Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional

The Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch, reference 311.30.42.30.01.005, is the purist's Moonwatch, the reference that stays truest to the original watch worn on the lunar surface during all six Apollo moon landings, with its plexi crystal, solid caseback, and legendary Calibre 1861 hand-wound movement. This certified pre-owned example from 2020 is offered in very good condition and comes with its full original set, including the iconic Moonwatch Big Box with all original accessories, NATO strap, astronaut strap, bracelet changing tool, and commemorative book.

Crafted in stainless steel, the 311.30.42.30.01.005 presents the Speedmaster Professional in its classic 42mm asymmetric case, with a black anodised aluminium tachymeter bezel and the plexi crystal that the astronauts chose for its resistance to shattering under pressure. Details that are not compromises, but conscious choices made for professional reasons that have never lost their meaning.

The matte black dial is a masterpiece of functional design, with three chronograph subdials for small seconds, 30 minutes, and 12 hours, applied stick and dot hour markers, and luminescent stick hands delivering the exceptional legibility that professional timing instruments demand. No date, no complications beyond the chronograph. Exactly as it was in 1969, and exactly as it should be.

Powering the watch is the Omega Calibre 1861, a descendant of the legendary manual-winding movement worn on the Moon, beating at 21,600 vibrations per hour with a 48-hour power reserve. Winding this watch every morning is not a routine, it is a connection to one of humanity's greatest achievements.

The watch is fitted with its original stainless steel bracelet, with additional straps included in the Big Box. Water resistant to 50 metres.
