Hello, my name is AZ, and I'm a fellow watch lover based in London, UK. I've been learning about and collecting watches for about 10 years, and this channel shares my thoughts, reviews, and experience of many brands and my ownership of watches, and watch accessories. Please feel free to comment and get in touch. I hope you enjoy what I have to offer!
Is this the best Speedmaster yet? NEW OMEGA White dial Speedmaster 310.30.42.50.04.001
The answer to the question of this video title is…yes! This is the best regular OMEGA Speedmaster to date. When I went to OMEGA HQ last year in Bien/Biel, I was asked what one watch would I like to see be made, and I wearing my Tokyo panda dial edition, I said: "an all-white dial Speedmaster". Now, this is not exactly what I asked for. I would have preferred this to have been monochromatic, but this is very close to being perfect for me.
This watch was 'strategically leaked' well ahead of its official launch at the end of last year on the wrist of James Bond actor Daniel Craig at an event. Since then, speculation of a white non-previous metal Speedie has been rife, and much excitement followed. I'm therefore super pleased to introduce this watch into my collection so soon.
For many, this is a slightly tweaked version of a regular sapphire sandwich Speedmaster. It has the same stainless steel case and OMEGA Calibre 3861 Co-Axial Master Chronometer movement. The same new streamlined bracelet, recently upgraded to include a one-step comfort-adjustment. The only real difference is the dial, but wow, what a difference.
Instead of the usual matt and textured black dial, we have this gorgeous white glossy lacquered dial, retaining its Moonwatch steps for the sub-dials. This adds a much more dressy look to the watch, and stands out from the past silver dials found on the previously mentioned panda, or for example the latest Silver Snoopy. The dial also sports black polished applied indices, matching the hands and the applied OMEGA logo - usually only seen on limited editions.
The red accents have been retained, and are supposed to be a nod to the past Alaska project variances, but it looks like this has been kept to distinguish this version from the all white gold version that had previously been released.
If you are not familiar with the current generation of Speedmasters, they wear incredibly well for a 42mm case. Just over 13mm in height to the boxed-domed sapphire crystal, and with a sapphire crystal on the back showing of the very good looking, though industrially finished movement.
I hope you enjoy the macro footage in this video, and comment below, is this the best Speedmaster yet?

For those not aware, Zelos was founded in 1994 by Elshan Tang, and specialises in well built, generally futuristic designed watches, that love to experiment with materials for cases, and especially dials. Like other brands, the advent of budget 'flyer' or 'traveller' GMT movem...

Tourbillion-tastic! HORAGE Lensman 1

How many Swiss-made in-house made tourbillion watches can you find for under 10,000 CHF? The correct answer is three, and all are made by the rising stars of independent watch-making from Biel-Bienne - HORAGE! When HORAGE were let down by a major movement manufacturer in the delivery of an "of-the-shelf" tourbillion movement, they decided to make one themselves. The Tourbillion 1 was born, and ...

