Omega Speedmaster: New Dark Side of the Moon models

O mega presented the new generation Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon, this time with a thinner case, new mechanisms and four variations that remain faithful to the original. Let's remember, the first Dark Side of the Moon , presented more than ten years ago, was the first Speedmaster made entirely of ceramics. The new model retains the same concept, but is almost a millimeter thinner. Two versions are powered by the automatic caliber 9900 from the previous model, while the others are equipped with manual winding mechanisms – caliber 9908 and caliber 3861, known from the Moonwatch.

The automatic versions have the same layout with a chronograph and date window, while the Black Edition has a matte black dial, hands and black-coated movement.

The hand-wound models are thinner with a case height of 13 mm. The model with the caliber 9908 has a red chronograph hand and Speedmaster lettering in the same color.

While the Grey Side of the Moon stands out with a dial with a laser-engraved lunar surface and a caliber 3869 movement, derived from the historic 861 model.

All models have Master Chronometer certificate, use Omega Co-Axial escapement and come in a 44.25 mm diameter ceramic case with a combination of brushed and polished surfaces.

Prices start at $15,700 for the base model and go up to $16,400 for the Grey Side of the Moon.
