Omega Speedmaster's Worship - Basel World Edition
Omega launched the latest moon watch at the Basel Watch Fair, which is a good reason to celebrate the iconic super fighter.
At the Basel International Watch Fair in 2018, there were many discussions about how social media became a community. A photo of a watch that will not be released within a few months will be praised, criticized or commented immediately after the Instagram photo is released.
Perhaps the most amazing watch-related online phenomenon is #SpeedyTuesday--a weekly celebration event in which proud owners of Omega Speedmasters posted pictures of their moon charts on social media.
Why do they do this? Communicate with other Speedmasters and celebrate the thunderstorm.replica Harry Winston Marquise Time by Harry Winston watches

We bet that Speedy's reason for inspiring this passion is because it has reached the moon!
The latest issue of "The Dark Side of Speed of the Apollo 8 Moon" was released at the Basel World Exposition in 2018 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 8 mission - this is the first space flight in the moon's orbit.
Although it is not the dark side of the first lunar model, this version feels special because it looks very different.luxury replica watches for men
At the Basel International Watch Fair, we met Jean-Claude Monachon, Vice President of Omega Product and Customer Services, to explore the dark side of Apollo 8's moon. Everything on the watch is carefully observed, even exercised. The dial has been hollowed out to show the interior operation of the decoration. Bridges and motherboards have been textured, and laser ablation is used to etch the bridges and boards to make them look like the moon's surface.
According to Monachon's other lunar similarities, including its two unique aspects. Dialers appear as lighter ebony, while the back is darker than black. In the case you will find the inscription 'We see you on the other side', these words are made by Apollo 8 command module pilot Jim Lovell in Apollo 8-command module around the back of the moon. When these words are spoken, the human eye has never seen the dark side of the moon.
The dark side of the moon Apollo 8 is made of black zirconia ceramic. In contrast, this brand chose the classic yellow code that Omega used for Speedmaster for the first time in 1968.
Another hat related to the process of space exploration, Apollo 8's dark side is equipped with the famous 1861 Moonwatch caliber - or, Monachon said, "This sport is actually on the moon!"

Of course, there are many kinds of moon watches. This brings us back to the origin of Tuesday.
The memes started when Robert-Jan Broer of the Fratello watch used the label SpeedyTuesday to post a photo of his Speedmasters on Facebook. On May 29, 2012, the blog released the first issue of Speedy Tuesday Story. According to the true community spirit, these weekly posts have no connection with Omega. This is just a take-off. This tag has jumped on social platforms since then, and the #speedytuesday tag has been used more than 100,000 times on Instagram.replica PATEK PHILIPPE Grand Complications watches price
Omega itself introduced a special edition of Speedy Tuesday in 2017, dedicated to online sports. Based on the Alaska III made by NASA in 1978, this watch requires a reflective and easy-to-read watch. "Rapid Tuesday" glorified this classic design with an inverted panda display but updated the brushed stainless steel case and radial subdials.
If you like the look of a classic panda dial, consider the latest Omega Speedmaster CK2998 models. The limited edition of 2,998 pieces is also a rare feature for the Speedmaster family, as its ceramic bezel is equipped with a pulsometer (a tachometer for calculating blood pressure).

According to Monachon, the latest CK2998 will be available in July, reflecting the innovation in ceramic technology. It will also be equipped with two straps: striped NATO and perforated blue leather. "They mean feel comfortable."
Although the CK2998 Omega did not reinvent the Superba, it showed the community that it was listening. As followers of #SpeedyTuesday learn more about vintage models, the more they want to see the brand revisit the classic story while paying attention to the size of modern tastes and the use of the latest mechanics.buy HUBLOT MP 05 LAFERRARI 905.ND.0001.RX replica watch