is that a bear with an Aqua Terra?
Gorgeous watch
YES. It is the best looking Speedy ever and it does look so good on that black rubber bracelet. I own the Hesalite version and would love to own this one, but I'm not paying $8000 for one when my Speedy only cost $2500 15 years ago.
Nice
Moonswatch is the best speedmaster
OMEGE - Love em
Vid was good but tht loud music was not good at all!!
I think this could be a winner 20-30 years from now. I like now just saying later on could be a real piece. Maybe buy two and set one aside.
Great video👍 Lovely Watch!
It is criminal that you don’t have more subscribers due to your video skills. TH-cam is fickle. All I can say, is maybe they prefer voice and narration.
Thank you again. Maybe you're right, but then again, I'm not too fussed. Watch fans will hopefully find this channel in time.
Just WOW. A great production, and music. I know how difficult it is to create such a video. I am expecting many more subs.
Thank you so much for your kind comment. This is a passion project for me, so feedback is very important.
I got the call yesterday and picking up this week. I already have the black…can’t wait.
Congrat
How is it? Are you happy with it?
@@maromorostar6621 - Very happy. Put it on a black leather strap and it looks fantastic.
@@gregoryleek1471 nice i can just imagine it, i will buy it when the hype is over. How much did you pay?
Nice watch. How’s it holding up?
Pretty well, no issues at all. I'm not wearing it often, but I can't complain. And importantly, I know the owner Richard is a stand-up guy in case something does go wrong.
I have one and am willing to sell it. Unopened and unused. I bought two different ones and decided to keep the other.
What a great video the editing is incredible!
Ok guys - come on with all the hype. This is basically just a moon watch like your dad wears with a white dial, so let’s not loose our minds that it’s something ground breaking and new. It’s cool and all, but if you pay over list you’re crazy.
I totally agree with you. The hour markers are so thin that anyone with visual problems or the more senior members of society would have difficulty seeing them. They have done the bracelet perfectly though so one can only hope that they do something similar with the Seamaster Diver 🙏
@@IrishScribbler Who use a watch to read time? Everyone just use their phone nowadays, it's easier and way more accurate. Watches are just jewels, you don't even need to wind your speedmaster, as long as it looks good, that's all we ask.
that is a nice looking watch...
What price does it go for?
I love it ,my only complaint is that the box isn’t white ,that would be very nice buts that’s being picky Gorgeous speedy
A white box would be awesome, though they reserve those for special editions. My panda Tokyo 2020 edition came in a white box.
@@aztime0 nice ,love the Tokyo edition too and the box I have the black speedy sapphire sandwich and omega aqua terra small seconds blue indices,Tudor S&G leather strap,breitling superocean uk special edition May go for seamaster white dial next or breitling avenger yellow dial with carbon and black steal
great video! gorgeous watch!
Both black and white are beautiful. Each in their own way....need both!
Oh man on the black rubber strap it looks SOOOOOOOOOOOOO good. Must stay away from Omega boutique!
Hi I tried this watch on in the omega boutique yesterday was very underwhelmed wear's small to dainty boring could be a good unisex watch for smaller wrists size over priced in my opinion.so in answer to your question no it's not the best speed master thanks John.
Thank you for your comments. You should try the automatic versions, like the moonphase or Grey Side of the Moon. I think they will fit you better.
😂 hahaha desperate??? Noticed u Just keep spewing out hate ... each post a different hate 😂 hahaha
Mine is on order with perforated leather strap 👍
Excellent. I hope it meets your expectations.
Shorter intro. No music needed. Thanks
For the first time ever I have seen an Omega I would buy. This watch is great.
Well if you want one just go to omega boutique in Liverpool there won't be a rush I was their Saturday at midday for over an hour and I was the only customer in the boutique . Or you could just wait six months and buy it for half the price this is why omega retail is dead.(Had to queue in Rolex ad the same day) Thanks John.
@@JohnBowman-ut4dz I live in France so Liverpool isn't an option for me. There's always people in the Rolex ADs here in Paris and they all want watches that are nigh on impossible to buy. I went to one last September, was treated very nicely, shown the watches I was interested in and they took all my details. I haven't heard a thing since.
@@borjastick hi thanks for your reply if it's the first time buying a watch from the Rolex ad you need to pop in every month or so to become more familiar with you and make a relationship with the same sales person.i no it seems a lot of faff but for the first watch is needed (took me just under 18 months) . It gets better when you have a sales history but don't ask for a Daytona as a first watch John.
@@JohnBowman-ut4dz😂 half price?😂 You know you're lying right? Rolex flipper?😂 Watcharts and c24 ... any speedmaster professional will sell above acquisition cost 5yrs onwards. What half price u talking about 😂 I bet you love Pinocchio.
Great video! Congrats on the watch 🙌
Fantastic video, been waiting for something like this! Speedy looks amazing. Editing was 10/10 👏
Thank you for your comments and support 🙏🏼☺️
I want to like it. I love the rear view. It's also well made.
The best looking speedmaster currently on the market. I think it looks much better on the rubber strap. Thanks for posting a great review!!
Maybe if you could actually get one
They'll be everywhere fairly soon.
Is this the black colorway?
Yes it is. Not many of these made.
@@aztime0 I cannot find anywhere on youtube the green version, interested in that one but would love to see it under a macro lens
Why don't they sell these anymore? I wanted one
The red one I mean
太美了 恭喜恭喜
Thank you
Nice soundtrack there! What's the taper on the rubber strap? Is it 16 mm at the clasp?
Hi, yes it's 16mm as well to match the bracelet. But if you want, there is a 20 to 18mm option, which allows you to use the regular clasps instead. But I wanted the smaller one.
Some of the older HORAGE videos when they were making them should have some footage of all the dials.
Nice job on the vid….I freakin love this white dial speedy…next on the list for me..,congrats!
Thank you for your support. Very pleased and grateful to have it. Hope you have a look at the other videos on the channel.
So jealous!!! You’re probably one of the first to truly unbox this new white Speedy! I placed a deposit mid-March and was told may take at least 6 months or until the end of the year perhaps. Can’t wait to get mine, will be my first Omega at that. Anyway, congrats on the watch and great video! Liked and subscribed.
Thank you, and I hope yours doesn't take too long. You might be right in that this is the first unboclxing video 😁
Impressive!
Great content! How long did you have to wait for the watch? I’m waiting on my full deposit to turn into a watch (paid on March 8th…)
I expressed an interest when it was announced, so really, not long at all. If you are in a rush, go to an OMEGA boutique rather than an AD. But these are not limited, so they will eventually be available everywhere.
Thanks! I did the same, placed my deposit at an OB. Hoping it arrives soon…in the meantime, I’ll just keep watching these videos..ha
Really nice. I've a real soft spot for white dials. Congrats on getting this one so early 👌🏻
Thank you. Very pleased to have it.
Nice! Didn't waste much time.
Thank you. I was hoping to wait until the end of this year, but when I got the call, I couldn't help myself 😅
Beautiful 🎉
I truly like this watch ! Ordered one but never got delivered to me! Screw FedEx.
Sorry to hear that. If you contact Elshan, I'm sure he can help.
He contact me. But nothing has been done as of yet. Thanks for your help.
can 5.5 inchs wear this:(
I'd say try it on before you buy it. My wrist is 6.75" for your reference.
That's pretty smart looking. 😍
When you actually wear it, doesnt feel right. The white SMP is much better
Song title?
Nice! 2 major advantages of Horage over other brands 1) The accurate in-house movement 2) thickness of their watches, not too chunky on the wrist.
I'm saving up for this exact one!
I received mine only two weeks ago. Beautiful watch. A keeper.
Congratulation!
