The Omega Speedmaster is the chronograph line anchored by the Moonwatch, NASA flight-qualified for every crewed Apollo mission and the first watch worn on the Moon in 1969. The Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch is where most buyers start: a 42mm steel chronograph with a tachymeter bezel and the hand-wound Caliber 3861 Co-Axial Master Chronometer. The line runs beyond it, with the Speedmaster '57, the ceramic Dark Side of the Moon, and the Chronoscope. La Maison Monaco is an authorized Omega dealer in Canada, with CAD pricing and 0% Flexiti financing.
The Speedmaster Moonwatch is the watch that earned the Speedmaster its place in history. NASA flight-qualified it for crewed spaceflight in 1965, and it became the first watch worn on the Moon when Apollo 11 landed in 1969, which is where the Moonwatch name comes from. The current Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch keeps that brief almost unchanged: a 42mm case, a tachymeter scale on the bezel, three chronograph sub-dials, and a hand-wound movement. Inside is the Caliber 3861, an Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer certified by METAS for chronometric accuracy and resistance to magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss, with a 50-hour power reserve. The Moonwatch is offered with two crystal options that change the look and the price. The hesalite version uses an acrylic crystal and a closed steel caseback, the closest to the watch NASA qualified. The sapphire-sandwich version adds a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and a sapphire caseback that shows the movement. Both are genuine Moonwatches; the choice is about heritage feel versus modern materials and a visible caliber.
The Speedmaster sub-collections
The Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch is the anchor, but the line runs wider. The Speedmaster '57 is the heritage-styled version with a cleaner two-register dial and straight lugs inspired by the 1957 original, sized for everyday wear rather than spaceflight. The Dark Side of the Moon is the Speedmaster reimagined in a single block of black ceramic, with matching ceramic variations across the Moonphase and Apollo 8 editions for buyers who want the silhouette in a modern, lighter, scratch-resistant material. The Speedmaster Racing brings sportier dials, a date, and an automatic Master Chronometer movement for those who want the look with the convenience of self-winding and a calendar. Rounding out the family are the 38mm Speedmaster, a smaller chronograph built for slimmer wrists and often dressier dials, and the Speedmaster Chronoscope, which adds tachymeter, telemeter, and pulsometer scales for a vintage instrument-panel dial. Each sub-collection answers a different brief, from the purist manual Moonwatch to a daily-wear automatic, and the variants in stock are shown on the grid.
How much is an Omega Speedmaster in Canada?
Omega Speedmaster pricing in Canada spans a wide CAD range because the line covers everything from a hand-wound steel Moonwatch to ceramic and precious-metal editions. As a guide, the steel Professional Moonwatch sits at the entry point of the line, the Racing and '57 land in the mid range, and the Dark Side of the Moon ceramic and gold references rise from there. The exact CAD price depends on the reference, the case material, whether you choose the hesalite or sapphire crystal, and the bracelet or strap, so we publish the current price on each product page rather than a single figure here. La Maison Monaco prices every Speedmaster in Canadian dollars with no currency conversion to estimate, ships across Canada, and offers 0% Flexiti financing on eligible references, on approved credit.

Frequently asked questions
How much does an Omega Speedmaster cost in Canada?+
Omega Speedmaster pricing in Canada covers a broad CAD range. The hand-wound steel Professional Moonwatch is typically the entry point to the line, with the Racing, '57, ceramic Dark Side of the Moon, and precious-metal references rising from there. Because the price depends on the exact reference, case material, crystal, and bracelet or strap, the current CAD price for each Speedmaster is shown on its product page in the live grid.
Should I choose the hesalite or sapphire Moonwatch?+
Both are genuine Speedmaster Professional Moonwatches with the same Caliber 3861. The hesalite version uses an acrylic crystal and a closed steel caseback, the closest to the watch NASA qualified, and tends to be the more affordable option. The sapphire-sandwich version adds a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and a display caseback that shows the movement, at a higher price. Choose hesalite for heritage feel and value, sapphire for modern durability and a visible caliber.
Which Speedmaster should I buy first?+
For most buyers the Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch is the one to start with, since it is the original space-qualified chronograph and the reference the rest of the line is built around. If you prefer a self-winding watch with a date for daily wear, the Speedmaster Racing or '57 is a better fit, and if you want a smaller case the 38mm is worth a look. Compare the references in stock on the grid to match the size and movement to how you will wear it.
Is the Speedmaster still made, and does it still carry its space heritage?+
Yes. The Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch is in current production with the Caliber 3861 Co-Axial Master Chronometer, and it remains the watch NASA flight-qualified for crewed spaceflight and the first worn on the Moon in 1969. That heritage is core to the line, and the modern Moonwatch keeps the 42mm case, tachymeter bezel, and hand-wound chronograph layout of the watch that made the name.

Every Speedmaster is sourced directly from Omega, matches its official reference number, and carries the full Omega manufacturer warranty honored by Omega's own service network.
