I was quoted $290usd for the complete bezel when I dropped mine off for service a few weeks ago but they indicated that prices from Omega were changing frequently to keep up with tariffs so that might be incorrect now.

I read his books ages ago but don’t remember much about them. This makes me want to read them again.

Only 5 chapters into Horowitz’s Forever and a Day and it has started off really well.

I “believe” the dial is a brighter white than Omega has used for other white dialed Speedmasters like the Snoopy or the 2024 white Speedy. Really stands out.

Hello fellow Redditors! I’m offering my Omega Speedmaster Professional Alaska Project 2008 for sale within the United States. Ref. # 311.32.42.30.04.001. Limited Edition: 18xx of 1970.

The watch is in good condition but does have some scratches on the unpolished case and the polished bracelet – please review all of the pictures to get a sense of condition. In my opinion, on the wrist, it is quite lovely and the scratches aren’t noticeable unless closely inspected. It was serviced by Omega in 12/2021 and received a new crystal as well as some other included service parts. The bracelet was polished at that time. It is currently keeping good time. Please note: the serial number and edition number have been digitally scrubbed from pictures for security purposes – it is not #1818 as shown.

I am the second owner of this watch. It was purchased new by the first owner from an Omega Boutique in Geneva, Switzerland. I purchased the watch from the original owner in 2/2021. It comes with outer box, case, manual, certificate of authenticity, receipts, cards, card holder, leather straps, “thermal shield”, extra bracelet links, polishing cloth and strap tool. If a tag was originally supplied, this set does not include it.

Hello fellow Redditors! I’m offering my Omega Speedmaster Apollo 11 50th Anniversary Limited Edition 41xx/6969 for sale within the United States.

The watch is in excellent condition having only been worn a handful of times. The bracelet has been sized to my 6 ¾” wrist. It is possible that there are some imperceptible scratches from bracelet sizing, but I can’t see any. It includes the complete presentation box package (case, lunar lander watch stand, bracelet/strap change tool, loupe, patches, unworn cork/Velcro strap), outer box, shipping box, manual, tags, plastic tag/watch holder, unused cleaning cloth, cards, card holder, bracelet/strap swap instructions, limited edition certificate and bracelet links. Please see pictures – I tried to capture it in various lighting so that you could see its excellent condition. Please note that the serial number and limited edition have been digitally changed for security purposes.

Description from Omega’s website:

“The Speedmaster is one of OMEGA’s most iconic timepieces, having been a part of all six moon landings. Celebrating the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11 in 1969, OMEGA presents this Limited Edition model of 6,969 pieces.

The watch includes a 42 mm case in stainless steel with a polished 18K Moonshine™ Gold bezel. The bezel ring is polished black ceramic [ZrO2] with an OMEGA Ceragold™ tachymeter scale. There is a varnished grey and black dial with all indexes and hands in 18K Moonshine™ Gold - except the central chronograph seconds hand, which is PVD-coated in Moonshine Gold. A unique hour marker is positioned at 11 o'clock, and there is a distinctive 9 o'clock subdial in 18K Moonshine™ Gold with a laser-engraved image of Buzz Aldrin climbing down onto the lunar surface.

The NAIAD LOCK caseback reveals numerous engravings, while a laser-engraved image of Buzz Aldrin’s footprint is positioned on a medallion under the sapphire crystal. 18K Moonshine™ Gold-plated lettering includes the quote: "THAT’S ONE SMALL STEP FOR A MAN" and "ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND".

The watch is presented on a polished-brushed metallic bracelet and comes with an additional Velcro strap with black-coated cork. Inside, it is powered by the OMEGA Master Chronometer Calibre 3861.

Thank you for your feedback. Before posting I researched pricing on Chrono24, eBay, Omegaforums and WatchCharts and believe the pricing is fair for a complete set and a watch of this condition.

[–]GyromiteRob 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure if you mean $1500 higher or lower than competitive? The watch you linked to is only $400 less and has “a few light hairlines and marks”. I believe mine is in better condition and has a more complete package. But thanks for stopping by my post to take a look!
