The Omega Speedmaster Canopus Gold
Omega introduced to us the new Moonwatch for the coming years, or perhaps even for the next decades. Two of these Moonwatch models are in precious metal. One is in Sedna Gold, Omega’s own rose gold alloy. The other one is in Canopus Gold, Omega’s white gold formulation.
This white gold Moonwatch looks beautiful, with its silvery dial with a sunburst finish. It’s the same that we’ve seen on previous white gold Speedmaster models. To the untrained eye, it looks like a steel watch with a silvery dial. But the moment you put it on the wrist, you know that it’s not. The weight of the Speedmaster Canopus Gold is a whopping 235 grams. This keeps you constantly aware you are wearing something precious.
The white gold alloy that Omega dubbed Canopus is not new. Well, at least it’s not new anymore. Omega has been using this 18K white gold alloy since 2015. It takes its name from the second brightest star in the sky. Not only is Canopus 71 times bigger than our sun, but it is also 10,000 times brighter. The special alloy that Omega uses — consisting of platinum, rhodium, palladium, and gold — is 100% noble and ensures that its whiteness and brilliance will last.
This Omega Speedmaster Canopus Gold is part of the regular collection, but I can imagine that it will not be in stock everywhere.
The retail price of the Omega Speedmaster Canopus Gold reference 310.60.42.50.02.001 is as impressive as its weight. It retails for €45,100 (incl VAT) / $45,300 (excl VAT) / CHF45,100 (incl VAT). You can also buy it on the leather strap, which drastically affects the price, of course. The reference 310.63.42.50.02.001 with leather strap and Canopus gold folding clasp is €30,200 (incl VAT) / $30,400 (excl VAT) / CHF30,300 (incl VAT).
