The Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon (2025) — Ceramic Perfection Revisited
Omega has quietly refined one of its most talked-about modern icons: the Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon. Originally launched in 2013, this line turned heads with its full ceramic case and deep, matte finish that looked like it had been carved straight out of lunar rock. Now, in October 2025, Omega revisits that legacy with a series of subtle yet meaningful upgrades—proof that even a classic can still evolve.
This year’s update includes four new models, all built around the same 44.25 mm ceramic case architecture that made the original so distinctive. Omega’s engineers reworked the profile slightly—polishing the bevels and tightening tolerances—to make the watch feel slimmer and more refined on the wrist. The dials are now crafted from laser-brushed ceramic plates, giving the surface a crisp texture that catches light differently depending on the angle. It’s a small change, but it makes the watch feel more alive.

Inside, you’ll find updated Co-Axial Master Chronometer calibres—Omega’s in-house movements known for durability, magnetic resistance, and precise timekeeping. Some models use the automatic Calibre 9900, while others go manual-wind with the Calibre 9908 or 3869 for a purist’s experience. Either way, you’re getting a display caseback showing off the movement’s Geneva stripes and industrial beauty. It’s technical art, done the Omega way.
As of mid-October 2025, the new Dark Side of the Moon lineup is officially available through Omega boutiques and select authorized dealers worldwide. Availability will vary by region, but most U.S. boutiques are already receiving stock. If you’ve been waiting for an Omega that blends innovation, craftsmanship, and that subtle stealth appeal, this is the one worth trying on in person.
