Any leaks yet?

I've heard rumours of an Omega Cheesy Side of the Moon; aka the 'Cheesemaster'

Swiss (cheese) master

Railmaster

Hey @gee_cee you might have posted this as a bit tongue in cheek...but I have taken the bait...and Omega does seem to be desperate to attract the "Millennials" and seem to have reached the conclusion that ceramic is some sort of "magnet" for the younger, less traditional watch buyer...so perhaps they could be considering a future ceramic Speedy LE Pro/FOIS with the1861 calibre?😲

With the Speedy LE Apollo XI 45 there is the "engineering" link with Ti being an aerospace material and you also have the clear references to the Lunar module (gold touches), moon surface (grey dial) etc.

The meteorite dial is also a logical option as shown on the Apollo-Soyuz LE.

I may be missing something...but I just can't see any link with "ceramic" and a celebration of a 60th anniversary Speedy LE.

If we were talking about some Space Shuttle program reference Speedy LE then I suppose with the Space Shuttle ceramic tiles you could have a vague justification for the use of ceramic? Perhaps a "blingy" effort? Black ceramic case and bezel with a white-mini-tiled textured dial and black registers? A bit too 116500 Daytona LN copycat though?

Just to be clear here...I have nothing against the XSOTM ceramic line, I think it was a good commercial move by Omega (with too many iterations though) as an effective modern showcase for the 9300 movement, which I imagine will very soon receive a master chronometer "upgrade".

Just struggling to see a connection between "ceramic" and a Speedy 60th Anniversary LE...

I will avoid the temptation to post the initial "comparison" thread...and wait patiently for a "Newbie" to initiate the discussion and calmly from the ringside observe the ensuing onslaught from certain OF senior members who apparently "despise" watch comparison threads😉...especially if "shock / jaw drop" they involve a Newbie who is not certain as to which watch to buy.😲

I will probably join the discussion a few days after the initial thread post, when hopefully the Newbie OP bashing part has ended.😁

A new pantone green speedmaster. Man on the grass edition.

LOL. Though I suppose a MOG edition could be a mellow Bob Marley reference as well, perhaps with a more suave palette?

This would sell pretty well in WA, CO, OR, and all the other states that have legalized "grass". [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

I thought this was about plumbing, and not that kind either.


Well, there's that too.
