Omega Speedmaster 324.30.38.50.01.001

OMEGA Speedmaster 38 Co-Axial Chronograph 324.30.38.50.01.001

Famed as perhaps one of watchmaking's most universally well-known watches, the Omega Speedmaster became the first timepiece ever to be worn on the moon following Omega's successful bid for the Speedmaster to become NASA's choice timepiece for their standard astronaut kit. After its successful inclusion in the 1965 Gemini program, the Speedmaster also adorned the wrists of the astronauts during the Apollo moon landing missions, and so, in 1969, following Buzz Aldrin's historic steps on the moon (Neil Armstrong left his watch on the lunar module) it became the Moonwatch that we all know and love. However, there is more than being that Moonwatch to the Speedmaster. First released as a racing watch, the Speedmaster has had various references launched since its initial debut in 1957, such as this Speedmaster 38. Offered as a downsized version of the Speedmaster Professional, but with some aesthetic design changes, the Speedmaster 38 is 38mm in diameter, as its name suggests and features a date aperture at 6 o’clock on its dial thanks to its automatic cal. 3330 movement. Also sporting a thinner bezel insert along with a redesigned bezel ring, this timepiece adds a fresh twist to the Speedmaster’s iconic design.
