Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon "Apollo 8" 44.25mm
As 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  history aboard the Apollo 8 mission is celebrated through the blackened movement, which is laser-ablated on the main plate and bridges  to represent the moon€™s surface. The near side can be seen through the skeletonized black anodised aluminium dial, while the far side can be seen through the caseback.
Presented on a perforated black rubber strap with yellow rubber interior, the entire watch is black ceramic and includes a varnished yellow chronograph seconds hands and a laser-engraved tachymeter scale on the bezel which is filled with white enamel. The small-seconds subdial (patent pending) also includes a grade 5 titanium hand shaped like the Saturn V rocket. This 3D shape is obtained by laser turning, while the colours are obtained by white varnish, ablation, and laser blackening.
The specially decorated movement is the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3869, while the engravings on the caseback include "APOLLO 8, DEC 1968", "DARK SIDE OF THE MOON", "WE'LL SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE", and "CO-AXIAL MASTER CHRONOMETER".
