In November last year, this mechanical watch made its debut on Daniel Craig’s wrist. Recently, the founder and editor-in-chief of FRATELLO had the opportunity to personally experience this new Speedmaster Moonwatch, taking us in-depth to experience the real wearing experience of this high-profile moonwatch. Let’s take a closer look at this new Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch with a white lacquered dial. Omega said that the design of the white dial was inspired by the extravehicular spacesuits worn by astronauts during extravehicular activities (EVA) such as spacewalks.

As early as 2015, the Speedmaster Snoopy Award watch used a white dial, and the 2008 Speedmaster Alaska Project watch also used a white dial to pay tribute to the Alaska Project prototype watch designed by Omega in the 1970s. Earlier, in 1997 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the birth of the Speedmaster series, the Speedmaster Albino watch launched by Omega for the Italian market also used a white dial. In addition, Omega said that the red “Speedmaster” words on the new moon dial are a tribute to the red heat-insulating cover of the Alaska Project I prototype watch.
Except for the dial and hands, the Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch White Dial is basically the same as the standard Speedmaster Moonwatch. This watch uses the same 42 mm case, equipped with a black anodized aluminum "Dotover90" (the dot with the scale 90 is above the numbers) bezel, and is equipped with the 3861 Master Chronometer chronograph movement.
Looking back on my 25 years of collecting Speedmaster watches, collectors have made three major “requests”. The first is the resumption of production of the 321 movement, which has been hotly debated for many years, and was later perfectly realized by Omega in 2019. Another request was to upgrade the bracelet that Omega has been using since 1996. In 2021, the Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch is equipped with a newly upgraded bracelet, which gradually narrows from the lug to the buckle (20 mm to 15 mm). Finally, I see a lot of people hoping that Omega will introduce a white version of the regular Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch. I suspect that it was the popularity of the 2008 Alaska Project I watch and the 2015 Snoopy Award watch that further contributed to the realization of this wish.
The new Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch is equipped with a white lacquered dial. The key is to retain the "stepped" design of the minute track and the ring texture in the small dial. Omega uses diamond-polished black PVD hands to ensure a sharp contrast with the white lacquered dial and the time display is clearly legible. The hands are coated with Super-LumiNova, which emits green light in the dark. The dial also features diamond-polished black PVD hour markers with square Super-LumiNova fluorescent dots.
