Speedmaster "Legend" is a sports chronograph by Omega.

In honor of the 7-fold automotive world champion in Formula 1, Michael Schumacher, Omega presented this anniversary model in early 2008.

Inside the new Speedmaster chronograph with a case of 44.25 mm diameter beats the automatic caliber Omega 3313, equipped with a high-quality column-wheel mechanism and the co-axial escapement patented by Omega. The movement is certified by the COSC and has a power reserve of 52 hours. The model is waterproof up to a depth of 10 atm.

The dial uses motifs from the Formula 1 and sets the tone with a sporty carbon patterning. The Arabic numerals 1 to 7 represent the impressive 7 world titles of Michael Schumacher. The model has a tachymeter scale, the typical feature of the Speedmaster series. This is provided with the sports performance by Michael Schumacher (world title, pole positions, podiums, number of race wins). The bracelet is available in stainless steel or black rubber, inspired by the tires of a Formula 1 car.
