If you look closely at the image from Skipdawg.
It reads 02:56 GMT on the dial in red,this indicates the exact time in which Neil Armstrong,
Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins had landed.
Over the years there have been numerous
Speedmasters. This watch commemorates
a very special event 40 years ago.
Some of you have given this watch
a "thumbs up" or a "cool rating."
Imagine, if you placed this watch
next to the 2003 Omega "Snoopy"
Edition Speedmaster.
About the Snoopy Edition Speedmaster.
The Snoopy Award design is etched and painted on the sapphire crystal case back. OMEGA received this award, the highest distinction from NASA astronauts, on 5 October 1970 in recognition of its vital role in the safe return to Earth of the Apollo 13 mission.
However, in my honest opinion.
I still prefer the original Omega
Speedmaster with the Caliber 321.
This movement has the very rare swan neck regulator,that the Caliber 861 and 1861 lack.
