Omega Speedmaster 9300 – 9300 ’57 331.10.42.51.01.001

 

This article was originally published on August 12th, 2013. 

With pictures by our friends over at AceJewelers.com, we thought it time for a small comparison between the two versions of the Speedmasters powered by Caliber 9300 that are available thus far: the Moonwatch 9300 and the ’57 9300.

You might have read in many reviews that the difference in size is quite big: 44.25mm for the Moonwatch versus 41.5 for the ’57. While to us it did appear that the ’57 is smaller at first glance, ‘less bulky’ might actually be a better term. Slimmed down perhaps. Or even trimmed down.

The bigger 3:00 and 9:00 subdials create somewhat of a trompe l’oeil. In full-frontal the ’57 appears more refined, carrying less heft – the lugs appear to be considerably thinner and the lack of crown protectors plays a major role as well. But to cut a long story short – the bezel width is near identical, as is the dial opening. Most of the mm’s we think are shaved off the case-band. That is – said protectors and the famous Omega curve that the Moonwatch 9300 does possess.

The bracelets couldn’t be more different, although both are based on the well-known three-bits-per-link design. The 9300 has the bracelet that we’ve come to know very well in the last two decades – with the subtle polished ridges on the mid links. The ’57 bracelet harks back to early bracelet used in the CK-2915, CK-2998 and other early Speedmasters. It seems rather elegant. It does feature huge polished areas, which we suspect are prone to desk diving marks.

As seen in this 3:00 profile shot, there is little to no difference in height. The ’57 measures in at 16.5mm, similar to that of the Moonwatch 9300.

This shot in particular displays the more refined and slim nature of the new bracelet. It suits a watch that is an homage to watches from days gone by rather well we think.

Again it’s been a while since we’ve written about the Omega Speedmaster 57 9300. This model seems to be flying a bit under the radar.. and we’re not sure that’s fair.

The Omega Speedmaster 57 9300, in this case reference 331.10.42.51.01.001, mixes elements of  iconic models from rich history of the Speedmaster with Omega’s latest technology.

The picture above shows the case, which is inspired by the very first Speedmaster. The stainless steel, engraved bezel and case sans crown guards are all modeled after the CK2915 – of course updated to today’s standards.

The dial too is a nod to Speedmasters of days gone by. While it follows the layout that is dictated by the 9300 movement, the Alpha hands (not to be confused with the Dauphine style) are a throwback to the second generation of Speedmasters, the CK2998-gen. On the subdial at 3:00, we find another homage to the CK2915: the return of the broad arrow hand.

Today we had the opportunity to shoot a few pics of the fresh BaselWorld 2013 Speedmaster 9300 ’57 reference 331.10.42.51.01.001 – and it’s a stunner!

The CK2915-style case measures 41.5 mm, which makes it considerably smaller than the regular Speedmaster 9300. The straight lugs and lack of crown guards give this watch a very distinct vintage feel, enhanced by the elegant bracelet.
