Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Chronograph 310.30.42.50.01.002 Sapphire Sandwhich

The Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Chronograph 310.30.42.50.01.002 Sapphire Sandwich is a masterful timepiece that pays homage to Omega's historic association with space exploration. This iconic model, part of the Speedmaster Professional collection, is renowned for its role as the "Moonwatch" worn during NASA's Apollo missions to the moon.

The watch features a robust stainless steel case with a diameter of 42mm, offering a substantial yet classic size. The transparent case back is fitted with sapphire crystal, providing a clear view of the legendary Omega caliber 1861 movement inside. This manual-winding movement is a direct descendant of the one used in the original Moonwatch, ensuring precision and reliability.

The dial of the Speedmaster Moonwatch is a "Sapphire Sandwich," meaning it has a sapphire crystal on both sides, front, and back. This design allows for a clear view of the dial, which boasts a black background with contrasting white hour markers and hands. The chronograph sub-dials at 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock, and 9 o'clock add functionality while maintaining the watch's symmetrical and balanced aesthetic.
