Any other track & field fans notice Noah's Speedmaster? He is an Omega Ambassador & wears several pieces, but this one appears to be one of his favorite.

It's a nice watch. I don't recall seeing people actually wearing watches while competing, but I also haven't followed this stuff it a while.

Nice watch.

Noah Lyles has been wearing various Omega watches for his meets. I know he's worn this one and that one AT Ultra Light watch that's like $50k USD.

Wayde van Niekerk wears his RM while competing.

That's pretty cool! The watches are well capable, so good to see them being used. I doubt swimmers would, but this would also be nice to see.

Swimmers shave and wear special suits to minimize drag, I cant imaging wearing a watch for competition

Exactly, Michael Phelps was an ambassador for a while and obviously never competed with a watch on.

IMO, he's the best athlete to be wearing a Speedy! He has a chance for Gold medals in the 100, 200, & the 4x100. It is a great piece!

I was fortunate to have dinner with the Triple Jump Olympic Champion, Christian Taylor, and he was wearing the Omega Ultralight. I mistakenly commented on it thinking it was an older AT.
He actually took off the UL and let me try it on. Really good dude. He’s also an Omega ambassador.
