·Real shame that when changing the bracelet they have not made it more modern. Former know if there is a half link at least to help with sizing issues ?
Without a doubt, women (and the odd dog) made significant, important, contributions to space exploration. The fact is though, back then, the people jumping about on the moon were blokes!😀
“Flight Qualified by NASA in 1965 for all manned space missions”. By adding "in 1965" Omega can get away with using that non-woke word "manned" in 2021 because it refers to an event 55 years ago.
W weihlWhat specifically does "domed hands" mean?
Sedna and white gold versions also come with aluminium bezels. At minimum they should be ceramic.
Well Alex, prescribed speech seems to be very popular these days mate. @Wryfox has tied this one down nice and tight with "personed"

NASA was a reflection of society that existed at the time, faults and all. Change is inevitable, growth is optional.
Check out the "Mercury 13" and Jerrie Cobb in particular. She could fly as well as any of the original 7 and did as well if not better ......
There were only blokes on the moon because the blokes had control, .......NASA was a reflection of society that existed at the time, faults and all.

Yes you make very valid points, but I'm not sure that simply drawing attention to the motive behind a specific change indicates opposition to equality of opportunity.
I am very happy that my daughter or my grandaughters could now be astronauts, or anything else they choose. However, I grew up in London, England, in the 1950's and 1960's. We played on bomb sites and air raid shelters and we knew how vital the contribution of women was to the War effort. We got it 1st hand from our parents and grandparents
The changes had to come, and it was our, rock and roll, generation that kick started those changes. In many ways, the world has progressed since then and equality of opportunity is better for everyone. However, it doesn't benefit from trying to re-write history.😀
