SOLD OUT: 2022 Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch 42MM Co-Axial Chronograph 310.32.42.50.01.001 Box Papers

WHY THIS WATCH 

The Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch, introduced in 1957, is an iconic timepiece with an unparalleled history. Originally designed for motorsports, the Speedmaster's robust, accurate, and easy-to-read chronograph attracted NASA's attention. In 1965, after rigorous testing, NASA certified the Speedmaster for manned space missions. The watch gained fame as the "Moonwatch" when astronaut Buzz Aldrin wore it during the historic Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969. Since then, the Speedmaster has been part of every manned U.S. space mission, including the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project and the Space Shuttle program. Its legendary status, timeless design, and connection to space exploration make the Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch a beloved timepiece for collectors and enthusiasts alike.

The Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch 310.32.42.50.01.001 is a contemporary iteration of the legendary Moonwatch, launched in 2021. It embraces the iconic design elements of its predecessors, with a 42mm stainless steel case, black tachymeter bezel, and Hesalite crystal. This model houses the Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861.

The Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch 310.32.42.50.01.001 is an outstanding watch due to its iconic design, space exploration legacy, and cutting-edge horological advancements. The timepiece boasts a classic aesthetic with its 42mm stainless steel case, black tachymeter bezel, and Hesalite crystal. Its rich history, including its role in the Apollo 11 moon landing, adds to its allure. The watch is powered by the modern Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861, offering superior precision, anti-magnetic properties, and a co-axial escapement. This blend of timeless design, space-age pedigree, and advanced movement technology make the 310.32.42.50.01.001 a sought-after and cool timepiece.

The Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch 310.32.42.50.01.001 features the Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861, a manual-winding movement with a co-axial escapement. Boasting anti-magnetic properties up to 15,000 gauss, this METAS-certified caliber ensures excellent precision and reliability. The Calibre 3861 has 26 jewels and a 50-hour power reserve.

The Speedmaster is a classic for a reason. This is my ultimate go-to tool watch that I can wear almost every day (on different straps!) and use to time almost everything. The watch wears deceptively well for 42mm. I love the way the legendary twisted lugs look on the case. This watch was meant to be legible in space so imagine how legible it is at the office. They don't change the look of these watches very much year to year. This model has some slight differences from the older model, including the step dial, and a few other elements, but overall this watch is going to age like a vintage Porsche. Best tool watch ever?

THE LITTLE DETAILS

This watch was purchased in 2022 from an Authorized dealer and comes with everything you see in the pictures including the Box, and Warranty Card. Note that this is the strap-only model, and does not come with the metal bracelet. The watch has been worn very sparingly by its original owner and is in overall near-mint condition, with only very light wear on the case. I would say the watch is overall 93-95%. Comes with the factory Omega strap and factory buckle. The strap was worn around a dozen times only and still has the majority of its life left.
