The Eagle Has Landed

Got my Apollo 11 50th last week. Just wanted to post a few pictures. Thanks for the help from the Omega Boutique in Roseville, CA. I remember watching the landing on a 12” B+W set in upstate NY while camping in an Airstream trailer. I ran outside to see the moon and if as a five year old to figure out if I could see them landing with my own eyes!!





















The Airstream that the Apollo 11 Astronauts were quarantined in after the mission at the Air and Space Museum near Dulles Airpor

I am too young to have witnessed the landing first-hand but it is one of humanity's most amazing technical achievements. I am very curious about this new bracelet - it looks very nice

Thanks

I will see if it can be ordered separately but I doubt it at this stage

Great looking Omega .
