Discover the Omega Speedmaster Moonphase Chronograph Master Chronometer with its stunning blue dial and METAS-certified Caliber 9904.

Clueless_Collector shares his journey to acquiring the Omega Speedmaster Moonphase Chronograph Master Chronometer, a watch he initially resisted but ultimately succumbed to. His post highlights the allure of its blue dial and METAS-certified Caliber 9904, offering a personal account of choosing this specific model over other contenders. The article captures the excitement of a new acquisition and the unique details that make this Speedmaster stand out.

I finally succumbed to this one.

I always wanted a 9300 speed master but can't decide WSOTM, not "White" Side Of The Moon but "Which" Side Of The Moon, so when I saw this launch in Basel 2016, I figured this is the one, 9904 with METAS.

The blue dial is very nice with deep radiants, so another blue watch to start 2017. Will try to find Buzz's footprint when I get a loupe.

I was so close to getting the Cartier Drive, very classic.

This is an elegant dress watch.

Key Points from the Discussion

The watch's movement is beautiful, and the subtle detail of Buzz Aldrin's footprint on the moonphase disc is a superb feature that adds charm.
The blue dial is particularly striking and is likely even more impressive in person, contributing significantly to the watch's appeal.
The author's impulse purchase is understood by others who have experienced similar temptations, especially at Omega boutiques in places like Geneva.
The Omega flagship store in Geneva featured a large, realistic moon display in its window, creating an immersive experience for visitors and connecting to the watch's lunar theme.
The author confirms he will look for the Buzz Aldrin footprint detail on the moonphase when he returns, highlighting a key feature for owners.

Switzerland is an amazing country ;-)

I don\'t know if you had time to see the Geneva Omega flagship last weekend but the main window has a big real moon... the same you know wear on your wrist I tried to take a picture of it as it is really impressive for me but the reflects were too significant unfortunately :-( Best wishes Alkiro
