Introduction
Omega Replica launches eight new models from the Speedmaster 38 collection, which not only represents the smallest size in the catalog but identifies a collection different from the more classic models, mixing the characteristic features of a classic Speedmaster with the distinctive ones of other Omega collections, such as the De Ville , for example.
Two tone dial and bezel with diamonds on all
Omega’s designers used a two-tone scheme, combining two dial options, brown and green, and three material options: two in gold and one in steel.
In a more refined configuration, the new Speedmaster 38s debut in Moonshine™ Gold or Sedna™ Gold coupled in the first case with an olive green dial and in the second with a brown dial.
Speedmaster 38 Sedna™ Gold
The red gold version adopts a brown PVD dial and oval counters, typical of this collection (excluding the steel reference with circular black back and counters, in the catalogue) and rose gold diamond spheres filled with white Super-LumiNova®. The watch is available with both a mesh bracelet with a brushed and polished finish and a brown leather strap.b
Speedmaster 38 Moonshine™ Gold
The model in yellow gold is similar in cut, but its sensations are different: the combination of yellow gold and green dial, in this case treated with green PVD, is a clear reference to the Moonwatch in gold with green dial, replicating one of the most valuable models. and fascinated by Moonwatch, in our opinion. The double option, with gold bracelet or green strap, mirrors the rose gold version.
The new Speedmaster 38 in steel
In addition to the two fine models, four variations in steel are added, two on a bracelet and two on a strap, which adopt exactly the same dial-strap color pair. Elements common to all eight references are the diamonds arranged on the bezel, around the oval counters and in the center of the crown.
It is a distinctive element of the collection, which further separates the Speedmaster 38 collection from the original collection, transforming it into a virtually unisex collection in size.
The Omega Co-Axial caliber 3330
Inside each model beats the Omega 3330 movement. It is Chronometer certified, and is the most recent evolution of the movement once mounted on the 39 mm Automatic Speedmasters, equipped with a silicon balance spring, coaxial escapement and switching of the chrono function by means of a wheel. in columns. In fact, let’s not forget, the Speedmaster 38 collection is self-winding with a maximum autonomy of 52 hours.
Considerations and prices
The eight new models bring the spotlight back to the Speedmaster 38 collection, elevating its status with previously unseen fine editions. Born in 2017, it welcomes gold and full gold versions and, judging from the official photos released by Omega, we believe that they are not exclusive to the female universe.
They join three consolidated references; the first with a black dial is the spiritual heir of the Speedmaster Automatic 39 but we also find the steel and rose gold variant with cappuccino colored counters and the steel and yellow gold variant with silver dial very original. It’s our favorite. Prices start from 19,500 Euros (steel on strap) and reach 51,900 Euros for the entirely gold versions.
