OmegaSpeedmaster

The Speedmaster Professional is one of the true greats of modern watchmaking, with a timeless design that has changed very little in over 50 years of production. A watch with terrestrial routes that was initially designed for motor racing, it’s become synonymous with space travel and exploration thanks to its long association with NASA and appearances on the wrists of astronauts. This reference is a modern-day iteration of the “moon watch”, matching the specifications approved by NASA for manned space missions. 

The 42mm case features a Hesalite crystal made from thermoplastic and is designed not to shatter - a potential hazard in a zero-gravity environment. The dial is designed with legibility in mind and features a matte black finish with contrasting white hands, indices, and numerals. Housed inside the case is Omega’s tried and tested manually-wound calibre 1861, which has a 48-hour power reserve.

This 2019 example is presented with its box, warranty card, pictograms card, sleeve, operating instructions, tool, spare factory strap and loupe. The watch’s condition is within the bounds of the seller’s A grading.
