Omega Speedmaster

About this reference

The Omega Speedmaster Professional reference 311.30.42.30.01.005 was produced from approximately 2014 until its discontinuation in early 2021. Collectors target this reference as the final standard-production Moonwatch to feature the manual-wind Calibre 1861 movement and a hesalite crystal. It utilizes a 42mm stainless steel case with a solid caseback and 20mm lug width. This specific reference is noted for its "big box" presentation set, which included NATO and astronaut-style straps, a loupe, and a branded paperweight. On the secondary market, examples typically trade between $4,500 and $6,500 depending on condition and the inclusion of the original accessories. A notable variant within the 311 prefix family is the "Silver Snoopy Award" 45th Anniversary limited edition (311.32.42.30.04.003), which features a white dial and ceramic bezel, often commanding prices exceeding $40,000 at auction and through private dealers.
