Omega Speedmaster Apollo 8 Ceramic Mens Watch O31192443001001
£8,710.00As a part of all six moon landings in history, the legendary OMEGA Speedmaster is a true icon of space as well as OMEGA’s pioneering spirit.
In this 44.25 mm model, the Speedmaster’s lunar history is celebrated on the blackened movement, which has been laser-ablated to represent the moon’s surface. The near side can be seen through the blackened skeletonised dial, while the far side can be seen through the caseback.
Presented on a perforated black leather strap with a yellow rubber interior, the entire watch is black ceramic and includes varnished yellow chronograph hands and a Super-LumiNova tachymeter scale.
The specially decorated movement inside is the OMEGA Calibre 1869, while the engravings on the caseback include “APOLLO 8, DEC 1968”, “DARK SIDE OF THE MOON”, and “WE’LL SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE.”
Calibre Omega 1869: Manual-winding chronograph movement. A Moon-relief textured and blackened version of the 1861 calibre which equipped the famous and contemporary Speedmaster Moonwatch.
FEATURES
Ceramic Watch: A casebody created from a single block of pressed ceramic, which is first heated in an oven and then three-dimensionally machined. OMEGA's ceramic watch cases are extremely scratch-resistant and shock-resistant.
Chronograph: The chronograph function is a mechanism for measuring time intervals. A chronograph watch can therefore be used to time events while displaying the time like any traditional watch.
Small Seconds: A hand on a sub-dial which tracks seconds typically it completes a full rotation in one minute.
Tachymeter: A tachymeter watch has a function for measuring speed. It is a chronograph with a graduated dial on which speed can be read in kilometres per hour based on a 1000 metre distance.
Transparent Case Back: A transparent case back - frequently made of sapphire - makes it possible to see the movement inside the watch.
