Model Reference
The Omega Speedmaster 324.30.38.50.01.001 made its debut in 2017 as part of Omega's Speedmaster 38 collection, a range developed to offer a more contemporary interpretation of the brand's famous chronograph line.
The personality of this reference comes from its proportions. While many modern chronographs have grown steadily in size, the 38mm case of the 324.30.38.50.01.001 takes a more measured approach, creating a watch that feels refined rather than imposing.
Its black dial maintains the sporting character expected from a Speedmaster, with chronograph indications arranged in a clear and balanced layout. A tachymeter scale frames the display, preserving one of the collection's most recognisable visual signatures.
Protection is provided by sapphire crystal, chosen for its durability and resistance to everyday wear. The stainless steel bracelet integrates smoothly with the case and is secured by a deployment clasp for added comfort and security.
Unlike many Speedmasters that rely on manual winding, this reference is driven by an automatic movement. Combined with 100 metres of water resistance, it is designed to fit naturally into daily life without sacrificing the chronograph functionality that defines the collection.
The story of the Speedmaster is often told through racing circuits, space missions, and professional timing. The 324.30.38.50.01.001 follows a different path. Rather than focusing on historical milestones, it reflects how modern watch ownership has evolved.
Many buyers admire the appearance of a chronograph but want something that feels versatile enough for everyday use. Omega recognised this shift and developed the Speedmaster 38 collection to answer that demand. The result is a watch that retains the visual confidence of the Speedmaster name while introducing a more approachable size and an automatic movement.
Instead of being defined by a single historic event, this reference is defined by adaptability. It was created for wearers seeking a Speedmaster that works just as comfortably in everyday settings as it does within a collection.
