To commemorate the 40th anniversary of Apollo 11’s landing on the moon, Omega’s released a special edition Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch. Definitive Touch tells us the “limited edition timepiece is a replica of the Orginal Speedmaster Professional worn by Buzz Aldrin to the moon and it features shatter-proof acrylic crystal (also known as Hesalite), a stainless steel bracelet, and a small commemorative medallion imprinted with the Apollo 11 Mission Patch.
