Three chronograph scales
The three characteristic scales in the 1940s snail design feature a tachymeter scale, a pulsometer scale and a telemeter scale. The tachymeter measures speed based on distance, while the telemeter measures distance based on the speed of sound. The pulsometer measures the human heartbeat, allowing the wearer to measure their own heartbeat or that of another person at any time. The bezel of the Omega Speedmaster Chronoscope features another tachymeter scale.
Long-lasting precision through revolutionary components
The timepiece is powered by a hand-wound Co-Axial Master Chronometer caliber 9908 with a 60-hour power reserve. The Co-Axial escapement and column wheel make the watch insensitive to magnetic fields of up to 15,000 gauss. Other revolutionary components of the Omega Speedmaster Chronoscope include the silicon balance spring, two spring barrels installed one behind the other and the time zone function with rhodium-plated finish and Geneva stripe arabesques.
Different variants for different tastes
The Omega Speedmaster Chronoscope is available in seven different versions so that every man can find his favorite watch. He can choose between a trendy leather strap with a stainless steel clasp and Omega logo or a robust stainless steel bracelet with a patented comfortable clasp adjustment.
Special Highlights
In addition to the tried and tested scratch-resistant and anti-reflective sapphire glass on both sides, the Omega Speedmaster Chronoscope is water-resistant to 5 bar (50 meters) and is highly shock-resistant. The sapphire glass has a hardness of 9 on the Mosch scale (1 to 10) and thus offers an unobstructed view of the dial at all times. All of this ensures that this timepiece requires significantly fewer maintenance intervals than other watches and therefore has a longer service life. Another highlight is the transparent case back, which provides a view of the movement.
