Overview
The Omega Speedmaster Racing Co-Axial Chronograph reference 326.30.40.50.01.001 is a 40 mm stainless steel sports chronograph produced between 2012 and 2016. It pairs a black dial with the in-house Calibre 3330, bringing Co-Axial escapement technology to the storied Speedmaster Racing sub-line. The result is a legible, motorsport-inspired instrument that sits squarely within Omega's broader push toward manufacture-level movements during that era.
History
The Speedmaster Racing name has long evoked the brand's deep ties to motorsport, tracing its roots to earlier Speedmaster variants designed with the visual language of racing dashboards and timing equipment. This reference was introduced in the early 2010s as part of Omega's concerted effort to equip the Speedmaster family with Co-Axial calibres, reducing friction and service intervals compared to traditional lever escapements. Produced through the mid-2010s, it occupied a distinct niche between the heritage-focused Moonwatch and the more contemporary Speedmaster lines. Collectors regard it as a transitional piece that documents Omega's movement modernisation programme within an iconic case family.
Notable points
- Calibre 3330 features a Co-Axial escapement, a silicon balance spring, and a column-wheel chronograph mechanism.
- The 40 mm stainless steel case offers a slightly more wearable diameter than the classic 42 mm Moonwatch.
- A black dial with a motorsport-influenced layout reinforces the Racing sub-line's connection to circuit timing aesthetics.
- Production spanned approximately 2012 to 2016, making surviving examples a defined chapter in Speedmaster history.
- The Co-Axial escapement reduces sliding friction at the escapement, contributing to longer intervals between servicing.
