The Omega Speedmaster is a collection of chronographs, and within the line are MoonWatch Professional watches – descendants of the timepieces that were used for the lunar missions. There are three references that actually made it on the moon - 105.003, 105.012, and 145.012. Newer iterations of these watches are all considered MoonWatches.
The MoonWatch by definition is a hand-wound watch with three chronograph subdials, a Hesalite or plexiglas crystal, and a stainless steel case back; however it has evolved over time to include a sapphire crystal and case back.
The first Moon landing took place on July 20, 1969 when the Apollo 11 spacecraft arrived on its surface. Astronauts Neil Alden Armstrong, Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin, and Michael Collins were all provided the Omega Speedmaster reference 105.012 on board. Neil Armstrong, the first man to step on the Moon, kept his watch on the Lunar Module. It was Buzz Aldrin, who followed Armstrong on the Moon’s surface while wearing his Speedmaster, that made it the first watch on the Moon.
Because of its classic design, reliable performance, and remarkable history, the Omega Speedmaster has prevailed as one of the most coveted chronographs. With its continuing popularity and huge audience, the Speedmaster will always be in high demand, thus holding its value well.
