Notes

This vintage Omega Speedmaster reference 2915-2 (circa 1958) represents the very beginning of the legendary Moonwatch lineage. As the second execution of the inaugural Speedmaster series (introduced in 1957 as CK 2915), it was originally designed as a high-precision racing chronograph for motorsport enthusiasts — long before NASA selected the model for space. Produced only between 1958 and 1959, the 2915-2 is among the rarest and most desirable early Speedmasters.

It features the iconic broad arrow hands, a tropical dial and the later service stainless steel tachymeter bezel, Powered by the legendary manual-winding Calibre 321 and fitted with the Omega stainless steel bracelet (ref. 7077).

This Speedmaster includes a limited-edition Krone Apollo 11 pen featuring authentic Kapton foil from the Columbia module. Authenticated by Buzz Aldrin, it masterfully honours the moon landing through symbolic design.
