Description

The Omega Speedmaster "First Omega in Space" (FOIS) pays homage to the original CK2998, worn by astronaut Wally Schirra aboard the Sigma 7 Mercury mission in 1962, marking Omega’s first journey beyond Earth. This model recreates the elegance of the early Speedmasters while integrating modern refinements. The 39.7mm stainless steel case, with its straight lugs and polished bevels, stays true to the original pre-Moon Speedmaster design. The black varnished dial, featuring alpha hands, applied Omega logo, and recessed subdials, enhances legibility and vintage charm. The black tachymeter bezel, engraved with a white scale, reinforces the Speedmaster’s racing and space heritage. Completing the look, the watch is secured with a classic brown leather strap, emphasizing its timeless aesthetic. Inside, the manual-winding Caliber 1861, the descendant of the Moonwatch movement, provides a 48-hour power reserve and robust chronograph functionality. The sapphire crystal protects the dial, while the solid caseback, engraved with "First Omega in Space", adds to its collectibility. Though water-resistant to 50 meters, its true strength lies in its historical significance and design purity. With its classic proportions, space heritage, and refined vintage appeal, the Speedmaster FOIS is a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate the legacy of Omega’s first steps into space. Our offering is in very good condition - shows only some marks on the lugs from strap changes. Comes in full set of the original Numbered Edition box and cards. Ticking per specs. Covered by our limited warranty of 1 year, starting on the date of purchase.
