Description:

A tribute to the original Speedmaster worn in space by astronaut Wally Schirra in 1962, this reference 311.32.40.30.01.001known as the First Omega in Spaceis a historically significant and beautifully proportioned model that offers vintage aesthetics with modern dependability.

The 39.7mm case size is faithful to the early Speedmaster CK2998, making it more wearable for a wider range of wrists compared to the larger Professional Moonwatch. The dial retains the iconic tri-compax layout, applied logo, and sleek Alpha hands, all hallmarks of early Speedmasters.

Inside beats the legendary manual-wind Calibre 1861, the same movement used in the Moonwatch for decades, known for its robustness and space-proven reliability. A domed sapphire crystal protects the dial, offering clarity while maintaining the vintage character.

Paired with a warm brown leather strap, this Speedmaster blends mid-century space race heritage with everyday versatility. Its not just a watchits a slice of horological history on your wrist.
