SKU: 58-88-0075

This limited edition Omega Speedmaster was created to honor the 40th anniversary of Apollo 11 and the first human landing on the moon. It was during this historic event that the Speedmaster solidified its status as the iconic Moonwatch, as Buzz Aldrin proudly wore one during the historic moonwalk, while Neil Armstrong brought his as a backup in case of any technical issues with the onboard computer.  This special edition showcases the iconic Apollo 11 “eagle” mission patch on its small seconds subdial and caseback engraving, along with an additional dial inscription commemorating the precise moment when Armstrong took his historic "one small step".
