white dial Omega Speedmaster Legend

The white dial Omega Speedmaster Legend, perhaps the most popular one due to its color scheme. Last week, Speedmaster enthusiast Raul sent us some pictures of his Speedmaster Legend. As you can see, the dial colors and layout reminds us of those old Rolex “Paul Newman” Daytonas (ref.6262). More Omega Speedmaster replica.

Speedmasters are excellent watches to fiddle around with all kinds of straps. These watches look great on a bracelet but also on leather or even a NATO strap. Raul shows his watch in different disguises, including a beautiful leather ‘racing’ strap and a NATO strap.

The case dimensions are more or less the same (diameter = 42mm) and the Legend has this typical a-symmetrical case design of the Speedmaster Professional. The finish of the case – polished horns and the satin brushed mid-case – is also identical to the hand-wound Moonwatch.

The Speedmaster Legend ref. 3559.32.00 features the Omega caliber 3301 automatic movement. This movement is based on an F.Piguet (caliber 1285) chronograph movement, with a column wheel mechanism for the chronograph function. Besides being a column wheel movement, Omega also had it chronometer certified. Last but not least, the Legend (but also the Broad Arrow models with the same movement from that period) have a date feature. The Speedmaster Professional ‘Moonwatch’ that we’ve often discussed here has of course the hand-wound Lemania based movements. Without a date.
