Omega created a team to develop an outer case for their Speedmaster watch to withstand the extreme temperatures of outer space. Omega named the project the "Alaska Project". NASA however declared the watch in its original design would suffice, thus the results remained a prototype. Omega has now released the watch in a limited edition. This is one of the more unique watches you will ever find and at a reasonable price. This is a real collector's/conversation piece. Priced to sell $4,900 delivered CONUS.
