It is deeply woven with The Legacy of Wally Schirra in Omega’s space history: in 1962, astronaut Walter “Wally” Schirra wore his personal Omega Speedmaster CK2998 during the Sigma 7 mission of the Mercury-Atlas 8 program, marking the first time an Omega reached orbit and setting the stage for the Speedmaster’s enduring association with space exploration. Inspired by this milestone, Omega has created a Numbered Edition Speedmaster “First Omega in Space” (FOIS) that pays tribute to the original, combining vintage aesthetics with modern precision — a design widely regarded as one of the most wearable and elegant interpretations of the Speedmaster Moonwatch. Its design highlights include a refined 39.7 mm steel case with symmetric straight lugs (a nod to the pre-Professional era) and a scratch-resistant crystal with anti-reflective treatment; a classic black dial with three sub-dials and iconic “Alpha” hands distinguishing it from the standard Moonwatch; and a manual-wind chronograph movement directly descended from the calibres that went to the Moon. Fitted on its original brown calfskin leather strap with beige stitching and a steel buckle, the FOIS delivers a warm, vintage-inspired look that appeals to both collectors and connoisseurs alike. The rarest examples — especially historically linked pieces — have commanded strong prices at auction\u003cspan\u003e—bid now!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grailzee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51729526521988,"sku":null,"price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/3175\/2836\/files\/main-media-image-1637302.webp?v=1776031803","url":"https:\/\/grailzee.com\/products\/omega-speedmaster-professional-moonwatch-311-32-40-30-01-5","provider":"Grailzee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
