Get ready watch enthusiasts, because Omega is making waves in 2025 with the stunning outrigger of its iconic Speedmaster line—the Omega Speedmaster Moonphase Meteorite! This isn't just an update; it's a complete transformation that will leave you starry-eyed and longing for more.

While we could delve into the vast universe of Speedmaster history (and believe us, it’s a tale as old as the Moon landing itself), let’s focus on what sets this timepiece apart. The Moonphase complication—first introduced to the Speedmaster in 1985—is back, and it’s more dazzling than ever. After all, with a moniker like 'Moonwatch', it’s only fitting to celebrate the celestial body that has captivated humanity for centuries.

What’s New in 2025?

Prepare to be astounded, as almost every aspect of this watch has been refined for the new generation. The Omega Speedmaster Moonphase Meteorite comes equipped with a sleek, hand-wound movement, a fresh Moon complication, and dials crafted from genuine meteorite. Yes, you read that right—this timepiece is not just a watch; it’s a piece of the cosmos on your wrist!

The size has also been streamlined. Where the previous models measured a hefty 44.25mm, Omega has trimmed this down to a more refined 43mm. With a 13.6mm thickness and 48.6mm length, it’s not exactly petite, but it’s an evolutionary leap toward comfort and wearability.

Classic Design Meets Cutting-Edge Engineering

Though slimmer, the Speedmaster Moonphase Meteorite retains its classic features: the asymmetrical case with lyre lugs, elegant polished accents coupled with meticulous brushed surfaces, and a ceramic bezel available in deep blue or black. What’s more, it flaunts a tachymetric scale crafted from white enamel, ensuring that this watch is as functional as it is aesthetically pleasing.

The timepiece is paired with a modern “Nixon-style” steel bracelet that sports both brushed and polished finishes, coupled with a comfortable folding clasp.

Dazzling Dial Features

The dials are where the magic truly happens. With various celestial nods and modern chronograph functionalities, it allows enthusiasts to track time with extraordinary precision. But let’s talk about the Moonphase, which showcases two cabochon moons carved from real meteorite. As these celestial sculptures rotate, they dramatize the different illuminations visible in the northern and southern hemispheres.

Drawing you even further into the cosmos, the backgrounds of the moons display the actual star formations seen from Omega's HQ in Biel on the historic night of Apollo 11's 1969 lunar landing.

Two Eye-Catching Variants

To suit different tastes, Omega will release two variants of the Moonphase Meteorite. The first features a galvanic grey-coated meteorite dial set against a blue PVD-coated base, paired with a striking blue ceramic bezel. The second offers a more mysterious vibe, showcasing a black PVD-coated meteorite dial on a black base, accented by 18K white gold hands.

Both models sport red highlights—adding a touch of elegance to the Speedmaster branding and date hand.

A Master Chronometer Inside

At its heart is the groundbreaking calibre 9914, an evolution of the previous hand-wound calibres, sharing technical roots with the acclaimed calibre 9908 used in the Speedmaster Chronoscope. This powerful movement boasts a robust 60-hour power reserve, is resistant to magnetic fields up to 15,000 Gauss, and ensures a precision that can only be described as astronomical!
