Not exactly a screw...but both dial feet clamps are not installed.
If the new movement is so subtly different (few interchangeable parts, etc.), shouldn’t it be called 321a or 321x or something to save any confusion? At first glance they look identical
It's the 321B...

··Omega Qualified WatchmakerAh I see. Yes until a few days ago I had never seen an 1861 or 33x3 movement Speedy made in the past 18 years outside the 77-79m range, but then Al confirmed authenticity on a 1861 Moonwatch with an 88m serial, so it looks like they are using a block in the high 80s for Speedmasters too. Maybe they got to 79m and started again at 88m. Other Omega serials have already hit the 100m mark and a new scheme seems to be in place for some watches using letters and numbers eg Axxxxxx
BTW first thing I did when the picture was posted by the OP is to look up the serial number to see if would coincide with an actual watch model...came back as "no results found"...

·Any credit/info on the source of this pic?
I see now that this photo was released in connection with the earlier release of the Speedmaster Moonwatch 321 Platinum.
In which case, at least two other marketing photos from Omega have shown other movements from that watch (also starting with 887X):
Presumably there are no differences with the 321B (?) going into the Platinum from those going into the Ed White.

·They also come back as "no results found"...
Could be these are all what they appear to be: marketing renderings with made up S#s... note that the photo of the movement alone I posted above was released when the platinum was announced, while the photo of the Ed White caseback above contains the same S# movement...
