OMEGA Speedmaster 145.0022 Moonwatch Vintage 1983 Box Papers

One of the most iconic wristwatches ever made, often described as legendary because of it’s wonderful history. This outstanding example is all original and un polished, a collectors dream because it comes with it’s box and papers showing it was sold in 1983 on the 1st of April. It would be an ideal birth year watch, so hard to find examples as complete and clean as this.

Few wristwatches enjoy a legacy like Omega’s Speedmaster. Its time on the wrists of Apollo 11’s crew during the first mission to the moon in 1969 cemented the now legendary ‘Speedy’ as one of history’s most beloved chronographs. Hand-picked by NASA for its functional prowess and durability in an airless environment, the Speedmaster rapidly transcended from an aerospace tool to a design classic. The Speedmaster remains a staple of Omega’s catalogue in the present day – one of the many great sports chronographs of the ‘60s and ‘70s to dictate designs in the current watch market. Since it’s voyage onboard Apollo 11, the design of Omega’s Moonwatch remains largely untouched. Even the most recent renditions remain intimately and defiantly tied to the timeless makeup of the original.
