Description
Cloaked in all-black ceramic construction, this unworn Omega Speedmaster reference 311.92.44.30.01.001 represents the “Dark Side of the Moon” Apollo 8 variant, honoring the first crewed mission to orbit the moon. The 44.25mm ceramic case delivers both contemporary durability and period-correct proportions, while the black dial maintains the essential Speedmaster layout that accompanied every Apollo mission. This particular Apollo 8 edition stands apart from standard Dark Side models through its unique caseback decoration and commemorative design elements, marking one of humanity’s most audacious space exploration achievements in December 1968.
