·I suppose it has to remembered that it was the Omega Speedmaster that went to and landed on the luna surface, not a Moonwatch which is simply a marketing nickname.
Yes, on the "marketing" side of things they do that all the time, like I've said, that it perfectly fine, normal and to be expected.
But look closer... in the actual product page:
https://www.omegawatches.com/en-gb/...ronometer-chronograph-44-25-mm-31192445101007
They don't call it a Moonwatch there 😉
So they promote the watch in the "Moonwatch" context, but they don't sell it as a Moonwatch (as in, oficcial product name or ID is not a Moonwatch). Big difference.
Thats' helpful, I can see a big difference between bracelets, thanks.
M MilnecI have a question, please: the lume on the indices looks significantly greener than the current models—is this just because of the render showing a quasi-night shot, or are they actually greener?
Thanks!
It looks like yet another - define Omega Moonwatch thread can be started. For this thread, I am just interested in the new releases and for sure they can inherit the Moonwatch moniker IMHO. I am happy the 1861a is still being used on ISS missions and see an irony that the only close up of a Speedmaster ticking / working on an Apollo moon landing mission is an 861. I am also very happy to own a 145.012 so covering all bases ;0). The 1861 has a proud space heritage and I am sure it will be the same for the 3861
It’s quite a taper as well according to the description...
