The Omega Speedmaster Pilot Watch (£8,900) isn’t just a timepiece—it’s a legend that bridges the gap between Earth and the cosmos. As part of the iconic Speedmaster collection, famously worn during all six moon landings, this model blends its rich heritage with modern aviation-inspired design. Whether you’re a pilot, a space enthusiast, or a collector of exceptional watches, the Speedmaster Pilot Watch delivers history, innovation, and style in equal measure.
This 40.85mm masterpiece is crafted from brushed stainless steel, exuding strength and sophistication. Its grained matte black dial is a canvas of intricate details, featuring a rhodium-colored outer ring and bold hour markers made of white Super-LumiNova. These markers emit a green glow, ensuring impeccable readability even in low-light conditions—a must for adventurers on Earth or in space.
The cockpit-inspired design takes center stage with two striking subdials. At 3 o’clock, the 60-minute and 12-hour recorder mimics a “burn rate” indicator, complete with a triangular matte-orange hand and white numerals. At 9 o’clock, the Small Seconds display resembles a target or sight indicator, featuring a matte-yellow hand and a blue artificial horizon. These thoughtful details evoke the precision and aesthetics of aircraft instrumentation, making this timepiece a celebration of flight engineering.
The watch’s hands are equally stunning. Hour and minute hands are PVD-coated matte black, enhanced with Super-LumiNova for optimal visibility. The central chronograph hand adds a vibrant touch with its varnished orange airplane tip, a nod to the aviator spirit of the Speedmaster Pilot.
Under the hood, the watch is powered by the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 9900, a movement certified by METAS for unparalleled precision and resistance to magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss. This self-winding chronograph features a silicon balance spring, two barrels mounted in series, and a column-wheel mechanism. Its rhodium-plated finish with Geneva waves in arabesque is visible through the case back, showcasing its technical beauty.
The Speedmaster Pilot comes with a brushed flat-link steel bracelet and a NATO strap reinforced with KEVLAR® threads, offering versatility and durability. Presented in a sleek travel pouch with a strap-changing tool, it’s ready to accompany you on any journey—whether across continents or into the stratosphere.
A testament to Omega’s storied past and relentless pursuit of innovation, the Speedmaster Pilot Watch is more than a timepiece; it’s a legacy on your wrist.
