2015 Gold "First Omega In Space" Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch

Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch replica was a watch worn by astronaut Wally Shirra in 1962 during the NASA Sigma 7 mission where he orbited the earth. While this was not the first watch in space (that was a Russian timepiece), that 1962 mission marked the first time an Omega was in space. Thus, the Speedmaster "First Omega In Space" collection was born.

The case size which is a modest 39.7mm wide in a classic Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch style case. Omega opted to pair them with brown straps, in this case, a lovely matte alligator strap with white contrast stitching. At just under 40mm wide, this wears a lot like a dress watch, making it good for formal attire and long sleeves, but it still has that classic Omega Speedmaster look which is perpetually desirable.

What makes the panda-dial here a bit unique is the alternating rows of black and white rings that start with the black ceramic tachymetre bezel. The inner white dial with slightly recessed black subdials completes the panda dial look. There are a surprisingly small number of Omega Speedmaster watches with panda dials. Those that exist are collectors' favorites, and I very much welcome more panda dial-style Omega Speedmaster - especially classic-looking Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch models.

Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch First Omega In Space is water resistant to 50 meters and has a specially engraved caseback with the Speedmaster seahorse and the "First Omega In Space Numbered Edition" text. The case size, of course, is on the petite side, given that the largest Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Co-Axial Chronograph is over 44mm wide.
