Vintage watches have always been popular. Omega’s latest Speedmaster Chronoscope has a noble and precise design, which is very nostalgic and also has multiple measurement functions. Another important selling point is that vintage watches are highly compatible with shirts!
Let’s talk about the name of the watch first. Chronoscope is composed of the Greek words “Chrono” and “Scope”; Chrono means time, and Scope means observation. Chronoscope is generally used to measure the time distance between two points or two events. This latest Omega Speedmaster Chronoscope has multiple measurement functions.
Multiple spiral scales can be seen in the center of the surface. The outermost one is the distance meter, which can measure the distance based on the speed of sound and show the exact distance between the wearer and visible and audible objects (such as lightning and thunderstorm areas). The inner scale in the middle is a pulse meter, which can measure the human heart rate. Doctors in the past often wore watches with this function. As for the bezel, there is the familiar tachometer, which can measure speed based on distance. Therefore, the Omega Speedmaster Chronoscope can not only be used to tell time, but also has other precise measurement functions.
Of course, the function is just one of the selling points, and the retro style is the real “king of wearing”. The spiral pattern scale on the surface is inspired by the Omega chronograph in the 1940s, and is lined with 20th century style leaf-shaped hands. The overall design is classical and accurate, and it is very good to wear.
The watch is retro, but the heart is the complex crystallization of modern watchmaking. Through the sapphire crystal bottom cover, you can see the brand’s own Co-Axial Master Chronometer 9908 manual winding movement. The center of the movement splint is engraved with Arabic-style Geneva waves, and the engraved lines are slightly curved. This is also the first time that the brand has designed it in this way, which is quite fresh. The watch has also obtained the Master Chronometer certification as before, which means that the functions such as travel time, anti-magnetic, and waterproof have high-level performance.
The Omega Speedmaster Chronoscope has a diameter of 43mm and a steel case with a variety of models, including a silver dial with blue hands, or a blue dial with silver rhodium-plated hands, and can be equipped with a leather strap or a stainless steel chain strap.
The focus is undoubtedly the “bronze gold” model that the brand has developed this year. This “bronze gold” combines 37.5% gold, palladium and silver to present an elegant and noble color. The bronze gold case is paired with a brown ceramic bezel, brown dial, two silver milky white discs and a central spiral scale. The vintage flavor is simply unstoppable, and retro fans will definitely love it. Yes, the watch is not cheap, but don’t forget that you are buying a gold watch.
