The Omega Speedmaster is perhaps one of the most imporꦅtant watches of all time, and the 105.003 is an significant part of its storied past. Known as the ‘Ed White,’ this reference holds two distinctions: being both the last ‘straight-lug’ Speedmaster and the first watch worn on a spacewalk – or EVA (extra-vehicular activity). Named after Astronaut Edward Higgins White II, who wore this reference on the Gemini IV mission, the 105.003 sealed its place in NASA history decades ago. Powered by the legendary Omega calibre 321, this reference is of such important to the brand that it was re-issued in 2020.

The present example is offered in excellent overall condition and is fitted to a period correct Omega ‘flat-link’ bracelet. Replete with its inner and outer boxes, instruction book🤡lets, blank guarantee papers, and an extract from the Omega archives which dates the watch to January of 1968, this watch is a prime example for any collector to add into their watch rotation.
