Speedmaster ’57 Master Chronometer 40.5mm Black Dial | Ref. 332.10.41.51.01.001 | 2023 Full Set

The Story

In 1957, Omega introduced the reference CK2915—the world's first chronograph to feature a tachymeter scale engraved directly on an external metal bezel rather than printed on the dial, changing the automotive and aerospace landscape forever. The Omega Speedmaster ’57 (Ref. 332.10.41.51.01.001) represents the absolute peak of modern homage watchmaking. By trimming the case profile down to a remarkably comfortable 40.5mm diameter and under 13mm thickness, Omega bypassed bulky modern sports proportions to deliver a slender, intensely charismatic heritage statement piece tailored for the enthusiast who demands 1950s racing soul backed by bulletproof Master Chronometer performance.

The Craft: Broad Arrow Geometry & METAS Calibre 9906

The 40.5mm stainless steel case showcases refined vintage ergonomics, featuring straight lyre-less lugs, polished chamfers, and a brushed stainless steel bezel ring with an engraved tachymeter scale.

The black dial features recessed hour markers filled with vintage-toned Super-LumiNova, creating a subtle sandwich-style depth. The hands pay direct tribute to the 1957 original with polished steel Broad Arrow hour and minute hands. The bicompax sub-dial layout places running seconds at 9 o'clock and combined 12-hour/60-minute chronograph counters at 3 o'clock, complemented by a date aperture gracefully integrated at 6 o'clock.

Turn the watch over to admire the mechanical heart through the sapphire exhibition caseback: the In-house Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 9906. This hand-wound column-wheel chronograph movement features twin barrels in series, storing a robust 60-hour power reserve. Certified by METAS (the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology), it offers chronometric precision of 0/+5 seconds per day and complete immunity to magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss, decorated with Arabesque Cenevre dalgaları (Geneva waves in arabesque).
