    Yikes. You can get a sparkling new Tintin (or should I say "60th Anniversary Moon Watch") at authenticwatches.com for $3,100.

    I know. As soon as they catch up getting the Apollo 13 watches delivered the carver will start on the Gemini 4 case backs.

    "In addition there is a little light rubbing scratch, but it is good condition rather conspicuous like scratch"

    Sure....

    Man landed on the moon in 1969 making it 46 years ago. He has listed the watch as a 60th anniversary which would make man landing on the moon in 1954, the thought of landing man on the moon was not even in anyone's minds back in 54.

    In addition...

    The watch is a Speedmaster racing aka Tin Tin due to the red and white chequered dial it is also about $3300 OVERPRICED!

    Hope this helps!

    Well, Nothing wrong, Tintin landed on the moon in 1950 (1950-1954 : pre-publication of the story) or in 1954 (publication of the album), so 60th anniversary is not totally impossible.
    Of course some stubborn persons continue to believe that the first moon landing was made by Nasa in 1969, in which case this watch is offered on a pre-order basis and will be available only in 14 years, and the price takes into account that it will be a limited edition......
