The Omega Speedmaster Moonphase Master Chronometer Chronograph is a welcome addition to the Speedy collection and we're pretty excited to see this one in person in a few weeks. There have been many, many variations on the Speedmaster Professional since they first came out all the way back in 1957, but we think this one is really attractive. There's something about the combination of more classic, even dressy, details – like the moon-phase aperture and the sub-dial for the date, with its red-horn-tipped date hand, that just really works with the more utilitarian feel of the Speedmaster – a testimony perhaps to the strength of the original design.

The retail price for the new Moonphase Master Chronometer Chronograph is CHF 9,400. Be sure to check back here in March for hands-on photos and more information.
