The Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional is the hand-wound, 42 mm chronograph that NASA qualified for spaceflight in 1965 and astronauts wore on the Moon in 1969. We carry it in steel and in Omega's gold alloys, on a bracelet, leather or textile strap, from about $9,700 to $94,000 CAD. La Maison Monaco is an authorized Omega dealer in Canada; about 5 are in stock and about 9 more are available to order.
The steel Moonwatch Professional on a bracelet is the classic. It comes with a Hesalite crystal, true to the watches worn in space, or a sapphire crystal with a display caseback that shows the movement. Gold references and special dials sit above it. Every Moonwatch Professional is 42 mm and hand-wound, so the choice is mostly crystal, dial and strap.
What movement is in the Moonwatch?
The current Moonwatch Professional uses Omega's hand-wound Co-Axial Master Chronometer chronograph calibre, certified by METAS for accuracy and resistance to magnetic fields, with about 50 hours of power reserve. You wind it by hand every day or two, which is part of the ritual for most owners and true to the original Moonwatch.

Frequently asked questions
How much is an Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch in Canada?+
The Moonwatch Professional runs from about $9,700 CAD in steel to about $94,000 CAD in gold. Steel versions on a bracelet, leather or textile strap sit at the lower end, and gold references at the top. Every price is in Canadian dollars, with the Omega manufacturer warranty.
Hesalite or sapphire Moonwatch?+
Hesalite is the acrylic crystal of the original space-flown watches, with a warmer look and a solid caseback. Sapphire is more scratch-resistant and comes with a display caseback. Both use the same hand-wound movement, so the choice is about look and durability.
Is the Omega Moonwatch automatic?+
No. The Moonwatch Professional is hand-wound, like the watches worn on the Moon, and holds about 50 hours of power reserve, so you wind it by hand every day or two. Other Speedmaster models, such as the Speedmaster 38 and the Speedmaster Racing, are automatic.
What is the difference between the Speedmaster and the Moonwatch?+
The Moonwatch is the Speedmaster Professional, the 42 mm hand-wound chronograph with the design flown by NASA. Speedmaster is the wider family, which also includes automatic models in other sizes. If you want the original lunar watch, the Moonwatch Professional is the one.
Can you swim with an Omega Moonwatch?+
Not safely. The Moonwatch Professional is water-resistant to 50 m, which covers rain and washing your hands, but it is not designed for swimming or diving. For a swimming watch, the Seamaster Aqua Terra offers 150 m and the Diver 300M offers 300 m.
Is a Moonwatch from La Maison Monaco new and covered by warranty?+
Yes. La Maison Monaco is an authorized Omega dealer in Canada with 15 boutiques across Quebec and Ontario, and every Moonwatch is sold new with the Omega manufacturer warranty. Some references are in stock and the rest are ordered in. 0% Flexiti financing is available on approved credit.
