Moon to Mars Request(s)

Hello,

Ever since seeing a picture of the Speedmaster "From the Moon to Mars" edition I am really wanting one.

Can you guys post some pictures of your Moon to Mars watches? I would really like to see one on a leather strap! I am a newb when it comes to Omegas so please execuse my ignorance! Does the speedmaster pro series come with a leather strap on any of the models?

Thanks in advance!

Many Speedy Pros come with leather strap, but I have never seen a "Moon to Mars" with leather strap.

Fantastic looking watch Dan!

My only holdback is the fact that it is manual and not automatic.

I have never have seen one on a leather band from the factory. But just buy one and purchase a Omega leather band from your AD

Icon12 Moon to Mars on leather...

there!

I wear my Speedies always on leather straps. The "contrast" fits the classic
Moonwatch case (or any Speedy case for that matter) wonderfully, I think!
The curved/twisted "lyre" lugs just come out better when the watch is worn
on leather (or on NATO or on velcro)! But that's just my 2c...

Anyway, as I don't have it, I've just "photoChopped" the Moon to Mars
(3577.50.00) on leather... here it is:



Would look great on leather... as all Speedies do!!!

& B/R

Petros,

Thanks a lot for taking the time to "chop" the pictures. You may have just cost me some money!

Hi Jordan ,

you're very welcome...!
Though, I guess that makes me now officially certified guilty for the
sneak-attack on your wallet...!!!

Any classic "Professional" Speedmaster is a great entry into the world of
Omega, so you've made a wonderful choice! I'm sure you will enjoy it (and
its rich history & heritage) a lot, when you get it!
