N1 Factory Edition — Vintage Calfskin Strap
The N1 Factory (N1F) execution of the Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon Vintage Black stands as a notable technical achievement in ceramic case manufacturing. Diverging from standard steel PVD treatments, this 44.25mm chronograph utilizes a solid block of black zirconium oxide (ZrO2) ceramic, matching the genuine’s specific brushed and polished finishing profile.
Powered by the N1 Custom Caliber 9300, this movement features a fully functional co-axial double-hand counter at the 3 o’clock sub-dial, accurately tracking both elapsed hours and minutes on a single axis. Operating at 28,800 vph, it delivers approximately 40 hours of power reserve while maintaining reliable chronograph engagement.
The laser-ablated matte black ceramic dial successfully replicates the micro-grain texture of the genuine, providing a stark backdrop for the vintage brown Super-LumiNova indexes and blackened hands. The case measures precisely 44.25mm in diameter with a 17.8mm thickness, weighing in at a substantial 108 grams, securing to the wrist via a distressed calfskin strap with a ceramic-capped folding clasp.
