Omega Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday Limited Edition simply because this edition is based on the more than famous Professional edition “Moonwatch”. It means a 42mm stainless steel case, the iconic 1861 movement (virtually the same movement that powered the timepieces NASA’s astronauts wore on the moon – with one or two differences, as they were flying with the 861) and the combination of a tri-compaxblack dial with external Tachymeter bezel.
Omega Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday Limited Edition has a “radial dial”, inspired by a specific watch, the original 1978 “Speedmaster Alaska III” model. This watch was produced for NASA, who insisted on a watch that was anti-reflective and easy-to-read in space. Thus, not only it has specific radial inscriptions on the sub-counters (not written horizontally like in the Moonwatch but radially around the sub-dials), but its stainless steel case, like the Alaska III, is entirely brushed.
