  • Catalogue Essay

    With already a successful ascent to the moon, the Omega Speedmaster became an iconic watch with its own unique following worldwide. However, post moon landing saw iterations of the famed model featuring complications other than a chronograph. The ref. ST376.0822 is one of the rarest variations of the Speedmaster featuring additional complications. In production for only two years from 1987 to 1988, it featured a day and date window positioned at 3 O’clock.

  • Artist Biography

    Omega

    Swiss • 1848

    Omega's rich history begins with its founder, Louis Brandt, who established the firm in 1848 in La Chaux de Fonds. In 1903, the company changed its name to Omega, becoming the only watch brand in history to have been named after one its own movements. A full-fledged manufacturer of highly accurate, affordable and reliable watches, its sterling reputation enabled them to be chosen as the first watch company to time the Olympic Games beginning in 1932. Its continued focus on precision and reliability ultimately led their Speedmaster chronograph wristwatch to be chosen by NASA in 1965 — the first watch worn on the moon.

    Key models sought-after by collectors include their first, oversized water-resistant chronograph — the reference 2077, early Speedmaster models such as the CK 2915 and 2998, military-issued versions of the Seamaster and oversized chronometer models such as those fitted with their prestigious caliber 30T2Rg.
