Omega 311.12.42.30.01.001 Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday Ultraman SS Black Dial

Launched in 2018, the Omega Speedmaster 311.12.42.30.01.001 'Speedy Tuesday Ultraman' stands as a deliberate homage to the rare Speedmaster worn in the 1971 Japanese television series 'Return of Ultraman.' Part of the highly collectible Speedy Tuesday limited editions and released exclusively online, this reference seamlessly merges Omega's rich chronograph heritage with an iconic pop-culture legacy. It features a robust 42mm stainless steel case, the classic black step dial, and vibrant orange highlights inspired by the Ultraman character's signature colors. Inside beats the venerable Omega Caliber 1861, a hand-wound movement cherished for its direct lineage to the Moonwatch worn on lunar missions. The watch's 48mm lug-to-lug span and 13mm profile wear comfortably, making it suitable for both daily wear and collection. With a water resistance of 50 meters, it is practical without sacrificing vintage Moonwatch DNA. Notably, the orange central seconds hand references the original Ultraman, while the 3 o'clock subdial hides a silhouette visible under UV light. This piece is highly regarded among connoisseurs for its narrative depth, limited availability, and focused design ethos linking Omega's tool watch tradition to modern storytelling.
