The First Space Watch - Omega Speedmaster

CK2998 is the second generation of the Speedmaster series, released in 1959. Different from the "broad arrow" pointer of the first generation Speedmaster in 1957, CK2998 adopts a dark aluminum bezel and Alpha pointer design. The historical CK2998 has been produced in multiple versions, with slight differences in details. According to research, the version worn by Walter Schirra is CK2998-4, which features a watch diameter of 39.7 mm and a maximum speed of 500 km/h displayed on the speedometer ring.

In 2024, Omega used this historical watch as inspiration to recreate the style of the brand's "first space watch". While the new work faithfully restores the essence of the appearance, it improves the material and performance: the arched watch mirror is upgraded from Hesalite organic glass to sapphire, and the luminous material is changed to the current mainstream Super-LumiNova. Under the bottom cover engraved with the seahorse pattern and the words "OCTOBER 3,1962", it is equipped with the Omega 3861 Master Chronometer movement. It is not only a modern version of the historical 321 movement, but also a qualitative leap in overall performance.

Another famous space watch, it landed on the moon with the Apollo 11 astronauts in July 1969. At that time, the three astronauts who carried out the program, Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Buzz Aldrin, all wore different Omega Speedmaster watches. Today's Speedmaster series professional moon watch is based on the fourth-generation Speedmaster worn by Aldrin, and its characteristics are the asymmetric case and stepped dial.
