The MoonSwatch has recently captured the imagination. But this video covers the template for the Omega and Swatch collaboration.
The Omega Speedmaster Automatic is a watch that is modular in design. The engine is an ETA 2892 movement and the chronograph functions are provisioned by the Dubois Depraz Chronograph Module. This lot combined Omega call the Calibre 3220.
The watch has a fascinating history being a direct descendant of the Omega Speedmaster Professional which Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong took to the Moon in the 1969 NASA Mission.
But is this 3510.50.00 from Omega any good? In this video UK watchmaker Richard Perrett takes a good look and works towards an answer to this important question.
