Please note: This is NOT my listing, I got OF admin approval to point this out:

For sale on behalf of the Schirra family : the Omega Speedmaster 'First Omega in Space" on Steel Bracelet timepiece.

This beauty is new in the box and has never worn or removed except for photos that will be provided upon request.

This particular watch was presented with gratitude to Suzanne Schirra by Raynald Aeschilmann, President & CEO of Omega. It was presented to pay homage to her father Walter Schirra Jr. who flew the first Omega on his historic Mercury flight thus starting a long tradition between NASA and Omega.

A typed hand signed letter on Omega stationary w/envelope to Suzanne from CEO Raynald Aeschlimann is included for iron-clad provenance.

This "one of" spectacular presentation timepiece is being offered with all of its original packaging exactly as received from Omega.

Photos or any specifics will be happily provided upon request to anyone interested in a potential purchase.

The watch is posted at collectspace.com, before posting it to the website at www.FarthestReaches.com

The asking price for this presentation watch is $12,000, somewhat above its retail price but reasonable given its unique pedigree.

There are photos with additional general information easily found on Omega's website at:
