Own the Moon?... 馃槙....Look mate! I think you'll find God has already got that one in the bag!...馃槙 I've got a more attainable idea! 馃憤


WHAT BETTER WAY TO CELEBRATE THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE MOON LANDING:

Than by pretending to be Neil or Buzz!

Treat yourself to a lovely, vintage, brown dial, Omega Speedmaster 105.012-65!... (with big fat pusher tubes)

Ping the top pusher and watch the chrono hand glide for a few seconds.......(just in Case you need to manually time an emergency booster rocket burn.).....count the seconds...then, ping the top pusher again (to stop booster rocket taking you off course) 馃槻.......before pinging the lower pusher to reset the hand.... and watching it flick back to 12, with no 'fakkin' Chrono creep! 馃檮

Did you even look at the pics..? 馃槈

Nice watch by the way but it looks a little beat up. Get it in for a service - they鈥檒l put a shiny new dial and hands on it and have it back looking as good as new for you, quicker than you can say Buzz Off 馃槣

It popped up as an advert on my Facebook feed - think it may have been a kickstarter originally? 3D printed using NASA mapping photographs apparently. Looks pretty cool when dimmed down and all the lights are off

Plenty of models available on Amazon, if you have access to that site. Makes great night lights for the kids, if you have those too 馃榾

Yeah and possibly all made from the same 3D print template too?? I paid around 拢43 I think it worked out at, which I noticed is more expensive than some of the amazon ones. The makers of the one I bought warn of cheaper imitations that don't have the same level of detail, but they would say that wouldn't they?
