The Speedmaster was first launched in 1957 and was originally designed as a sports and racing chronograph in conjunction with Omega's partnership as the official timekeeper of the Olympic games. It was powered by the manually wound Omega Calibre 321, developed in 1946 by Albert Piguet of Lemania, which had been acquired in 1932 by Omega's parent company, SSIH.
