c. 2018 Omega Speedmaster Racing Ref. 326.30.40.50.06.001 – 40mm Anthracite Dial, Full Set, Never Polished

Info

The Omega Speedmaster Racing reference 326.30.40.50.06.001 is one of the most refined and versatile interpretations within the Speedmaster family. While preserving the sporty DNA that has always defined the line, this model stands out for its coherent aesthetic, combining technical substance, functionality, and a sophisticated but never excessive look.

Its standout feature is the dark grey dial with a vertical teak deck finish, inspired by the Aqua Terra models. This textured surface adds depth and visual character, while the chronograph sub-dials, adorned with a “Clous de Paris” pattern, break up the monochrome with technical elegance. The contrast between the anthracite background, polished hands, and applied hour markers is perfectly balanced, ensuring excellent legibility in all lighting conditions. The darker tone of the dial makes this Speedmaster Racing particularly suitable for those who prefer a discreet yet refined presence on the wrist.

The 40 mm stainless steel case offers compact and well-proportioned dimensions, ideal for slimmer wrists or those seeking a more balanced chronograph size. Despite its 15 mm thickness due to the automatic movement, the watch remains comfortable thanks to a thoughtfully distributed weight. The solid case back, engraved with Omega’s iconic seahorse emblem, is a tribute to the brand’s heritage and adds a classic touch to the sporty appeal. The stainless steel bracelet, alternating polished and brushed surfaces, is robust, comfortable, and consistent with the overall aesthetic of the watch.

At its heart beats the reliable Omega calibre 3330, an automatic movement featuring a column wheel, silicon balance spring, and Co-Axial escapement. Its chronometric performance is COSC-certified, and it offers a 52-hour power reserve with reduced maintenance needs. The three-register chronograph layout and date window at 6 o’clock are symmetrically arranged and highly legible—one of the model’s strongest qualities.

The Omega Speedmaster Racing 326.30.40.50.06.001 is the perfect chronograph for those seeking an alternative to the more mainstream Moonwatch, without compromising on character, modern mechanics, or attention to detail. The anthracite dial with teak texture gives it a discreet yet unmistakable charm, making it suitable for both formal and sporty looks. A beautifully balanced timepiece that embodies the Racing spirit of the line, with a modern sobriety and functional elegance rarely found in this segment.
