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.

Condition
The watch is in overall excellent condition. The steel case has some light marks and a couple of small nicks. The case back features a well-defined hippocampus motif and serial number. The bezel shows some light scuffs, though the acrylic insert remains near mint. The dial and hands are near mint, while the acrylic crystal has several scratches and scuffs. The steel bracelet has light surface marks, some of the black enamel missing on the clasp text and light play between the links. The bracelet has 23 links, 6 of which are removable, and fits an approximately 8” wrist.
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.
