Though it would be more than two years before NASA would select the Omega Speedmaster as their go-to timepiece, the CK 2998 was indeed the first Omega replica watch in space and has held an significant place in both Omega's history and in the hearts of many a Speedy collector. The new Omega speedmaster moonwatch "CK2998" (Omega's quotations, not mine) boasts a beautiful blue coloring anchored by a silvery white dial and a 39.7mm steel case. The panda-style dial gives the "CK2998" a distinct look that sits somewhere between the black-dialed original "FOiS" and the Sedna gold model launched last year.
The classic 39.7mm-wide case features a polished blue ceramic bezel and a white Super-LumiNova tachymeter scale. On the dial itself are applied rhodium-plated indices, that familiar "lollipop" chronograph seconds hand, as well as the hour and minute hands, all of which feature Super-LumiNova. On the back of the case, you'll see the classic Speedmaster seahorse to pull together the look. No foreign text on either the front or the back - always a good move.
In a departure from the original and the Sedna variants, the Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch "CK2998" has been fitted with a lollipop seconds hand and a lumed tachymeter scale on the bezel. The case back is solid and bears Omega's original Speedmaster Seahorse medallion and the "CK2998" is water resistant to 50 meters. Powered by Speedy-famous calibre 1861, Omega has wisely decided to continue their use of this legacy movement in the vintage inspired "First Omega in Space" models. The 1861 is a manually wound and cam-actuated 12-hour chronograph with a 48-hour power reserve. Given its lineage and connection to early space exploration, the 1861 is a big deal for Omega, and its continued use is not only a nod to their specific past but also to the old-school reality of watch enthusiasm - especially when juxtaposed by the highly technical reality of Omega's modern movements (think: co-axial, anti-magnetic, and METAS certification).
Aesthetic changes aside, what makes this an Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch is the ticking mechanical heart - the Calibre 1861 movement. The same movement used in the original Moonwatch, this manual calibre operates at 21,600 vph (3Hz) and provides a power reserve of 48 hours. For a lot of Speedmaster fanatics, the modernity of the case updates combined with the connection to the original movement will be a tempting lure.
