Could be a dark blue, kind of a full moon sky? Should look great with gold script and hands.
Or... to do this:
Yes, I know that. The 1969 Commemorative BA 145.022 was created to celebrate the success of Apollo 11. They produced 1014 of them and it was fitted with a 861. The 50th anniversary Gold LE has a 3861 which is a modernized 861, and they produced 1014 of them. IMO they got this one perfectly.
Now, the First watch on the Moon was steel with 321. So why a 3861 on its 50th anniversary steel LE when you already announced you are able to produce a 321? (and we know they are capable of modernizing it, so possibly a "3321"?)
Thinking about it, the problem may lay in the announcement order.
The very first announcement of this 50th anniversary year of Apollo 11 was "Omega is bringing back the 321". If they do not intend to use it on the anniversary steel edition, what is the point of doing that as you first announcement? They could have tease us with all the LE, then announce the return of the 321. The 321 comeback would have been the cherry on top of the cake and it would not have harmed the other announcements. On the contrary, announcing the 321 first, knowing you will build a lot of expectation around it, and not fulfilled them in your later announcements about the LEs... That is a huge communication mistake.
As there will be a platinum LE, they could still use the 321 (or modernized 321) for it, if they decide to build this Platinum LE from the 105.012 the same way they did with the Moonshine Gold from the BA145.022. In that case I could understand (still a communication mistake IMO, but a smaller one)
