    We already showed you the Omega Speedmaster Grey Side of the Moon, or Lunar Dust as it was called at the time of introduction in BaselWorld. However, Omega is now officially introducing it to the public as ‘Grey Side of the Moon’, on Speedy Tuesday. The Speedmaster Grey Side of the Moon didn’t change since we’ve seen it in Basel actually. The platinum dial, the grey ceramic case and of course the awesome looking alligator strap all remained the same.

    Nice article - some interesting comparisons to the DSOM I noticed:

    Lume on the Tacymètre and crown looks great.
    Subsidiary dials are dished into the Pt dial vs. a raised applied ceramic ring as on the DSOM.
    Date window is stepped vs. the simple cut in the ceramic DSOM dial.
    Clasp is matching gray ceramic and has the same design so you can swap the DSOM fabric strap instead of the gray alligator if you prefer.

    I find the colour striking of the GSOM.

    I'd love to see all three of the DSOM, GSOM and 45th Anniversary in a photo to see which dial colour in the comparison wins for next watch to add to the collection.

    The Grey Side looks more attractive than the Dark Side to me.

    Me too, I love the sort of gunmetal grey brown of the case

    I'm thinking between the GSOM and the 45th Anniversary. The Grey colour is striking.
