Speedmaster Moonwatch Apollo 8 Dark Side Of The Moon 44.25mm

How it wears

Wears smaller than its 44.25 mm case suggests

Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Apollo 8 Dark Side Of The Moon 44.25mm measures 49 mm lug-to-lug on a 44.25 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.11 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 73% of the 7,421 watches in this database and longer than 71% of the 487 Omega watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 55 mm (2.17 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 66 mm (2.60 in) it starts to look compact. Below 49 mm (1.93 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 12 mm thick it sits within the typical range, thicker than 45% of the watches with a listed thickness.
