·I have been thinking about this watch a bit lately and while it is stunning in its own right (and meets the Omega team's evident goals of making a direct homage to the 1969 version...)... I still feel that Omega missed an opportunity to come up with something new and unique.
The possibilities are limit-less so why go for a 1:1 reproduction? Why murky the waters of the original model? Why not come up with a different bezel color (at least) or something more innovative like moon texture as seen on the Apollo 8?
Again, the 2019 version is great and well done... but nothing new under the sun...
After having pondered the specifics of this watch, realizing that the vintage ones are now in unobtainium territory.... and getting super lucky thanks to @speedy99 's tip.... the Moonshine Gold landed on my wrist!! 🥰

·Looks like these pieces are either with collectors or famous people
As far as being a collector, may be, but given the amazing company of enthusiasts on this community with truly "out of this world collections"... I would consider myself to be a very humble one. 👍

·Well, I am by no means famous... and hope to never be. 😉

Did you get to buy the astronaut too? Here in the UK we have been told that these are not available for sale.

·Moon meteorite - NASA or the US government won‘t sell you a moon rock. Would be interesting to calculate their value, the missions weren‘t cheap after all...

·Any chance of getting these still? If anyone has any tips towards an OB with availability or they are looking to back out of their reservation please PM.

·I’ve been told they haven’t really hit the US OBs yet and no, basically no chance of getting one in the US at this point as there is a wait lost longer than the number allocated here to begin with.

If the wait list is so long? Why are there so many on Chrono24 at discount already? Seems to me if those on the wait list really wanted one, they would pick one up from one of those sellers or even the one listed in the for sale section! I think at these price points, there are so many other choices for people to make from Patek, AP, Lange,...
