Omega · Family: Speedmaster
The Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch (ref. 310.30.42.50.01.002) is the sapphire-crystal execution of Omega's manual-wind chronograph, sharing the same case, dial, and Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861 as the Hesalite version (ref. .001). Cazador has no verified price observations today. Its differential versus the .001 is strictly the crystal: scratch-resistant sapphire in place of the historic acrylic Hesalite.
Insufficient data
3 of 5 price observations needed to show a reliable range
Insufficient data: 3 observations recorded as of today. No price range is estimated until at least 5 verified observations exist.
The reference 310.30.42.50.01.002 is the sapphire-crystal execution of Omega's Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch, sold alongside the Hesalite-crystal 310.30.42.50.01.001. The two references share an identical case, dial layout, and movement; the only documented difference between them is the crystal material.
Like the .001, this reference runs the Calibre 3861, a manual-winding, Co-Axial Master Chronometer movement that Omega updated in 2021 with METAS certification for magnetic-field resistance and precision beyond standard COSC. Power reserve is approximately 50 hours.
The case carries the line's familiar specification: 42mm stainless steel, a black aluminum tachymeter bezel, and a black dial with the chronograph's three subdials. Water resistance is rated to 50 meters, appropriate for daily wear rather than diving.
The single distinguishing feature of the .002 is its sapphire crystal, in place of the .001's Hesalite (acrylic). Sapphire resists scratching far better in daily wear, but is more prone to shattering on a hard impact, whereas Hesalite scratches more easily but can be polished back to clarity. Omega keeps both variants in parallel production rather than replacing one with the other, letting buyers choose which trade-off they prefer.
The Speedmaster Professional family carries a long-documented association with NASA's crewed space program, the source of the 'Moonwatch' nickname [UNVERIFIED: specific mission dates, astronaut names, or individual flight details not provided in source data]. As of this writing, the .002 remains in Omega's current catalog and in active production, with no discontinuation announced.
Both share the same 42mm case, Calibre 3861 movement, and black dial. The only documented difference is the crystal: .002 uses sapphire, .001 uses Hesalite (acrylic).
Yes — this specific reference, .002, is fitted with a sapphire crystal. The visually identical .001 uses Hesalite instead.
It runs Omega's Calibre 3861, the same manual-winding, Co-Axial Master Chronometer movement fitted to the Hesalite .001, with roughly 50 hours of power reserve.
Cazador currently has no verified price observations for this exact reference, so we cannot publish a reliable range yet.
Sapphire resists everyday scratching far better, but is more prone to shattering on a hard impact. Hesalite scratches more easily but can be polished, which is why Omega sells both.
To let buyers choose between the historically faithful Hesalite crystal and the greater scratch resistance of sapphire, without changing any other part of the specification.
Yes. As of this writing, it remains part of Omega's current catalog and in active production.
