Omega Starts 2022 With an All-New Speedmaster!
“Welcome to 2022, here’s our coolest speedmaster of the last couple years.” Omega has entered 2022 swinging with an all new Speedmaster with a feature set that has enthusiasts drooling. Finally releasing a new speedy that features both the Calibre 321 movement, and the coveted Canopus Gold alloy proprietary to the brand, this is definitely a watch that will not last very long at the boutique.

THE JUICE:
The Omega Speedmaster Canopus Gold is a re-imagining of the original Speedmaster CK2915. It shares the same dimensions, the same broad arrow hands, and the same movement (obviously with modern updates, and obviously… in Canopus White Gold). With one exception, that is going to be divisive to Speedmaster fans everywhere - The new model utilizes a sapphire crystal front-and-back.
This allows the wearer to not only see the beautiful movement, but also the added utility of not scratching if you breathe too hard on it. On the back, you’ll see an etching of the Seahorse and a blue sapphire eye - a symbol marking the 65th Anniversary of the Speedmaster.
The watch is cleary a fantastic nod to enthusiasts. Every first Tuesday of the year, Omega has released some Speedy-influenced news or product, and 2022 is no exception here. Canopus Gold? Check. Broad Arrow Hands? Check. Calibre 321? Check. This watch will do well for Omega.
