Moonwatch Apollo 11 40th Anniversary – Platinum Edition (42mm)

Released to celebrate four decades since mankind’s first steps on the moon, the Apollo 11 40th Anniversary Platinum is a watch of immense gravity—both historically and physically. The use of platinum elevates the tool-watch aesthetic into the realm of high jewelry, offering a stealth-wealth experience that only the wearer truly understands.

Design & Craftsmanship

The Gold Medallion:
The defining feature is the small seconds sub-dial at 9 o’clock. It is not printed, but sculpted. A solid 18K yellow gold medallion features a high-relief engraving of the Apollo 11 mission patch: an eagle descending onto the lunar surface with an olive branch. The detail is exquisite, popping against the matte black background.

Platinum Case Weight:
Crafted from solid Platinum 950, this watch has a reassuring heft that distinguishes it from standard steel models. The cool, white sheen of platinum is understated, flying under the radar until it catches the light with its unique, lustrous glow.

Anniversary Details:
The dial features the time “02:56 GMT” printed in red—the exact moment Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon. The caseback is equally special, featuring the Apollo 11 mission patch in relief, reminding you that this is no ordinary chronograph.

Technical Specifications

On The Wrist

This is a watch for those who appreciate hidden value. To the untrained eye, it looks like a classic Moonwatch. But the weight on the wrist and the flash of gold from the eagle medallion tell a different story. It is a piece of history, executed with the finest materials available.
