It's the 50th Anniversary all gold watch with Onyx markers. Everyone is waiting for the SS version...

Oh I was confused...I think the one on the left is the original commemorative gold Speedy given to the astronauts and the one on the right is the 50th Anniversary gold one. Gotcha.

Sorry. Looks like gold on left, 321 in middle and SS on right. I’m guessing though

Around 8000$, it's a replica made by a company in the US for museums.

I doubt so, the lunar lander is the one made by Code 3 a few years ago.

Looks like Omega is giving out subtle hints on instagram. The latest video mentions dust, as in moon dust.
There was rumor of maybe some moon dust on the watch in an earlier thread post.

There have been rumors of a lunar lander model as part of the package, so maybe..........

NASA does not sell or allow any moon rock to be used commercially so i don't see this happening unless there is a loophole for dust.

Could just up the texture of the matte dial they use on something like the 1957 broad arrow trilogy piece - that’s dark grey already for the vintage look.

The dial could be made to look like moon dust

I’m quite excited to see the implementation now

If you see the frequency of Omega post on Instagram in the last 1 or 2 days, they release a new post very often now compared to the older posts. New pictures/videos pops up every other hour now. I think they are VERY close to release pictures/videos of the 50th Speedy.

Omega was „only“ showing the new gold one yesterday night. Really great event otherwise 😀. They had some displays side by side with the original, it is a pretty watch indeed which I‘ll definitely buy. Steel/gold will be revealed next week, either on the 15th or 17th.
