  The first Omega Seamaster was introduced in 1948 , making it one of the longest-running watch collections still in production today. Here are the key details: Release Year: 1948 Reason for Creation: Omega launched the Seamaster to celebrate the company's 100th anniversary (Omega was founded in 1848).

Omega created this special Speedmaster to honor that groundbreaking mission and its role in paving the way for the Apollo 11 Moon landing. The watch features a 44.25 mm black ceramic case and a highly distinctive skeletonized dial that reveals a specially decorated version of Omega's manual-winding chronograph movement. The movement is laser-ablated to resemble the Moon's surface, with the dial side representing the Moon's near side and the caseback showing the cratered far side. Powered by the Co-Axial...
