3… 2… 1… Liftoff!Take a poll amongst wristwatch collectors, and we'd bet the consensus would be that there might be nothing more important or iconic in a watch collection than an Omega Speedmaster. Sure, chronographs such as the Rolex Daytona or the Heuer Carrera are classics - icons even, but neither can match the stature of the Speedy with regards to importance in history. In fact, arguably no watch can.This particular Speedy, a Reference 310.30.42.50.01.001, is the latest iteration of the traditional Professional. It features a 42mm stainless steel twisted-lug case with barrel pushers, a Hesalite crystal, a DO90 bezel insert, a luminous matte black dial with recessed sub registers and a matching handset, and a signed crown to operate Omegas latest updated hand-cranking movement — featuring a co-axial escapement for the first time in a professional Speedmaster! Perhaps the most notable, and certainly the most appreciated here at Analog:Shift HQ, is the outstanding updated oval-link bracelet with a signed push-button deployant clasp.These updated Speedy Pros perfectly blend vintage aesthetics and modern function and wearability.What more could you want!
