Beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour and offering around a 42-hour power reserve, it delivers the kind of durability and consistency you’d expect from a watch built for everyday wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe case follows the familiar Speedmaster formula, measuring 39mm by 14mm, giving it a solid presence on the wrist without losing its classic proportions. Signature elements like the tachymeter bezel, and pump pushers alongside a signed crown keep it firmly rooted in the Speedmaster lineage. On the dial, however, it sets itself apart with a less common vertical chronograph layout and a date window at three o’clock. The distinctive arrangement of the subdials, combined with a reverse panda colour scheme and lumed hour markers, creates a look that blends vintage Speedmaster cues with a more modern, dynamic edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003eA BIT OF TRIVIA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003eOmega Speedmaster is a line of chronograph wristwatches produced by Omega SA. While chronographs have existed since the late 1800s, Omega first introduced this line of chronographs in 1957. Since then, many different chronograph movements have been marketed under the Speedmaster.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003eAstronaut Walter Schirra was the first person to wear one in space in 1962 during his Mercury-Atlas 8 mission. The manual winding Speedmaster Professional or \"Moonwatch\" is the best-known and longest produced; it was worn during the first American spacewalk as part of NASA's Gemini 4 mission and was the first watch worn by an astronaut walking on the Moon during the Apollo 11 mission.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"\u003eThe Speedmaster Professional remains one of several watches qualified by NASA for spaceflight and is still the only one so qualified for EVA (Extravehicular activity).
