Omega Speedmaster Apollo 11 45th anniversary

Post by golfjunky »

I have followed this watch since last summer and with the market slumping a little I decided to pounce. A small bonus is that it is a 2014 year watch and 2nd daughter was born in 2014 so it will hopefully pass to her or maybe a grandson.

Very nice Greg. :thumbup:

I remember that one when originally released. Something different to a standard Moonwatch.

Very nice indeed, Greg. Top notch.

Is the final photo of the Omega NATO?

Thanks.

Yes it is, but too chunky for me.

I usually don’t have a taste for many of the offshoots of the original speedmaster. This is in a class of its own. Absolutely top tier. Congratulations!

You’ve definitely got a theme developing there, Greg. Another superb addition. :thumbup:
