2. Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch

The original offering of this watch was named Speedmaster Professional Chronograph, but it earned the Moonwatch name because it actually travelled to the Moon. In 1969, astronaut Buzz Aldrin wore the watch on his first trip to the moon, the Apollo mission, hence the name. Not only that, but for all of Nasa’s following missions to the moon, the Omega Speedmaster became the sponsored accessory.

It is a very precise, robust, and easy-to-read watch, which is why Nasa chose it. The moonlight complication followed quite a few years later though, which is located at the 6 o’clock dial. It is one of Omega’s most popular models ever.

1. Omega Seamaster 300

This rose-gold model from the Seamaster collection is a real beauty. We chose it as our favorite, because, well, look at it. Made from Sedna gold with a black face, its simplicity and clean design make it breathtaking. Sedna gold is a material that can be characterized as an alloy. It combines copper, gold, and palladium, and it results in a unique 18k rose gold that solely Omega manufactures.

This model rocks a 41mm case, and it is a masterpiece that is appropriate for any occasion. To top it all off, it can even be submerged up to 300 meters underwater.
