The Omega Speedmaster is my favorite watch model. I love the design, history, and variation. The Speedy collection has now grown beyond a single case!

From left to right, top to bottom:

X-33 Marstimer (quartz)
Grey Side of the Moon meteorite dial
Racing dial in red
Heritage ‘57 in black/leather band
Heritage ‘57 in burgundy/bracelet
Moonphase in blue
Speedy Pro Apollo XVII Last Man on the Moon on red strap (early 2000s)
Speedy Pro series with display case back, copper movement decoration (mid 1980s)
Speedy Pro 145.022 with 321 movement (late 1960s) on leather strap
Speedy Pro with display case back (mid 1990s)
Speedy Pro w/Mitsukoshi dial & hands
Dark Side of the Moon Apollo 8
Ultraman edition
Speedy Pro Canopus
Apollo XIII 50th Snoopy
Hodinkee 10th anniversary edition

New Super Racing on order. Ironically one of the obvious models not here is a current series 3861 Speedy Pro, partly because I can’t decide which version to get.

Speedy lovers, what variants are your favorite?

Possibly wait till January to see if a new 3861 model drops for 2024. I would say likely the sapphire display caseback 3861 though since you’ve got a non-display version on the snoopy. Possibly a Sedna gold speedy on black rubber strap would be my personal next to this collection.

Very niche but the collection within the collection would be a display caseback for each movement variation, 321a/b, 861/3, 1861/3/6, 3861, etc.

Jealous of the Ultraman you got. Have a growing speedy collection myself as well.
