It is a faithful if somewhat flashy tribute to the original Apollo 11 edition moonwatch, and one that well-heeled Omega collectors are sure to covet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 42mm case, bracelet, dial, hour-markers, and hour.\/minute hands of the 50th Anniversary Speedmaster are all craft from what Omega is calling Moonshine Gold, a \u201cunique new alloy whose color is inspired by the shining moonlight in a dark blue sky.\u201d Described as a \u201cpaler hue\u201d than traditional 18K yellow gold, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/omega-1.html\">Omega<\/a> says it \u201coffers high resistance to the fading of color and lustre over time.\u201d The watch features the asymmetrical case-band of the 4th generation Speedmaster, as well as a burgundy bezel ring in homage to the 1969 Speedy &#8211; this time finished in ceramic with a tachymeter scale in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ceragold<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Omega\u2019s unique blend of ceramic and gold.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_31096\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-31096\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-31096 size-full\" title=\"Omega Speedmaster Apollo 11 50th Anniversary Limited Edition\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/OMEGA_310.60.42.50.99.001_caseback-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Apollo 11\" width=\"620\" height=\"886\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/OMEGA_310.60.42.50.99.001_caseback-1.jpeg 620w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/OMEGA_310.60.42.50.99.001_caseback-1-210x300.jpeg 210w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/OMEGA_310.60.42.50.99.001_caseback-1-266x380.jpeg 266w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-31096\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">While it is similar to the movement found inside the current moonwatch, the cal. 3861 adds a couple of important key features (Image: Omega).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The vertically-brushed step dial is marked \u201cAu750\u201d for the use of solid gold, and features faceted black onyx indexes set in polished hour-markers, as well as a matching set of black-varnished hands.
