Constellation on top.
Seiko 100m Quartz Alarm Chronograph underneath. GMT function?

Looks like some Buzz [Aldrin] action going on 😀

I appreciate the links and info.
You do have very nice hardware.

Also, that Moonshine of yours is a stunner.
I'm on the waitlist in the US for one, it has been 6 months.
No good news, yet.
You are welcome and thank you so much for the kind words! I feel indeed very fortunate to have been able to put my current collection together.
Concerning the Moonshine Apollo 11 though, I am surprised to read your comment as I thought that all 1,014 watches had long been allocated already, and that they were now only available on the secondary market. Are you registered at an Omega Boutique or at an Authorized Dealer?

With the Speedmaster on injured reserve, I am turning to Christopher Ward to take up the slack

You are most likely correct.
From what I’m told by my OB: Omega distributed all 1014 pieces, a small percentage get send back or refused delivery. Some of the press pieces come back to HQ. O is still taking names for moonshine.
(Apparently I’m holding spot #1 for the Moonshine, in the US—this could be BS, idk.)
Believe it or not, Trilogy speedy and SeaMasters are still avail new from OB.
They were technically sold out 15 months ago. I was offered one last month by my OB.
So I’m keeping my hope alive for a moonshine, directly from Omega—for now.
I’d rather Omega profit from my purchase, than gray.
I’d like O to know I’m a good, loyal dude that only wears Omega!
(Ok, the last bit is a stretch)

When I was looking for Trilogy last month, ( either set or individual), the local OB told me that railmaster and seamaster will be available to source, but no speedmaster for me. I guess trilogy speedmaster are not meat for every customer. I am pretty sure my ranking at O is not the the top as you thouogh.

Afternoon change out for the newly arrived Owix Eastmaster.

I don't think the photos I have taken do it justice but this just looks gorgeous with its tropicalised dial.

Its hard to get my mind around the name of Eastmaster, every time I think of it my mind inserts the name Beastmaster AKA a book written by Andre Norton back in the 60's or 70's that I remember reading back in the day.

you are in luck, Trilogy speedy can be had for 20% below list. You’ll see minty offers here on OF quite often.
i should have been patient and waited as you said, but got a 3 piece bundle from c24 as an quick impulse, paid retail, not a very smart move
i like the cleaner look of individual piece over the set which has the number printed on dial

Leave it be…. There’s nothing wrong with patina on a nice vintage omega…. That’s only my humble opinion…..
