fake Omega hasn’t forgotten about the Speedmaster’s origins, and the company celebrates it with the contemporary Speedmaster Racing line. While this might seem a trivial detail, it’s a fundamental part of the Speedmaster’s history, and it helps keep the watch grounded as a tool for racers. It was the first watch to feature a tachymeter scale on its exterior bezel, rather than printed on the dial, which allowed the watch’s wearer to more readily calculate their speed while behind the wheel. Little did OMEGA know that the Speedmaster’s future success would rely on its efficacy in outer space rather than down at the race track.īut that doesn’t change the fact that the Speedmaster was designed to race. OMEGA wanted to be a part of the action from the start, and a new chronograph wristwatch, with a few identifiable attributes intended to endear it to the nascent racing enthusiast market, was how the Swiss brand decided to tap into this burgeoning demographic. OMEGA debuted the original Speedmaster back in 1957, just as the world of motorsport was beginning to rev its engines.
