Interesting video, Russell Schweickart mentioned " Omega was well respected "
At this rate we're going to see all 36 Gold Speedies awarded to NASA astronauts on auction before the end of the decade...

I wonder whether entering it in a dedicated Watch auction rather than a Space themed one is the correct decision by the seller.
I haven't looked at Heritage in years. Don't think they had the same respect or reach as RR back then (early 2000's).
