    Hello All

    I am after some of your valued opinions

    I am new to the Omega brand and recently become very fond of the Omega Speedmaster range

    I have become a massive fan of the moon watch, I love everything about it. The look, feel, history etc etc

    The only problem is, I really can't decide between the original version and the moon to mars

    There is very little difference in price (£200)

    Would one be a better buy than the other?

    Which one is more desirable?

    Thanks in advance

    The Moon to Mars is a limited edition, so in my opinion that's more desirable, but you really can't go wrong with either watch.

    I'd go the classic speedy moon for your first watch, the moon to mars is harder to read, and more of a specialty watch than a daily wearer.

    The Moon To Mars isn't a Limited Edition, per se, but it is a lower volume numbered edition (with no upper limit on how many will be made). I would personally pick the classic Moonwatch (and did), but the MtM is a bit different and injects a bit of colour into the dial

    There are so many different "special editions" of the Moonwatch. Personally, I'd go for the classic, unless you really like the look of the Moon To Mars.

    Welcome Philip, which ///M car you drive just out of interest?

    Wow! I love the look of this, I guess the band is an addition by you rather than an original? do you have any more pics of this?
