The Omega Speedmaster has accompanied all six Apollo lunar missions, solidifying its place in the horological halls of fame as the first watch worn on the moon. Originally designed in 1957, Omega is now paying tribute to its legacy with a limited edition production that remains true to the moonwatch while also incorporating modern technological advancements for even greater accuracy.

No other watch has been officially approved by NASA for use during EVA situations like the Speedmaster. It has undergone extensive and rigorous testing under extreme environmental and atmospheric conditions. The watch's reputation reached new heights when it was used to time a critical 14-second burn on Apollo 13, helping ensure a safe return from the moon. In recognition, the astronauts on that mission awarded Omega with Snoopy awards for their exceptional dedication and contributions to the Apollo program.
