·It has to obey the rotation turn even if it is a speedy. Rules are rules.

·Not a Pro but it's the watch that I wear most often, so I guess that makes it my "daily".

·When I lived in Malawi the only watch I had for 18 months was my 1989 speedmaster Apollo 11 20th anniversary watch. I wore it everyday no matter where I was going. I grew quite attached to it, as it travelled with me, to a few countries while I lived there.
Now it is in rotation with other watches. I rotate my watch every couple of days and I usually have 5 or 6 in rotation with the others in the safe. When I get bored I swap some of them our of rotation.
I just happen to be wearing it today.

·Yes. Thanks to Uncle (Seiko) Straps half-link for the 1861 bracelet, it now fits perfectly!
You can see the grooves on the Uncle half-link are a little bit deeper than the Omega links, but in use it’s partly hidden by the buckle so who cares?

·Wore my 1994 "25 years Apollo 11" as a daily beater until I couldn't wind it any longer... in 2016, that was almost 22 years without a service !
Wore it again after a service but stopped wearing Omega Speedmaster in July 2019 "50 years Apollo 11", extremely disappointed about the commemorative 50th Apollo anniversary releases... Maybe in 2025 they might release a true & affordable Apollo-Soyuz tribute ? 🥱

·I am not sure if that "commemorative" also came on a bracelet, but if it did the clasp would have said "professional" on it. There are a few of the Speedys that are intended to look like the original...which didn't have professional on the dial. If it has an 1861 movement it is a Professional. Any of the older "Automatics" are not Professionals. Probably doesn't matter to you, but I am pretty sure that your watch is worth a bit more than a "regular" Moonwatch, and part of the reason is because the dial is almost indistinguishable from the late 60's Speedys. Great watch by the way

·Going on 22 years of ownership (15 years as a daily), ya’ll have inspired me to take it out today and forgo the shinier options.
