Grey Omega Speedmaster Grey Side of the Moon Watch

"The moon's surface is a vast expanse of gray." More than half a century later, the Omega Speedmaster series captures this memory of space on the wrist with the new Moon Grey timepiece. It's not simply about presenting a gray watch; it's about reinterpreting that epic exploration through modern watchmaking.

The 44.25mm diameter fits perfectly on the wrist, retaining the Speedmaster's sporty DNA without being overly ostentatious. Even more special is the gray ceramic material, an inorganic non-metallic substance fired at high temperatures. This material can be used to manufacture high-density watch components with special mechanical properties. It is more wear-resistant, highly scratch-resistant, and hypoallergenic. Running your fingertips across the case reveals the delicate texture of the processed ceramic, as if touching the real moon.

 If the case is the outline of the "moon," then the skeletonized dial is the soul of this Grey Side of the Moon—Omega has used watchmaking craftsmanship to almost perfectly reproduce the texture of the moon. Looking through the anti-reflective sapphire crystal, the dial is not a flat pattern, but a three-dimensional, undulating "moon": those delicate raised textures are the result of the movement plates being meticulously crafted using laser ablation technology. Every line is etched onto the metal surface by a precision laser, simulating the actual topographical undulations of the "side of the moon" as seen from Earth. 

When the watch is flipped over, the see-through case back reveals the mysterious texture of the moon's dark side. Areas not exposed to sunlight exhibit a deeper gray tone, presenting the scene of the "dark side of the moon," subtly echoing the front. The two sandblasted sub-dials resemble bright areas on the moon, with their silver-white tones creating a soft contrast with the gray "lunar surface." This ensures clear readability of the chronograph function while adding depth to the overall "moon watch" visual appeal, making it feel as if you can touch the real texture of the lunar surface when you raise your wrist.
