Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Apollo 8 Darkside of The Moon Yellow



Special edition Dark Side of the Moon Apollo 8:
The dial has been skeletonized to reveal its blackened movement, which has been laser-ablated to represent the lunar surface.
The near side can be viewed through the dial & features a landscape full of craters to represent our view of the moon’s surface from Earth.
The far side can be viewed through the case-back which represents the dark side of the moon that only astronauts get to see.

The case back is engraved with APOLLO 8, DEC 1968, DARK SIDE OF THE MOON & “WE’LL SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE” which were astronoauts' Jim Lovell’s final words spoken to ground control just before the Apollo 8 traveled to the far side of the moon.
