New watch: Omega Speedmaster "Grey Side of the Moon"

Recommended Posts

GoW13

Just found the news in another forum, that Omega will produce a sister to the "Dark Side of the Moon". And in my humble opinion, she looks stunning!

 

Folks, get ready to drool:

I hope, that certain people in Asia will rep her fast! ;)

I guess it´s 44,25mm, the same as the "Dark Side of the Moon"

 

Edit: yes, it´s 44,25mm

And btw, is there a subsection in this forum, where we can post "watch news". Don´t want to spam here, if I want to show beautiful new pieces :)

I love it. I would absolutely buy it even though it is quartz.

the gens of these are very nice.

Reps always suck though.

 

quartz.. meh.

 

the best part is the back of these ceramic cased watches with display caseback.

The way the sub dials work is kind of a bummer. The dial at 3 is a 24 hour clock synchronized to the hour hand. The minute hand on the sub dial is part of the little hour hand. Fakey fakey.

What next, the slightly lighter grey side of the moon? Just another marketing trick....

looks like a non limited edition/cheaper version of the apollo ltd edition watch which imo is absolutely stunning.

I doubt the gen is quartz...and I'll bet it's 44.5

Looks killer, may have to keep an eye out for this one

Oh I'm positive the gen isn't quartz. The rep will be. Same with DSOTM.

 

The only speedmaster rep worth a damn is the moon watch with st19

For subdials spacing, 21j auto is closest (admittedly without working chrono)

Thats an absolutely stunning watch.. is there anything special about the watch apart from cosmetic looks?

It's titanium case and the dial I believe is milled out from a solid piece of brass.

You can see how the markers arnt inlays. The dial was cut around it.

 

It's pretty amazing.
