Read Conditions of Sale
The Omega Moonshine Gold is a proprietary 18k yellow gold alloy, developed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. Debuted in 2019 on the Speedmaster Apollo 11 50th Anniversary, it is a mixture of gold, silver, copper, and palladium which gives off a unique lighter shade of gold that is more durable. To the delight of the Speedy fans, Omega released the Speedmaster Moonwatch Moonshine Gold in early 2022 with two dial variants, one with green dial and green bezel, and the other with a “panda” dial.

The present moonwatch in Moonshine Gold boasts a gold panda dial with black subdials, black indexes, and black ceramic bezel, matching seamlessly with the integrated black rubber strap with lunar surface pattern on the underside which fits nicely into the Moonshine Gold foldover clasp, allowing the watch to sit very comfortably on the wrist.

Powered by the caliber 3861 introduced in 2019, that is based on the Lemania caliber 1861, the movement of the watch boasts a number of technical upgrades. As the co-axial escapement is made of anti-magnetic alloys, the caliber 3861 is equipped with high magnetism resistance, and is resistant to magnetic fields reaching 15,000 gauss. With a power reserve of 50 hours, the manual caliber 3861 is further certified by METAS, the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology, making it a Master Chronometer.

Offered in pristine condition and complete with full set of accessories, this is a splendid opportunity for all discerning Speedy collectors.

Omega

Swiss | 1848

Omega's rich history begins with its founder, Louis Brandt, who established the firm in 1848 in La Chaux de Fonds. In 1903, the company changed its name to Omega, becoming the only watch brand in history to have been named after one its own movements. A full-fledged manufacturer of highly accurate, affordable and reliable watches, its sterling reputation enabled them to be chosen as the first watch company to time the Olympic Games beginning in 1932. Its continued focus on precision and reliability ultimately led their Speedmaster chronograph wristwatch to be chosen by NASA in 1965 — the first watch worn on the moon.

Key models sought-after by collectors include their first, oversized water-resistant chronograph — the reference 2077, early Speedmaster models such as the CK 2915 and 2998, military-issued versions of the Seamaster and oversized chronometer models such as those fitted with their prestigious caliber 30T2Rg.
