GulfGT40 3,162 Posted July 16, 2019 On this day the 16th of July 1969 Apollo 11 was launched destined for the moon. It still fills me with wonderment that we, evolved monkeys, made it that far, with the wars, fighting and general human nature happening on Planet Earth. Imagine how far we could have got if we worked together. Anyway for the next 8 days wear your Speedmasters with pride ladies and gents and post a pic of their earthly adventures. I'll set the ball rolling with my 45th anniversary on the golf course this morning (I'm no rocket scientist) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CurioLeo 296 Posted July 16, 2019 Omega made this watch to replace the Moonwatch - didn't quite work out that way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cap'n 930 Posted July 16, 2019 A watch I’d love, and was even going to buy the gen, but when I tried on in the AD was just too small for me. I even asked the assistant to double check it wasn’t the reduced version!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GulfGT40 3,162 Posted July 16, 2019 Almost as miraculous as the moon landing itself is this $40 gate cheapy, moon phase is a 24hour counter, day and date sub dials actually work and the power reserve lasts for a couple of days. I'm amazed! Looking forward to the 50th anniversary watch to be repped. https://www.omegawatches.com/watches/speedmaster/moonwatch/apollo-11-50th-anniversary/product Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
