However I have recently come across the Speedmaster 1st Omega in Space edition (can't keep up with number of special/numbered editions of speedmaster). I like the look of the smaller face (39mm vs 42mm), the exposed lugs and the Alpha hands. This watch also has a great history and a tribute to the original, just as the Moonwatch is.
They are a nearly the same RRP price, but you get more for your money with the Moonwatch - steel bracelet, spare NATO straps and other goodies in the box. Also has a nicer box but the 1st Omega in Space is a numbered edition.
Any opinions out there as to which one is more preferred? Thanks.
Thanks!

It's personal taste and I find pleasure in both. They have their own part in the history of the "Moonwatch." Sounds like your heart lies with the FOIS and I would stick with that. Gorgeous watch, wearing mine these couple days:
