HEADLINE: July 20th, 1969 ... ALIENS Land On The Moon !!!

Well, they were alien lifeforms on the surface of the Moon :)

Commander Neil Armstrong and lunar module pilot Buzz Aldrin landed the Apollo Lunar Module called Eagle on July 20, 1969, at 20:17 UTC. As history shows, Mr. Armstrong became the first human to step onto the Moon's surface six hours and 39 minutes later, on July 21, at 02:56 UTC. Aldrin joined him 19 minutes later.

And like all great commemorative timepiece releases by Omega, where they pulled out all the stops with an abundance of extras... Here you also enjoy a golden Fisher Space Pen, golden astronaut, a couple of special NASA mission patches, a totally cool cork strap and metal bracelet, plus a very high-quality watchmaker's loupe too! And yes, the watch holder is a Lunar Lander :)

That's one small step for man...

I appreciate (and own) the Omega Speedmaster watch even without all these superficialities.
