The Most Admired Sports Watch “Alaska Project” Speedmaster

The “Alaska Project” Speedmaster is a further upgraded manual Speedmaster after the Speedmaster landed on the moon. The most striking feature is a huge red aluminum shell to resist high temperatures. At the same time, the small chronograph dial of the watch uses a unique “rocket” shaped small pointer. The white dial is to better reflect sunlight and heat. In 1977, Soviet astronauts wore the “Alaska Project” Speedmaster in space (specifically “Alaska II”, I is a titanium shell, II is a steel shell, and the dial has also been adjusted).

The new white dial Speedmaster 3861 has a very high quality dial. The texture of the white lacquer surface is very delicate. The layering in the center of the disk and the depression of the small counter are very smooth, giving people the illusion of an “enamel disk”. The glossy white lacquer dial is also used for the first time on a manual moon landing Speedmaster. The raised box-shaped mirror further enhances the dial effect. Although the dial is all white, the details are still there. The recessed small counter is still decorated with a record pattern. The best Omega Speedmaster replica watches at captainthewatch.is.

Different from the black dial Speedmaster 3861, the new white dial time scales are all three-dimensional K gold time scales inlaid on the dial. In order to match the white color of the dial, the K gold time scales and hands are black-plated. Previously, K gold hour markers only appeared on the gold-cased Speedmaster 3861. The black plate Speedmaster 3861 uses printed “paint time scales”. This time, the new white dial is consistent with the gold watch in terms of time scale, and surpasses the black dial model in terms of luxury. At the same time, the Omega “resistance” logo on the disk is also three-dimensionally inlaid. The red Speedmaster English, paired with the white dial, naturally reminds people of the Speedmaster “Alaska Project”.
