About the 21st of July 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin stepped off the Eagle to become the first people to stand on a different planet. To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the moment, OMEGA Replica Watches has created a new Limited Edition of 6,969 bits inspired by Apollo 11.
Ingenious technology was critical for getting astronauts to the moon. In OMEGA Replica Watches own smart design, the 42 millimeter case was produced in stainless steel, whereas the bezel ring is shiny black ceramic [ZrO2] having an OMEGA CeragoldTM tachymeter scale.
Leading the way in style, the indicators, bezel, OMEGA Replica emblem and virtually each the palms are produced at 18K Moonshine™ Gold – a brand new patent-pending metal that’s a paler colour than traditional yellow gold plus provides high resistance to fading.
“The 11 o’clock indicator pays tribute to Apollo 11’s legendary assignment number.”
2 Apollo 11 tributes are located on the dial. Some”11″ attributes in 18K Moonshine™ Gold at 11 o’clock. More especially, the 9 o’clock subdial reveals Buzz Aldrin climbing onto the lunar surface. This 18K Moonshine™ Gold subdial is blackened and laser-engraved.
THE OTHER SIDE
1 small step! The blackened decorative interior caseback indicates an astronaut’s laser-engraved footprint on the lunar surface, while Neil Armstrong’s epic quotation is composed in 18K Moonshine™ Gold-plated lettering.
“The bracelet and case are motivated by the 4th production Speedmaster design”
