OMEGA Speedmaster Moonphase 44.25 mm, Sedna™ gold on leather strap 304.63.44.52.01.001

Description

The Speedmaster is one of OMEGA’s most iconic timepieces, having been a part of all six lunar missions. Taking the spirit of exploration a step further, this new Moonphase features a hand- engraved representation of the moon.

This 44.25 mm model features a black sun brushed dial, with diamond polished 18K Sedna™ gold indexes and hands. At 6 o’clock is the accurate Moonphase indication, which features an 18K Sedna™ gold hand-engraved moon disc, filled with enamel and sprinkled with silver powder to represent the stars.

Cased in 18K Sedna™ gold and circled with a black ceramic bezel ring with Ceragold™ tachymeter scale, this watch is presented on a black leather strap with a polished-brushed 18K Sedna™ gold foldover clasp.

Powering the timepiece is the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer 9905, which has been officially certified by METAS.

Features

• Anti-magnetic: The movement is unaffected by exposure to strong magnetic fields, even those greater than 1.5 tesla (15,000 gauss).
• Chronograph: The chronograph function is a mechanism for measuring time intervals. A chronograph watch can therefore be used to time events while displaying the time like any traditional watch.
• Chronometer: Label given to a watch which has been successfully tested by an accredited and independent laboratory in order to receive a certificate compliant with the chronometer ISO 3159 standard.
• Date: The day of the month, displayed in a window on a watch dial at the 3 or 6 o’clock position, or within a subdial at 9 o’clock.
• Master Chronometer Certified: Guaranteeing the Swiss industry’s highest standard of precision, performance and magnetic-resistance, as set by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS).
• Moonphase: A moonphase watch uses a function which tracks the phases of the moon. One lunar cycle is 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes and 2.8 seconds and includes four phases: new moon, first quarter, full moon, last quarter.
• Small seconds: A hand on a sub-dial which tracks seconds typically it completes a full rotation in one minute.
• Tachymeter: A tachymeter watch has a function for measuring speed. It is a chronograph with a graduated dial on which speed can be read in kilometres per hour based on a 1000 metre distance.
• Transparent caseback: A transparent caseback – frequently made of sapphire – makes it possible to see the movement inside the watch.
