Introduction
Linked to iconic F1 world champion, Michael Schumacher, the Omega Speedmaster Reduced ref. 3810.61.41 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 time with Ferrari. With its crimson center, thick white chapter ring and large white indices, the ref. 3810.61.41 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. 3810.61.41 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. 3810.61.41 is a colorful timepiece that celebrates the glory days of Schumacher's iconic and illustrious career as one of Formula One’s most celebrated drivers ever.

THE DIAL
Sporting a deep red dial with a white chapter ring and thick white indices that have since aged to a creamy yellow, this example's 'ghost' hands and yellow chronograph hands combine with each element of the watch's display to create a harmoniously executed dial full of character.
THE CONSTRUCTION
Measuring 39mm in diameter and featuring the Speedmaster Reduced's construction with its signature twisted lyre lugs, the ref. 3810.61.41 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 very good overall condition. Case shows some moderate surface wear, with various marks visible along the case, as well as some light wear on the back of the lugs from strap changes. Original red dial with nicely aged tritium indexes. The watch comes on a well worn original strap with its Omega signed tang buckle. Please note that the watch is ticking and appears to run at the time of cataloging, but the timekeeping is poor as indicated by the timing machine readout, and a service is recommended.
Our Perspective
A beautiful red dial brings a delightful pop of color to the Speedmaster Reduced's famous tool watch design in a rather charming fashion, while also allowing the ref. 3810.61.41 to celebrate Michael's career in a tasteful manner.
