Introduction

Linked to iconic F1 world champion, Michael Schumacher, the Omega Speedmaster Reduced ref. 3510.81 features the Speedmaster Reduced’s usual 39mm stainless steel case and movement in collaboration with a unique blue dial design that pays homage to Michael and his unique place within F1. With its blue center, thick white chapter ring and large white indices, the ref. 3510.81 is a wonderfully legible timepiece that is immediately recognisable on the wrist. Featuring ‘ghost’ hands that float above the dial as their stem blends into the dial, the ref. 3510.81 is an interesting timepiece to enjoy as its dial design is that little bit more unusual. With red chronograph hands enhancing legibility and toning down the Speedmaster’s tool watch design that little bit more, the ref. 3510.81 is a colorful timepiece, and an easy one to enjoy wearing.

THE DIAL

Sporting a rich blue dial with a white chapter ring and thick white indices, this example's 'ghost' hands seemingly float on top of the dial with their blue stem blending into the dial beneath them.

THE CONSTRUCTION

Measuring 39mm in diameter and featuring the Speedmaster Reduced's construction, the ref. 3510.81 is a wonderful watch to wear that doesn't overpower the wrist.

TIMING MACHINE READOUT

This reading was taken (crown down) with a ONEOF Accuracy Boutique Edition timing machine at time of cataloging. It is provided as a courtesy only, and shall not be construed as a warranty or guarantee of any kind. Please refer to our terms and conditions of sale for more information.

Condition

Watch is in overall excellent condition. There is minor surface wear commensurate with use. Crystal has surface scratches as shown in the images. There are 21 links total on the watch, 4 of which are removable. There are also 2 extra links on the side. The band shows little stretch.

Our Perspective

A beautiful blue dial brings a delightful pop of color to the Speedmaster Reduced's famous tool watch design in a rather charming fashion.
