The Omega Speedmaster Professional is a wristwatch lauded for its exceptional performance and classic design.

It was originally intended for use in motorsports, but its association with NASAs Apollo missions led to it being dubbed the "Moonwatch." In 1969, during the Apollo 11 mission, it was the first timepiece to be worn on the moon.

The Speedmaster Professional has a 42mm stainless steel case, a black dial with three subdials, and a bezel with a tachymeter scale. Its manually wound chronograph movement has a 48-hour power reserve and 50-meter water resistance.

The watchs design has undergone some modifications over the years, but its fundamental features have remained essentially unchanged. It has a distinctive appearance due to the contrast between the white hour markers, hands, and sub-dial circles on its black dial. The Speedmaster Professionals tachymeter bezel is also a unique feature, allowing the wearer to measure speed over a fixed distance, and make calculations for various other purposes such as fuel consumption.

The Speedmaster Professional is powered by the Omega caliber 861.

Numerous celebrities have donned the Omega Speedmaster Professional, including astronauts, actors, and performers. It has also appeared in several films, including the James Bond feature "Goldeneye" and the Neil Armstrong biopic "First Man."

In addition to the classic stainless steel model, the Speedmaster Professional is also available in gold, titanium, and ceramic, among other materials and hues. In addition, there are several limited-edition models, including the Apollo 11 50th Anniversary edition and the Snoopy Award edition.

The Omega Speedmaster Professional is an iconic timepiece that has had a significant impact on the watch industry. It has become a favourite among collectors and enthusiasts due to its extraordinary history and lasting appeal.
