Case And Dial

The Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon Sedna Black 311.63.44.51.06.001 is presented in a brushed black ceramic case, measuring 44.25mm in diameter. While the ceramic construction adds a futuristic touch to the watch, it also ensures exceptional durability, preserving its pristine appearance for years. Crafted using zirconium dioxide, this highly scratch-resistant material is employed to construct the case, pushers, crown, and dial, resulting in a timepiece that is visually striking and exceptionally durable. Enhancing its luxurious appeal, this Dark Side of the Moon Sedna Black features 18K Sedna™ gold on the tachymeter bezel, exuding refinement and elegance.

The dial on this Dark Side of the Moon is a testament to Omega’s commitment to precision and legibility. It carries Sedna gold hour indexes and hands in striking contrast to the stealthy matte grey shade that covers the dial’s expanse. The markings on the dial are done using laser ablation, showcasing meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail. These markings include minute markers on the outer ring, discreet sub-register in a horizontal setup, and signature text at 12 and six o’clock. Such laser-ablated marks add a unique visual appeal and a sense of depth to the overall design. The dial, combined with the black ceramic case, creates a harmonious and sophisticated aesthetic.

Movement

At the heart of the Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon Sedna Black beats the Omega Co-Axial automatic calibre 9300, showcasing a perfect blend of captivating aesthetics and impressive technical features. This in-house movement is a column wheel chronograph with a two-register dial layout.

The calibre 9300 features a silicon balance spring on free-sprung balance to facilitate exceptional precision and stability by allowing more precise adjustments and better resistance to external shocks. The use of silicon enhances the movement’s resistance to magnetic fields, a common threat to the accuracy of mechanical timepieces in our modern environment. Omega’s commitment to performance is further exemplified by a series-coupled double barrel configuration, providing an impressive power reserve of 60 hours.
