On October 3, 1962, astronaut Walter Schirra wore the OMEGA Speedmaster CK 2998 during the Sigma 7 mission, making it the first OMEGA in space. This modern tribute captures the spirit of that historic model with a 39.70 mm polished and brushed stainless steel case, paired with a brown leather strap. The black aluminium bezel features the iconic tachymeter scale with the “Dot Over Ninety,” while the sapphire crystal, reminiscent of hesalite, reveals a CVD-coated grey-blue dial inspired by 1960s originals. The vintage Super-LumiNova-filled “Alpha” hands and white “Baton” central seconds hand complete the classic look, along with subdials for 30-minute, 12-hour, and small-seconds displays.
The watch is powered by the Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861, a modern evolution of the legendary Calibre 321. Vintage OMEGA logos adorn the dial and crown, while the caseback features the Seahorse medallion and inscriptions commemorating its space heritage. Each timepiece comes in a special presentation box with a “LEGENDARY MOONWATCH” leaflet, celebrating OMEGA’s enduring legacy of space exploration.

Technical information about this watch
OMEGA Speedmaster Anniversary Series "First OMEGA In Space"
50M / 5 ATM water resistance
Water resistance indicates a watch's ability to withstand moisture and water. Ratings are measured in metres (M) or atmospheres (ATM). For instance, 30M (3 ATM) is suitable for light splashes, while 100M (10 ATM) and above are ideal for swimming and diving. Regular maintenance helps retain water resistance over time.
OMEGA Calibre 3861 Manually-wound movement
Watch movements are the mechanisms that power timekeeping, coming in automatic, manual, and quartz types. Automatic movements self-wind using wrist motion, manual movements require hand-winding, and quartz movements are battery-powered for precise timekeeping. Each type offers unique benefits, catering to different preferences and lifestyles.
40mm case size
Case size, measured in millimetres (mm), impacts the watch's look and fit. Men's watches typically range from 38mm to 46mm, and women's from 26mm to 36mm. Larger cases make a bold statement, while smaller cases offer a classic look. Choosing the right size ensures comfort and style.
50 hours power reserve
Power reserve is the duration a watch runs on a full wind or charge. Mechanical watches usually offer 40 to 80 hours, with some extending to several days. Quartz watches, powered by batteries, last several years. Knowing the power reserve helps maintain accurate timekeeping.
