The BIG story of the Omega Speedmaster Reduced.
Ойын-сауық
Many know the Speedmaster was originally designed as a motor sport racing watch, but with N.A.S.A certification it will be forever known as the Moon watch. However the smaller automatic version - The Speedmaster Reduced, would take up the challenge on the original promise of the designers of that first Speedmaster.

I love the elevator music for the astronaut shots.
The best video about speedy reduced!
The Omega Speedmaster reduced did fly in space, onboard space shuttle Columbia STS-94 ( Speedmaster Automatic Triple Date ) worn by astronaut Michael Gernhardt #MoonwatchUniverse

@@leivurjoensen190 Automatic wrist watches work very well in space as already in 1966 the Glycine Airman automatic pilot watch was won by Conrad on Gemini V and XI. During Skylab SL4 the first automatic chronographs were used (Carr's Movado Datachron HS360 and Pogue's Seiko 6139). #MoonwatchUniverse

@@phmwu7368 the whole point of a turbillion is to counter-act the effects of gravity. In zero g I presume you get all of that for free i.e. the movement works better not having gravity working against it.
Hi James, great vid and thanks for featuring my watch! -The Patina Log
The best and most informative video on speedy reduced! Thank you so much for this wonderful video
Cant wait to get my two-tone 175.0032 😍
Picked mine up a couple months ago. Real hidden gem that got an undeserved bad rap simply because it's not a moonwatch.

I have a 3539.50 Speedmaster Reduced and I don’t care at all about its reputation in watch community ! Wear it with pride since it’s a real GEM !

Yes. Which is crazy isn’t it, it’s getting flak for something it’s not. If the only criticism that can be levelled is something it’s not, then it can’t have many other faults if any. Otherwise that would be front and centre.
I like this style of vid. Reminds me of old school history vids.
Well done, thanks for pointing out the watches in the art of racing in the rain is actually a speedmaster reduced , and glad that I owned the speedmaster reduced sapphire version ❤️
Wonderful vid! I've recently started looking into acquiring an Omega Speedmaster reduced, and this vid is of great benefit for me. Thank you!
Awesome narrative! Yup, it's the watch I wear whenever I drive my sports car.
Thank you for that background story now I will try to find the mentioned movie The art of driving in the rain....
Great video mate! Have had my reduced for a couple of years now, and will never get rid of it. Love it to bits! Thanks for all the new information concerning the model. Just makes the watch even more interesting and fun! Thanks! Best Regards
Awesome mate!!! I’m waiting to get one next week!
Excellent video!
Thanks for making this.
Great Vid
Great documentary, but why can't the commentator pronounce anything right ? From "Omega", to "Valjoux", to "Schumacher", he mispronounces everything... Come on, it's not that hard !

You mean to say that you took the time to complain about pronunciation and you didn't say anything about how Dubois Depraz has become Dubois Dew-bwee? I guess you aren't multilingual either... oh the horror.
