiful Jura region. As we drive through colorful forests, we keep on glancing on the beautiful black dial of the Speedy with indicators matching the color of the autumnal leaves. The perfect combination!

Overall, the Omega Speedmaster '57 is a wonderful timepiece with a contemporary size of 40.5 mm and a design that pays tribute to the first Speedy. The updated movement and the added date complication both make this watch the ideal timepiece for everyday wear. Especially for those who appreciate the history of space exploration and have a flair for the aesthetics of the 1950s and 60s.

Another fun aspect of the collection is, that the heritage models come in four different colours. People can also choose between a wonderfully finished flat link bracelet and leather straps that come in matching colours. Ideally, you go for both!

We visited the Omega manufacture in our hometown of Biel/Bienne to discover the novelties of 2022. While stunning new watches were released within all collections, 5 particular timepieces caught our attention. Let us show you which ones!

Speedmaster Professional Moonshine™ Gold

The Speedy is now available in 18K Moonshine™ Gold! Inspired by the 4th generation Speedmaster, this 42 mm timepiece comes with a case and bracelet in a unique alloy. The dial is available in different variations. We love the sun-brushed green PVD "step" dial with "Moonwatch" style hands. In this version, iconic ceramic bezel ring is green as well.

Another incredibly beautiful version features a sun-brushed 18K Moonshine™ Gold "step" dial with blackened subdials and indexes. The ceramic bezel ring comes in a nice contrasting black as well. The integrated black rubber strap adds an intriguing sporty component to an otherwise very elegant timepiece.

Both watches come with the famous "dot over 90" and are powered by Omega's Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861 with special luxury finish. Which model do you prefer?

Speedmaster '57

Are you a fan of the legendary 1957 original? Then you might get excited about this new 40.50 mm model! It features a stainless steel case and a black dial with recessed hour markers showing vintage Super-LumiNova from beneath. The “Broad Arrow” hands are rhodium-plated, adding to the overall vintage look. A date window has been added at 6 o'clock which makes this watch very suitable for everyday use. Just like the original, the Speedmaster '57 is a manual-winding timepiece, being powered by the Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 9906.

Seamaster Planet Ocean 6000M

As part of the Five Deeps Expedition in 2019, the Ultra Deep made history when it reached the deepest place on Earth. Following that World Record dive, the game-changing watch has now been adapted for a unique collection available to the public. Tested in real ocean conditions during its development, the design is water-resistant to 6,000 metres (20,000 ft.) and meets the ISO 6425:2018 standard for saturation divers’ watches.

The resulting 45.5 mm model in sand-blasted Grade 5 Titanium features a brushed black ceramic bezel ring with its diving scale in Liquidmetal™. Distinctive “Manta Lugs” can be found at each end of the case, holding on to a striped black and cyan polyamide NATO strap. Inside, the watch is driven by the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8912.

Seamaster Diver 300M

Since 1993, the Seamaster Professional Diver 300M has enjoyed a legendary following. Today’s modern collection has embraced that famous ocean heritage and updated it with OMEGA’s best innovation and design.

This new 42 mm model is crafted from stainless steel and includes a green ceramic bezel with a white enamel diving scale. The dial is also polished green ceramic and features laser-engraved waves and a date window at 6 o’clock. The watch is presented on a matching green rubber strap and is driven by the OMEGA Master Chronometer Calibre 8800, which is visible on the case back.

The Swiss watch brand OMEGA is updating its iconic Speedmaster family with seven new timepieces that are part of the Speedmaster Chronoscope collection. The timepieces take inspiration from OMEGA’s chronograph wristwatches from the 1940s. Let's discover these novelties together!

Hands-on with the Omega Speedmaster Chronoscope

With the Speedmaster Chronoscope, OMEGA is returning its vintage roots and rich history. The leaf-shaped hands and three “snail” timing scales on the dial give these watches a clear link to 1940s watchmaking. There’s also an elegant addition of a “spiral” track pattern that runs beneath the Arabic numerals. We love how the style is very similar to the spiralling subdials one finds on most Speedmaster models.

Attached to each 43 mm case, the watches can either be worn on leather straps or the new Speedmaster steel bracelets. These polished-brushed stainless steel bracelets have already won our hearts. We love OMEGA’s patented comfort release adjustment system.

Surprisingly, a new calibre has been developed for this collection of Speedmaster watches. Through the sapphire crystal on the caseback, owners can view the manual-winding OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 9908. Now let's get to the functionalities of the watch. Printed in a 1940s “snail” design, each dial reveals a three different scales for measuring. But what exactly?

What to measure with the Speedmaster Chronoscope

Tachymeter - The Chronoscope can tell how fast you are going, based on how far you have travelled. As the scale measures the average travel time between two specific points, it makes no difference whether the journey is in miles of kilometers.

Telemeter - With a simple two-step process, OMEGA's precision tool can tell you exactly how far you are from something that is visible and audible, such as a lightning storm.

Pulsometer - Too slow, too fast, or just right? Thanks to this 30-pulse-per-minute scale, you can measure your own or someone else's heartbeat.

The Artworth Favorites

Among the seven watches of the new OMEGA Speedmaster Chronoscope collection, we love two models in particular. Let's have a closer look at them!

Bronze Gold on Leather

The first model has been crafted in OMEGA’s exclusive Bronze Gold. Not only does this one-of-a-kind material deliver a beautiful pink hue, but it also offers incomparable corrosion-resistance. The classic look is completed with a brown leather strap, a polished brown ceramic bezel with a “vintage” enamel tachymeter scale, and an oxidized bronze dial with a special patina and opaline finish. This Reference 329.92.43.51.10.001 is beautiful, right?

Blue Dial on Steel

The other one is crafted in stainless steel with a blue dial with silvery subdials. Along with a blue anodized aluminium bezel ring with its tachymeter scale, the leaf-shaped hands and Arabic numerals are rhodium-plated. Finally, the new Speedmaster bracelet rounds off this Reference 329.30.43.51.03.001 wonderfully!
