Put a little spring in your step this season with a sprinkling of sparkles decorating Omega’s latest Speedmaster watches. A long-time favourite among Omega fans – especially in its various Moonwatch iterations over the years – the Speedmaster range now sees the addition of new 38mm references in gold and steel, all dressed up with diamonds: 52 of them encircling the bezel.

An expansion of the successful 38mm collection first brought to life in 2017, this new iteration of the watch combines the characteristics of the iconic Omega chronograph with the elegance and sophistication of diamonds.

The most luxurious interpretation of all takes on a cappuccino tone in 18k Sedna Gold, with horizontal brown oval subtitles and a vertical oval date window – all design details that pay homage to another Omega icon, the De Ville.

The collection sees two different dial colours – brown for the cappuccino, or green – each housed in a respective gold case – 18k Sedna Gold or 18k Moonshine Gold – or in steel for both. Then, after choosing a dial colour and corresponding case material, the piece can come in either a bracelet of matching material, or leather strap matching the dial colour. All versions enjoy the addition of diamonds around the subdials.

Of the two watches in 18k Sedna Gold, one is dressed with a brown leather strap while the other has a matching Sedna Gold bracelet. In both cases the dial is brown PVD, swept by hands coated in white Super-LumiNova that glows a complementary green.

The stainless steel references are presented in PVD brown or PVD green dial options, each with the choice of being paired with a leather strap or a stainless steel bracelet.

The two Moonshine Gold renditions of the 38mm Speedmaster are also offered in a matching gold bracelet version or a green leather strap. Both feature a green dial and, like both the Sedna Gold and stainless steel versions, the Moonshine Gold bracelet is fitted with the patented comfort release adjustment system that allows for micro-adjustments for maximum comfort.

A total of 1.5 carats of scintillating solitaire diamonds adorn each of the eight Speedmaster pieces. Together with their brushed precious alloy or stainless steel cases, the watches exude an elegant shine.

At the heart of these beautiful iterations is the certified Co-Axial Calibre 3330, a self-winding movement that brings life to the time, timekeeping function and date. The watches are then completed with a screw-in caseback stamped with a Seahorse medallion.

Radiating in these references are Omega ambassadors, Korean actress Han So-hee, Chinese actress Liu Shishi and model Kaia Gerber, all excluding confidence with their sparkling new 38mm Speedmasters.

Be it paired with an all-black ensemble for a chic evening out, as seen on the three beautiful Omega ambassadors, or with spring florals and bright colours, the commanding silhouette and the sensational diamond bezel and indices exude an energy in keeping with the season.
