My Holy Grail Moonwatches.

Blue Side of the Moon?

Good morning all from a rainy day from Saigon, Vietnam.

I’ve been collecting Speedmasters (only variants of the Moon-landing watches) for about 6 years now.

I was blessed yesterday with a holy grail of mine, can you guess what’s in the middle box? Haha….

Hint: It’s more special and limited than the other outer 2.

Have a magnificent day!

Buzz Aldrin's long lost Speedmaster?

More likely a Moonshine gold.

Apollo Souyez Metorite Dial?

Or an Alaska Project?

It looks nice! Often these materials just look so much better in person. It's definitely an under the radar piece, which is for the best considering its price tag.

Really nice range of Speedies - any vintage in your collection?

Thank you 🙏

I don’t have any vintage watches, I don’t know enough about them to splurge on their asking prices.

Plus, I like to wear my watches, modern watches triumph in robustness and serviceability.

Have a wonderful day!

You'll find that there are quite a few collectors around here that wear their vintage watches. I mostly alternate between a modern Omega, and a 1960s Gruen. The serviceability part is not really a concern with most watches. The vast majority will outlive any of us, if just a bit of care is taken. But you're right, there is so much knowledge involved with the valuation of the vintage pieces.

Thank you for posting your collection. The asking price of the Canopus 321 puts it firmly outside my purview, but I find it very attractive, all the same. If money was no object, I'd seriously consider having it.
