I'm a little embarrassed - please help

Stunning blue stepped dial and a DON Bezel that much I can figure out. I'm guessing a LE, but which one and it's model number? Thanx, Miki

It's an Apollo 11 50th Anniversary in SS from 2019 Miki 😁. The cool thing is I have the matching Moonshine with the same number in the series which was a huge favor from my boutique and Omega 😁😉

This and the Apollo 11 Moonshine were the 1st Speedmasters with the NEW caliber 3861 which are METAS certified master chronometers and run amazingly as well 😉 Most don't even know how durable and robust this new caliber is compared to other sports watches. It is actually more resistant to shock, magnetism, etc...than any comparable Rolex. The caliber 3861 is resistant to 5000 G forces, YES 5000 G. So definitely ready for Interstellar travel 😳🤪
