Omega Speedmaster Grey Side of the Moon 310.92.44.50.06.001

The Omega Speedmaster Grey Side of the Moon blends lunar-inspired artistry with advanced ceramic engineering, creating a chronograph that honors OMEGA’s pioneering presence in space. This 44.25 mm model features a plasma-treated grey ceramic case, a lunar-themed movement finish, and a manual-winding Master Chronometer calibre that celebrates both mechanical tradition and cosmic exploration.

The case is crafted from polished-brushed grey ceramic enhanced by OMEGA’s plasma treatment, giving it a subtle metallic glow while preserving the strength and scratch resistance of ceramic. Its brushed grey ceramic bezel features a laser-engraved tachymeter scale filled with white Super-LumiNova, ensuring excellent readability and a cohesive monochrome aesthetic. At 44.25 mm in diameter with a 50 mm lug-to-lug span, the watch offers a bold yet balanced presence on the wrist.

Beneath the sapphire crystal, a skeletonized grey anodised aluminium dial reveals sections of the manually finished movement. The main plate and bridges have been laser-ablated to depict the moon’s surface—the near side visible from the dial, and the far side displayed through the exhibition caseback.

The dial layout includes a small-seconds display at 9 o’clock, a 30-minute recorder at 3 o’clock, and a 12-hour recorder at 6 o’clock. The greyed Moonwatch-style hands and bevelled indexes are filled with white Super-LumiNova that emits a green glow in low light.

Powering the watch is the Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3869 in a distinctive Grey Edition finish. The laser-engraved bridges and main plate recreate the moon’s rugged terrain, while the caseback is inscribed with the Apollo-era quote, “THE MOON IS ESSENTIALLY GREY,” spoken by astronaut Jim Lovell. As a manual-winding movement, it offers a tactile connection to the Speedmaster’s mechanical roots and delivers a 50-hour power reserve with Master Chronometer precision.

The watch is completed with a grey coated nylon fabric strap featuring a black rubber lining for enhanced comfort, moisture resistance, and durability. A ceramic foldover clasp supported by a ceramised titanium frame-spring system ensures a secure and lightweight fit during daily wear.

With its plasma-treated grey ceramic architecture, engraved lunar-surface movement, and manual-winding Master Chronometer calibre, the Speedmaster Grey Side of the Moon offers a visually striking and technically advanced tribute to OMEGA’s space legacy. This model is an exceptional choice for collectors who appreciate innovation, artistry, and the spirit of exploration.
