Coming in to celebrate the 65th anniversary of the storied OMEGA Speedmaster is the new Speedmaster Calibre 321. For this landmark occasion, the watch highlights vintage details reminiscent of the original Speedmaster, also known as the CK2915-1, and a stunning case and bracelet crafted out of Canopus Gold™. The luxurious material is OMEGA’s exclusive white gold alloy known for its brilliance and longevity.
Only the iconic Calibre 321 can be the right movement powering the new watch as it was the original one used inside the Speedmaster back in 1957. Furthermore, it also powered the Apollo mission watches as well as all of the historic six moon landings. Brought back to production since 2019 to much applause, the Calibre 321 retains its authenticity thus bringing the new Speedmaster Calibre 321 the undisputed provenance and ties to the Speedmaster’s heritage.
