Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon Apollo 8 44.25mm 310.92.44.50.01.001 – Black Ceramic, Rubber Strap

✓ Available Upon Request

The Timepiece

The Apollo 8 is the most theatrical Speedmaster ever built - the blackened 3869 is laser-ablated to show the moon's near side through the skeleton dial and the far side through the caseback. The small-seconds hand is a tiny Saturn V rocket in Grade 5 titanium. It commemorates the first mission to leave Earth orbit, and nothing else in the catalogue looks remotely like it.
