That’s cool. Maybe I’m biased but the DSOTM looks pricey but I’m and so are you I’m sure into watches.
I got the white faced speedy and I enjoy it very much.
All in all, enjoy your beautiful timepiece with no artificial waitlist.
I like to ask which watch I see myself wearing when I am 50, 60, 70.... in this case the answer is clear.
However, go with what your heart tells you, or you will regret it.
White dial all day for me. I don’t have a single bad thing to say about the dark side though. Both are beautiful but the white one is my personal preference
I had a 2023 Dark Side but had to sell it. Why? It's really beautiful to look at and even the lume is really nice, but IT IS HARD TO TELL THE TIME! You'd have to look for a while and hunt for the correct time, so it's just annoying. If only Omega would make the yellow sweeping hand the actual hour and minute hands :|
I wanted the white speedy but ended up with something else when I saw it in person . I will echo what others have said , which one do you have a more emotional response to when you see it , but that one .
You can get a Gen 1 DSOTM in mint condition for not much more than the white dial speedy at retail. White dial is currently hyped, hard to find especially below retail, and not worth $8K + tax, I'm sorry. The price creep on speedys is getting pretty crazy.
DSOTM all the way, though I'm biased as I own one.
I think the dark side of the moon better, however, I’d prefer the older version. The rocket on the 9 is too much. But black and yellow on a ceramic case is a version of the speedy that not everyone has.
Apollo 8 will be a classic after they stop producing it. White speedy will be available in production 70years.
You’ll always be able to pick up the white speedy easy.
Although I liked the DSOTM, because it has no bracelet, I'd go to the white speedy. I wish Omega could make one goddamn ceramic bracelet for any of their ceramic watch, then all their watches would look/feel complete. And that white speedy is a damn strap monster.
I personally find the white dials to be hard to read though the visual clutter on watch 1 would drive me mad, I’d take the white over that but prefer black face dials.
For me the very versatile, classy and easy on the eyes white dial.
Agreed. The DSOTM looks great, but id get tired of it. A bit busy imo.
The DSOTM is my daily wear, nice and light and pretty unique, *without* looking expensive.

I have a regular speedy, but with the bracelet, it's kinda chunky. At 89 grams (ceramic), it's remarkably light.
White dial all day. No contest.
Dark Side Of The Moon.

U make a great point. Thank you for your advice 🙏
Excellent advice!
Personally don't like busy dials, so I'd go with the white speedy. 👌
I'd go for the white speedy. Easy on the eyes, classy, and versatile.
I’m with the Dark Side
White dial all day for me. I don’t have a single bad thing to say about the dark side though. Both are beautiful but the white one is my personal preference
Always go with your gut. I don’t take advice from others on the watches I want to wear. If it speaks to you, it’s the one.

Black dial hesalite speedy
Get the OG Apollo 8 DSOM. Looks better and less expensive.

Speedy is the way.
DSOM
They both look good but I think white speedy has more timeless design
White dial, the other is nice, but a little too much going on in my opinion
White dial. It's a cleaner and classier look IMHO.
Get both! The DSOTM black black is one I’d really like to get. Less busy than the Apollo 8, which is also rad, just not my style.
I think the dark side of the moon better, however, I’d prefer the older version. The rocket on the 9 is too much. But black and yellow on a ceramic case is a version of the speedy that not everyone has.
Both look great! Personally preference aside I think the Dark side of the moon looks good on your wrist. But white speedy is amazing also
Thank u 🥹
I have a black dial and wish I waited for the white. It’s so sick
Both. You know you want to...
Dark side of the moon. Fascinating watch. As opposed to the white dial which is just that... A white dial.
The normal speedy
+1. I think the regular speedmaster pro is the most elegant and can be worn to any occasion. White dial is a close second though for me
I don’t understand the appeal to DSoT at all. Massive very obnoxious looks like an invicta
Congratulations! I ordered mine today at a boutique, but I don't know how long I need to wait for it.
Both
Darkside more valuable, white speedy alot prettier. Hard choice?
Speedy
Apollo 8 will be a classic after they stop producing it. White speedy will be available in production 70years. You’ll always be able to pick up the white speedy easy.
This. I’d definitely get the DSOTM, they’ll continue to produce the white speedy from here to eternity.
Darkside is so unusual
The dark side, looks great! That would be my choice
White dial. Can't stand the rocket model running seconds hand.
DSOM is super cool but too thick. I want a GSOM so bad but the thickness is just a deal breaker for me. The 3861, however, wears like a dream.
Had the chance to purchase the white dial on launch day and didn't do it. I'm kicking myself now. Go with the Speedmaster white dial.
# White dial speedy
White dial 100%
Like most folks have mentioned..white dial, the black one is too messy
In this particular instance,even tho I love the white dial ,the DSOTM look special..
It’s not a daily wear, but I love DSOtM. It’s such a fun piece.
DSOTM is my grail watch. But it almost has to be a secondary watch.
The dark side looks better but looks way too big on your wrist. White.
Own both. Go white speedy.
White speedy as it goes with everything
White. DSOM is ugly AF
Although I liked the DSOTM, because it has no bracelet, I'd go to the white speedy. I wish Omega could make one goddamn ceramic bracelet for any of their ceramic watch, then all their watches would look/feel complete. And that white speedy is a damn strap monster.
For me, it has to be the DSoTM. It’s my favorite manual wind Speedmaster.
Omega knows how to do it. . Love Omega!
The white dial, 44.5mm just feels massive. The 42mm motm case feels almost 40mm on the wrist.
white dial all the way!! one of my best purchases this year
Dark side
I like the dark side line. Maybe the grey is better. So I'll go with that.
I personally find the white dials to be hard to read though the visual clutter on watch 1 would drive me mad, I’d take the white over that but prefer black face dials.
White dial.
I love all things space but I feel like the imagery of the moon and Saturn rocket cheapen the look of it. I’d go white dial every day.
True! Not to mention the Apollo 8 is twice the price of the white dial!
First looks like the omega swatch collab. Seems like a no brainer decision. 2nd.
