Recommended Chronograph - Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch "First Omega in Space"

The Speedmaster series is one of the most representative models of chronograph watches. It was born in 1957. It was originally born for motorsports. It was also the first OMEGA chronograph equipped with a tachymeter bezel. After NASA's rigorous testing, the astronauts accompanied the astronauts to participate in all six missions to the moon. Since then, the Omega Speedmaster has also been called the "moon watch."

The Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Chronograph "First Omega in Space" is the commemorative version of the replica Omega Speedmaster series "First Omega in Space" launched by Omega. During the flight mission, the Speedmaster watch CK2998 was worn, which made Speedmaster the first watch to enter space. The watch is made of stainless steel and has a diameter of 39.7 mm.

On the dial, there are a small seconds dial, a 30-minute chronograph subdial, a 12-hour chronograph subdial and a central chronograph hand.
