OmegaSpeedmasterModel No: 321.90.42.50.13.001

One of Omega’s linchpins — Speedmaster — began its journey in 1957 with a model called Broad Arrow. In honour of the watch that started it all, the brand relaunched the Broad Arrow in circa 2010, remaining loyal to the original design while adding a touch of the 21st century’s signature decadence. With this ref. 321.90.42.50.13.001, Omega successfully delivers vintage elements in a contemporary design, as the watch feels modern by all means.

It has a 42mm stainless steel case, touched by rose gold on the crown, pushers, and tachymeter bezel. The lugs feature impressive polished bevelled edges, and overall a brushed finish adorns the case. The dial bears familiarities with the OG model of the ‘57 where gold hour markers sit alongside the minute and second indexes, and the hands carry the identical broad arrow shape. The arrangement of the chronograph counters is also constant; however, a date window has been refreshingly added at six o’clock on this reference.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
