00:00 Omega Speedmaster Introduction

There are a few great names within the world of watchmaking that offer unique and well-renowned timepieces. Let's look at one of the most iconic timepieces from a famed Swiss watchmaker – the Omega Speedmaster.

01:42 History of Omega and the Speedmaster

La General Watch Company was founded in 1848 by Louis Brandt. They incorporated the name Omega in 1903, becoming Louis Brandt et Frere-Omega Watch and Co. When they became a subsidiary of this watch group in 1982, they officially changed their name to Omega SA.

03:22 What's a Chronograph?

A chronograph is a type of watch, which features smaller sub-dials within the larger main dial of the watch. The primary function is to keep a record of elapsed time versus the actual time of day. The chronograph’s tachymeter scale can also be used to calculate the speed of a moving object. So, the easiest way to think of a chronograph is like a stopwatch.

06:48 The Speedmaster Today

the Speedmaster represents an incredible chapter in watchmaking and NASA’s history. Omega provides a ton of information on their website, including a downloadable PDF guide, which, you’ll see, is quite useful because there are so many variants in the Speedmaster line.

There are models such as the Speedmaster racing line, which pays homage to the timepiece’s racing routes, the Speedmaster 38, which showcases some smaller Speedmasters, and there are different editions of the “Moonwatch,” including the Dark Side Of The Moon, White Side of the Moon, and many more.

08:13 Omega Speedmaster Details

The watch is crafted in stainless steel with a 42-millimeter case and a 20-millimeter lug width. The dial is finished in black and features three sub-dials. These sub-dials measure the elapsed hours, minutes, and current running seconds.

09:28 Omega Speedmaster Price

Omega’s website has the Speedmaster listed in a range of $6,300 to $7,150. This depends on your choice of crystal or if you want it on a strap or on the bracelet.

10:07 Is the Omega Speedmaster Worth It?

If you’re the type of person who likes a simple, minimalist watch design, then the Speedmaster probably isn’t for you. If you want a watch that can handle water, this probably isn’t it either. It can handle a splash or two, but you don’t want to dive in. It’s not worth it if you’re set on having a quartz or an automatic movement.

11:13 Watches and Personal Value

For Nathan, the Speedmaster has a personal connection to his childhood. His dad is an aerospace engineer who grew up during the space race. He was a young boy when Apollo 11 landed on the moon.

12:02 Our Case for the Speedmaster

From a style standpoint, the Speedmaster has great versatility. The stainless steel bracelet is timeless and shows the heritage of the watch. It looks sporty and can be worn with many casual ensembles.

Overall, the Speedmaster is a testament to Omega as a company as well as their dedication to making beautiful, functional timepieces. Put it next to a similar watch from Breitling, Rolex, or Tag Heuer and we’re confident that you’ll agree, in a great many cases, it’s worth it.
