Omega Speedmaster Chronoscope

It was an era in which human ambition sought to achieve the impossible: the conquest of space. Amid this excitement, the Speedmaster appeared. Today it ranks among the most famous watch collections of all time and offers customers numerous lines within the collection. With the Chronoscope, Omega is proud to combine innovative strength in this now equally legendary line with the vintage charm of the 1940s.

Dial design takes center stage

The Speedmaster Chronoscope is not only a testament to Omega's watchmaking expertise, but also to the historical significance and function of chronographs across a variety of applications. The Chronoscope's dial features three special scales:

1. Tachymeter: This scale measures speed based on the distance traveled. It is a useful tool for anyone who wants to know the average speed over a given distance. It makes no difference whether the measured distance is given in miles or kilometers.
2. Telemeter: This scale can be used to measure the distance to an event that is both visible and audible, based on the speed of sound. This can be useful, for example, for determining the distance of an approaching thunderstorm.
3. Pulsometer: A specialized measuring instrument for determining the pulse rate. By starting the chronograph at the first heartbeats and stopping it after the thirtieth beat, the wearer can determine the heartbeats per minute. This is especially useful for medical professionals or athletes who want to check their own pulse or that of another person.

These three scales demonstrate the versatility of the Chronoscope and its ability to be useful in a variety of scenarios, from the race track to the hospital. They also represent the heritage and innovation of Omega watches, as they combine both historical features and modern technology in an elegant and functional design.

What does the name of the Omega Chronoscope mean?

The name "Chronoscope" is derived from the Greek word "Chronos," meaning "time," and "Skopein," meaning "to look" or "to see." A chronograph is all about the precise measurement and display of time intervals, and the word "Chronoscope" emphasizes this ability to visually represent and analyze time. The term "Chronoscope" reflects the importance of the utmost precision and technical sophistication and evokes an image of accurate timekeeping and observation. With the Omega Speedmaster Chronoscope, the name therefore not only refers to Omega's long tradition in the field of chronographs, but also emphasizes the advanced functions and design that invite the observer to contemplate and appreciate time in all its subtleties. It is thus about the art of timekeeping, in both technical and aesthetic terms.

A return to vintage roots

A look at three remarkable references shows how Omega preserves tradition while continuously pursuing innovation:

A touch of blue

What makes Chronoscope reference 329.30.43.51.03.001 special is its dark dial with a touch of blue and a contrast of silver hands and indices.
