Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch 311.30.42.30.01.004

The Speedmaster is so closely associated with NASA and the Moon landings these days that it's easy to forget that when it was first released in the 1950s, it was not remotely intended for space travel. Rather, as the name suggests, the Speedy was designed as a sports watch for timing things like motor racing. Certain models, both vintage and modern, have re-established that link somewhat, including a number of “racing” editions with checkered patterns on the dials resembling finish flags. This wonderful example made a big splash at Baselworld 2013 and has been nicknamed “Tintin”, because of its red and white pattern, directly inspired by the spaceship used by the comic book hero to go to the Moon. This Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch 311.30.42.30.01.004 has a black dial and a bracelet strap.
