Buzz Aldrin Celebrates Moon Landing With Omega
On June 3, astronaut Buzz Aldrin and Omega CEO Stephen Urquhart celebrated the 40th anniversary of the first moon walk at the Omega flagship boutique on Fifth Avenue in New York City. Aldrin and Neil Armstrong were the first humans to set foot on the moon when they made their historic Apollo 11 moonwalk on July 20, 1969. The Omega Speedmaster was the first and only watch worn on the moon. To mark the anniversary, Omega has launched the Speedmaster Apollo 11 Moonwatch, a limited edition timepiece inspired by the original watch worn on the moon.

Reset it yesterday and it lost one minute over night.I generally leave it on one side one night, flat the next and rotate it that way.Bought the watch about a month ago from a gentleman on TZ. Suggestions?Thanks guys,BTW-Pretty sure it is still under warranty so may just take it to an AD

Zombie apocalypse watch
Hi all,Pretty weird thread, I've been watching quite a bit of the walking dead lately and one of the main characters has been wearing what appears to be the same watch for a number of series! My question is in this circumstances what watch would you want to have on your wrist, would need to be hard wearing, reliable and accurate! My vote goes to the 116610ln slightly impartial as the only Rolex I own but let me know what you guys would wear.
