Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon Apollo 8

The Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon Apollo 8 is a striking tribute to the historic Apollo 8 mission of 1968, when humans first orbited the Moon. This extraordinary chronograph unites space heritage, advanced materials, and intricate craftsmanship into one remarkable timepiece.

Crafted from sleek black ceramic, the 44.25 mm case delivers a bold yet lightweight presence on the wrist. Its skeletonized dial reveals the exquisitely decorated movement beneath, where laser-engraved bridges recreate the lunar surface — dark on the dial side, light on the case back — symbolizing the Moon’s two faces as seen by astronauts.

At its heart beats the Omega Calibre 1869, a specially decorated manual-winding chronograph inspired by the legendary Calibre 1861 that powered the Moonwatch. The chronograph hands stand out in vivid yellow, offering a modern contrast against the deep black dial, while Super-LumiNova details ensure legibility in any light.

With a black perforated leather strap lined with yellow rubber, this timepiece is both daring and refined. The engraved case back proudly reads: “WE’LL SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE” — the final words heard before Apollo 8’s spacecraft disappeared behind the Moon.
