Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon Watches

The Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon is a collection of luxury watches produced by Omega, a Swiss watchmaker established in 1848. This series is renowned for its black ceramic case and sophisticated design, paying tribute to the brand's historical connection with space exploration, particularly its role as the first watch worn on the moon during the Apollo missions.

The Dark Side of the Moon collection was launched in 2013 and features several variations, including the Dark Side of the Moon Black, the Dark Side of the Moon Sedna, and the Dark Side of the Moon Mission to Mars. The watches are celebrated for their advanced technology, including a co-axial escapement, and their aesthetic appeal, often drawing parallels to the vastness and mystery of outer space, hence the name.

Culturally, Omega's Speedmaster has been referenced in various movies and TV shows, often symbolizing precision and adventure. Notable appearances include films like "Apollo 13" and "Interstellar," where the watch’s association with space exploration is highlighted.

Pricing for the Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon typically ranges from $10,000 to $15,000 when new, depending on the specific model and features. Used models can be somewhat hard to find, as they are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts, which can drive up demand and pricing in the secondary market. Availability can vary, but finding a used model may require some effort due to the desirability and limited production runs of certain versions.
