Omega Speedmaster ST105.003 For NASA

In 1965, NASA declared the Speedmaster “Flight Qualified for all Manned Space Missions.” This was just in time to accompany Virgil “Gus” Grissom and John Young on their Gemini 3 mission, just three weeks later. The watch that they wore was Omega Speedmaster ST105.003, which was different from the original “Broad Arrow” by its baton hands and having a blackened aluminum insert with the tachymeter scale on it, which improved legibility. It was also this watch that was attached to the space suit of Edward White, who was the first American to do a “spacewalk” on June 3, 1965. After this, Omega decided to change the name of the Speedmaster to Speedmaster Professional. More replica Omega Speedmaster Professional.

This appeared for the first time on the dial of reference ST105.012. The main difference between this and prior models was that it had an asymmetrical case. The crown and the chronograph pushers were now tucked in the side of the case, providing more protection against impact, which is also why NASA picked this watch as official equipment for its astronauts. On July 21, 1969, this particular model would make history as the Eagle landed on the moon.

However, while Neil Armstrong became the first human to ever walk on the surface of the moon, he was not wearing his Speedmaster. Due to technical difficulties with the onboard clock on the Eagle lunar landing module, he has left his watch as a backup. So it was Buzz Aldrin, stepping on the surface of the moon about 15 minutes after Armstrong, who made the Speedmaster the first watch worn on the moon. This earned the watch the nickname “Moonwatch,” and it has uniquely remained in production up until today with very little changes.
