Moon to Mars

So with President Trump ordering manned mission to the Moon and eventual mission to Mars, what's the likelyhood of the Moon to Mars being rereleased and what effect will it have on price for the originals.

Trump orders NASA to return to Moon to lay foundations for Mars trip

I'd wait before I started speculating. I won't believe it until money is actually allocated for the mission.

I doubt seriously they would re-release it. But you can still find the original out there for a reasonable price.

I think there will be interest in them, if the mission ever takes place.

I already have one.

It would seem like ai may be correct, with a quick search on an auction site and a large watch site, prices seem to be climbing.

Cheapest I could find was in Germany $4733.
Cheapest in US $4990
Only one I could find for sale in U.K. £5000,
And finally a new unworn in Germany $7897

I'd never watch a strap like that but the moon to Mars is stunning.

Pretty sure its not a new plan. At least the previous two presidents have said the same thing.

Im sure there will be several LE's for the mission

How do the sub dials hold up quality wise with the passage of, well, time?
