Pre-owned Omega Speedmaster ref 311.30.42.30.01.005 (2018) has roots firmly planted in space exploration history. A Speedy was famously present as humankind took its first steps on the Moon and has been a part of each following lunar mission. The reliable chronograph movement and accompanying tachymeter scale are perfect for flight and even played a part in getting the crew of the ill-fated Apollo 13 mission home safely. Iconic Moonwatches typically feature a stainless steel case with twisted “Lyre” lugs, a tri-compax dial, space-friendly Hesalite crystal, and a manual-winding mechanical movement, similar to the authentic Omega 311.30.42.30.01.005 for sale here. Flipping the watch over, you will also see special engravings, “FLIGHT-QUALIFIED BY NASA FOR ALL MANNED SPACE MISSIONS” and “THE FIRST WATCH WORN ON THE MOON.”
