Omega Speedmaster “Broad Arrow” – Reference 3551.50.00 (2006)

Heritage Narrative

Inspired by the 1957 Speedmaster—Omega’s first chronograph launched into space—the “Broad Arrow” series revives the original arrow‑shaped hands while introducing modern mechanics. This stainless‑steel reference  3551.50.00 retains the heritage cues of the early Speedmasters: a crisp “TACHYMÈTRE BASE 1000” scale on a steel bezel, pump pushers, and a tricompax dial layout. Inside, Omega’s chronometer‑certified Calibre 3303 brings contemporary reliability with a column‑wheel chronograph, free‑sprung balance, and 52‑hour power reserve. The watch is fitted to a period‑correct 1620/887 solid‑link bracelet, completing a package that blends mid‑century design with modern performance.
