On the other side is a retro-looking watch, the 60th-anniversary edition released as part of a historically-inspired trilogy. You […]
Unless you’ve been living in a non-connected world for the last two weeks, you’ll know that Omega has just launched a new, profoundly updated version of its classic Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional, now equipped with a new movement – with Co-Axial escapement and Master Chronometer-certified – and with a new design.
