Swiss Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon ALINGHI O31192443001002

The dynamic partnership between OMEGA and ALINGHI has brought the very best of Swiss precision, innovation and pioneering spirit together. In tribute to this unique sailing collaboration, a brand new OMEGA timepiece has now been launched.
The choice of Speedmaster perfectly reflects the fast boats that fly across the water. Perhaps most impressive is the watch's expertly decorated Calibre 1865. The manual-winding movement is ideal for sailing crews due to its lighter and thinner design. To enhance the movement, OMEGA has taken inspiration from ALINGHI's new TF35 catamaran. Using laser ablation, the mainplate and barrel bridge have been given a honeycomb effect, similar to the interior of the ALINGHI boat's carbon hull. The same laser ablation technology has then been employed to decorate all other bridges with a black carbon pattern, also inspired by the carbon that is used for the boat's hull.
For the overall colour coding, OMEGA has matched the watch with the ALINGHI logo, which includes red to represent passion, and black for technology. This can be seen through features such as the perforated black and red rubber strap, as well as the 44.25 mm case in black zirconium oxide ceramic. Along with a tachymeter scale in Super-LumiNova, the outward design is also notable for the ALINGHI logo on the stop/start pusher, which has been created in red varnish.
Two of the watch's subdials are also worthy of attention. At 3 o'clock, a 4-minute or 5-minute tactical time display has been included in red, helping with precision on the water. At 6 o'clock, the traditional subdial design has been replaced with a sandblasted and anodized aluminium disc, which features the ALINGHI logo transferred in red. The team's logo represents the letter "aand is inspired by two boats churning the seas before the start of a match race. The logo rotates on the watch when the chronograph function is used.
