| The 35th anniversary of their historic handshake is commemorated with the release of the OMEGA Speedmaster Professional Apollo-Soyuz “35th Anniversary” chronograph in a limited edition of 1975 watches. The dial has been created from a meteorite which survived its entry into our planet’s atmosphere and the high-speed impact with the terrestrial surface. The meteorite’s unusual structure is the result its very high temperature when it enters the Earth’s atmosphere, followed by a period of cooling. The dial is a single piece cut from the meteorite; accordingly, because no two pieces of the meteorite are exactly alike, each watch in this limited edition is absolutely unique. The black color of the meteorite dial is the result of a surface oxidation process. The silvery seconds hand and chronograph counters appear in the meteorite’s natural color. ____________________________________ | |

Nah, as I hear it Invicta has been leasing out their unused space and factory time to Omega so that Omega can claim to have an actual factory in Switzerland. Too bad about them copying Invicta, must have been some plans laying around when the Omega folks came on at night for their time with the machines. |

| Pretty impressive! If any watch deserved to have a meteorite dial it would have to be this one! |
