Introduction
Launched in 1996 and linked to iconic F1 world champion, Michael Schumacher, the Omega Speedmaster Reduced ref. 3510.61 features the Speedmaster Reduced’s usual 39mm stainless steel case and movement in collaboration with a unique red dial design that pays homage to Michael and his start with Scuderia Ferrari. With its red center, thick white chapter ring, and large white indices, the ref. 3510.61 is a wonderfully legible timepiece that is immediately recognizable on the wrist. Featuring ‘ghost’ hands that float above the dial as their stem blends into the dial, the ref. 3510.61 is an interesting timepiece to enjoy as its dial design is that little bit more unusual. With yellow chronograph hands enhancing legibility and toning down the Speedmaster’s tool watch design that little bit more, the ref. 3510.61 is a colorful timepiece that celebrates the beginning of Schumacher's iconic time with one of Formula 1's most legendary and highly-celebrated teams.
