The OMEGA x Swatch MoonSwatch 1965 is more than just a timepiece—it is a tribute to history. Honoring the year NASA officially flight-qualified the Speedmaster for space missions, this latest Bioceramic MoonSwatch merges vintage inspiration with modern materials, delivering a chronograph that’s as stylish as it is significant.
Housed in a gray Bioceramic case, the watch sports a white dial, black tachymeter bezel, and unique chronograph counters at 10 and 2 o’clock, calibrated to 19 hours and 65 minutes—an offbeat but meaningful reference to 1965. Under UV light, the numbers 19, 65, and 60 glow blue, a nod to the Speedmaster’s NASA-certified legacy. A subtle yet striking Moon image on the battery cover reinforces its cosmic connection.
Unlike traditional MoonSwatch releases, this edition leans heavily into the classic Speedmaster aesthetic, featuring OMEGA’s vintage logo, signature hands, and a sleek gray Velcro® strap for an astronaut-ready feel. The box-shaped biosourced glass and recessed subdials add to its refined execution, making it a serious collector’s piece at just $270.
For those who love the Speedmaster’s legacy but want something fresh and playful, the MoonSwatch 1965 delivers in spades. Whether you’re a space enthusiast, a watch collector, or just someone who appreciates clean, timeless design, this Bioceramic chronograph is the closest you’ll get to strapping a piece of history on your wrist.
