So, with 50th year anniversary of Moon Landing coming up next year, likely chance is that Omega will release another limited edition of the Speedmaster.

But what got me thinking, what about #SpeedyTuesday "project". So far, ST1 and ST2 have been a marketing and sales success, so another ST on the way next year? and if so, for how long?

Will collectors end up wary of Omega's marketing stunts?

 

Celebrating the n'th anniversary of a space mission is hardly a marketing gimmick. It's very serious, and Omega would never use their position as the NASA approved watch for space Flight merely to make profits.

....would they?

 

I think it is not taken at Omega this way...

May be a wrong question to a wrong person.....

 

“Moon dust” platinum dial. And a platinum version.

 

Only $1,969,000.00 each

 

Could we see another Alaska Project type watch?

 

69 sets of all moonwatch versions " Speedmaster Missions models"and the new limited, total of 25 watches, engraved with 50. 125,000$ per set.= total of 6,250,000$
SS, in 1969 LE 5000$ = 9,845,000$ (sold out to flippers when announced..)
Gold , in 769 LE (per july 1969) 15000$ each, =11,535,000$ (take some, maybe 3-4 years will sell)
WG, in 769 LE (per july 1969) 15000$ each, =11,535,000$ (ditto)

maybe platinum, 167 units as per July 16th, 25000$ each = 4,175,000$

total income = 43,340,000$. thats an additional of nearly 50 million dollar for a current production model with a 50 engraved, not bad.... ......

 

Red line omega speedmaster 50th anniversary

 

I’d like to see an 8000 series Moonwatch with no date, and which is otherwise visually identical to the manual existing one. Progress that respects the past.

 

They already said no ST next year

Likely chance is that Omega will launch limited editions regardless of anniversaries. So yeah... they better come up with something good, if they want my money.

 

Offered to all of the people that secured a ST1 and Ultraman provided that they can demonstrate that they still have them in their possession......I’ll get me coat

 

Reintroduce the 321's and flood the market with cheap parts.

 

I'm 'fakkin well' counting on it chaps! Some owners ..... of 105.012 Speedmasters may be hoping that the 'knock on' effect of all the 2019 'hoo hah' may trigger an Interest and rise in value of the real 'Moonwatch'.

 

I'm thinking command module watch box layered similar to ultraman. Hopefully coming on bracelet with a nasa strap included. I hope they make a real fuss of the caseback with similar quality to snoopy. Lunar module lazered into dial. Hopefully there are no eagles. It's not the greatest mission patch just the greatest mission.

 

that's a great idea. in fact, wouldn't it be nice if the dial is made from the metal scrap of the command module? or a rocket?

 

All I want is that Aqua Terra Worldtimer in stainless steel. No real interest in anything else from Omega right now.

 

Oooooo now were talking let's keep the ideas flowing.

 

Linen dial made from the lease agreement between NASA and the Hollywood film studio for the warehouse where the 'moon landing' was filmed... Straps made from the canvas of the director's chair... Crystals made from the studio lighting lenses...
