Omega Dark Side Appraisal

Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon Watch

The item is a luxury chronograph wristwatch, specifically identified as an Omega Speedmaster 'Dark Side of the Moon' model. It features a dark grey or black ceramic case and bezel, giving it a sleek, stealthy appearance. The dial is also dark grey, likely ceramic or a similar high-tech material, with three sub-dials characteristic of a chronograph: a small seconds sub-dial at 9 o'clock, a 12-hour counter at 6 o'clock, and a 30-minute counter at 3 o'clock. The hour markers are applied gold-toned or rose-gold colored indices, matching the hands, which are also gold-toned and feature luminous inserts for readability in low light. A date window is present at 6 o'clock, distinguishable by its light background and dark numerals. The bezel includes a tachymeter scale, marked in white, for measuring speed over a known distance. The watch is fitted with a dark, possibly alligator or crocodile patterned leather strap with visible stitching, complementing the dark aesthetic of the case. No significant wear or damage is immediately apparent on the watch face or case in the provided image; the crystal appears clear and free of scratches. The craftsmanship indicates a high-end luxury timepiece, known for precision engineering and robust construction. The 'Dark Side of the Moon' moniker implies a modern, perhaps post-2010, production period for this specific ceramic Speedmaster variant, drawing inspiration from space exploration. The watch appears to be in excellent pre-owned condition, with little to no visible signs of wear on the case and crystal, though the leather strap's condition might require closer inspection for creases or scuffs.
