Omega Speedmaster X-33 – Breitling B1
One of our friends e-mailed us a few pictures of a great ana-digi pair: the Omega Speedmaster X-33 Gen 1 3290.50.00 and the Breitling B1.
Which one is your favourite? Although we -of course- have a huge weak spot for Speedmasters, the B1 is not too shabby either!
Thanks for sharing – much appreciated!

Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo XV 40th Anniversary 311.30.42.30.01.003
Our friend A mailed us a few pictures of his stunning Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo XV 40th Anniversary 311.30.42.30.01.003. The touch of colour, although quite subtle, add a lot of character to our favourite classic!
Enjoy the pics. A – thanks for sharing!
Neil Armstrong Omega Speedmaster Moonwalk
Yes! 21st of July 1969 – the day that the Omega Speedmaster gained immortality by becoming the very first watch to be worn while walking on the moon during the Apollo 11 Mission. 44 years ago!
The Omega Speedmaster was one of the few -if not the only- piece of equipment that was not designed specifically for the Apollo 11 mission.. Or in fact any other mission in which it was used! A huge compliment to Omega and the bullit-proof quality of the Speedmaster.
Let’s not forget Armstrong, Aldrin and Collings – three brave men. In a time way before iPhones, laptop computers, tablets et cetera, they risked their life for this huge accomplishment.
Omega Speedmaster Professional 145.012

The Speedmaster is a reference 145.012 from 1967, powered by caliber 321.
