The legendary Omega Speedmaster is one of the world’s most iconic timepiece that took an important step in the history of mankind. Powering this robust icon was the beautifully intricate movement caliber 321, the first movement ever used in Speedmaster during 1957. Small but mighty, the cal. 321 based on the distinguished Lemania 2310 ébauche captivated the hearts of vintage chronograph enthusiast.

In 2020, Omega announced the return of the legend with the present stainless steel reference 311.30.40.30.01.001. Praised by the community, the stunning remake of the timepiece takes blueprints from the ref. 105.003, the model that was on the wrist of astronaut Ed White during the first American spacewalk Gemini 4 mission in 1965, hence the moniker “Ed White”. Taking faithful design cues from the original timepiece, the re-edition features all desired elements: steel case with straight lugs, the classic dot-over-90 bezel (now in ceramic), matte grained stepped dial with a dose of cream hue on the indexes, as well as the absence of crown guards. Fitted with the flat link bracelet reminiscent of the vintage 1039 version found on the ref. 105.003ST, the entire Speedmaster has an incredible cohesive vintage appeal. Assembled in artisanal fashion, the reference is assembled and regulated by a single watchmaker. Such highly remarkable mechanism is proudly exposed under a sapphire caseback. Offered in like new condition with its full accessories and impressive presentation box, the present Ed White is a superb edition of the classic Moonwatch for the Speedy lover.
