Okay, let’s talk about that new Omega Speedmaster Super Racing. I got my hands on it the other day, and boy, was I excited! I’ve always been a Speedmaster fan – it’s just such an iconic watch, you know? Space history, classic design, the whole package. So, when I heard about this Super Racing model, I knew I had to see it.
First off, let me tell you, this thing is a beauty. It’s got that classic Speedmaster look, but with some really cool twists. The size is 44.25 mm, a bit bigger than the usual “Professional” model, but it feels great on the wrist. Not too bulky, just right. It’s the “Speedmaster Racing” design you already know about, but with some extra oomph.
The dial is where things get interesting. It’s got this awesome 3D effect, but it’s not messy. You can still read everything super easily. And the colors! They’ve got this racing-style minute track, and the bezel is black ceramic with that famous tachymeter scale, but it’s in this new yellow enamel that just pops. It’s a bold look, but it works. The color theme overall is kinda classy, yet sporty.
Now, the real magic is inside. This watch has this new “Spirate System” – which, I’m guessing a way to keep better track of time and all that. It’s supposed to be accurate within +2 seconds a day! I mean, that’s nuts! It’s even better than some of those fancy certified chronometers, which are usually accurate to like -4/+6 seconds.
I’ve been wearing it around for a bit, and I gotta say, it’s comfortable. I mean, I wouldn’t wear it to the gym or anything, but for everyday wear, it’s perfect. Plus, it’s just cool to look down and see that Speedmaster logo. It’s like a little piece of history on your wrist.
It comes in different materials too, I think. You’ve got your stainless steel, your gold, or even a mix of both. So, there’s something for everyone, I guess. But the movement inside is the same – the OMEGA Calibre 3330. Sounds fancy, right?
Here are some things I did to check out the watch:
- Looked at it closely: I spent a good chunk of time just examining the watch, checking out the details, the colors, how it felt in my hand.
- Wore it: I put it on my wrist and wore it around for a while to see how it felt, how it looked in different lighting, that sort of thing.
- Read up on it: I did some digging online to learn more about the Spirate System and the watch’s features.
- Compared it: I looked at some other Speedmasters to see how this one stacked up.
Final Thoughts
All in all, I’m really impressed with the Omega Speedmaster Super Racing. It’s a great update to a classic, and that accuracy is just insane. If you’re a Speedmaster fan, or just looking for a really cool, high-quality watch, you should definitely check this one out. This isn’t just a watch; it’s a statement, a piece of history, and a marvel of engineering, all wrapped up in one stylish package.
