It is impossible to get people to buy a Speedmaster without mentioning the moon landing. After all, “the watch worn by man when he first landed on the moon” is indeed a fascinating story, and the legendary status of the watch is almost established by this. But that’s not the only reason we recommend the Speedmaster. Today, even in front of the younger generation who do not know Armstrong and have no sense of the history of the moon landing, we can still confidently tell him that this watch has a textbook design and is equipped with the best chronograph in history. The core is not inferior at Rolex’s Daytona and it won’t be as frustrating to buy as a Daytona.
The Speedmaster has many facets in its more than sixty-five year history, and the space watch is just one of them; of course, one can start from the more classic lunar watch, but one can also follow Schumacher from the racing version to buy it, or go directly to the X-33 that European astronauts currently wear, and a speedmaster has its own expression.
Because MoonSwatch, which is co-branded with Swatch, has been advertised a lot, the popularity of Speedmaster has increased a lot since last year, but the difficulty of obtaining it and the price are still reasonable in Taiwan, no matter what the reason for which I have never been against. There was interest in this watch and it is still time to sell.
1. Speedmaster moon watch
The authentic descendant of the 1969 moon watch, the most representative style of the Speedmaster. The model has just been changed in 2021, but apart from the fact that the movement has been updated to 3861 with a coaxial escapement, the appearance is closer to the old version than the previous generation, and the chain strap is more comfortable to wear. There are two types of steel shell models: solid bottom plastic mirror and transparent bottom sapphire mirror. The former faithfully reproduces the appearance of the original version, while the latter can see the movement and the mirror is more durable. Most People Everything will fall into a barrier of choice here.
