$22k for some used Speedmaster

“This Space-Worn Omega Speedmaster earned its moniker more directly than most, on the arm of cosmonaut Gennady Padalka. Padalka holds the record for most cumulative days spent in space aboard the International Space Station. The watch has made a total of 2 thousand orbits, taken part in a nearly 6-hour EVA, and has likely been in space longer than any other timepiece. It’s mounted on a black Velcro wristband, while the original metal bracelet is included, along with the original box, manual, and two letters of authenticity signed by Padalka, one typed and one handwritten.”

In Soviet Russia, American made watch orbits earth 2k times and sells for many capitalist dollars.

I placed a bid on this. Please don’t bid this too high guys I would like it for less than $50K.

Swiss-made?

Doesn’t even come with a commemorative box or stainless steel brand. Pass

sweet band…

Sorry, obviously Omega is Swiss. I was caught up in the thematic reference.

nice watch

I figured - Swiss would have made a great addition to the reference as they’re the ultimate money grubbers.

that band looks like some untamed muff… and for that reason, I am in.

“no muff too tough”
