The Speedmaster is the Moonwatch: NASA certified in 1965 and worn on every lunar mission, the only watch qualified for spacewalks to this day. Its manual chronograph remains in continuous production as a working piece of history.

This Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch wears a 42mm 18k rose gold case with a black, applied markers face. Calibre 3861 keeps it running.

Fun fact: Calibre 321 is the movement that went to the Moon: a column wheel chronograph Omega stopped making in 1968 and rebuilt in 2019 by scanning Eugene Cernan's Apollo 17 Speedmaster with a tomograph to recover the geometry.

Speedmaster

The chronograph that went to the Moon, still built to that brief

The Speedmaster started in 1957 as a motorsport chronograph, and the hand-wound Moonwatch still traces that original brief. NASA qualified it for spaceflight in 1965, and the Moonwatch has kept the same broad shape since: usually a black dial, tachymetre bezel, three sub-dials. Around it sit other chronographs, some smaller and dressier, some larger and more modern, so the family runs from strict tool watch to everyday sports piece.
