It sure is a nice decorative touch, and I’m trying to find out if the lunar surface also makes the wrist less sweaty in high temperatures. When I strapped the gold Speedmaster on my wrist, the first word that sprung to mind was “vacation”.īy the way, the inside of the strap shows little Moon craters in positive relief. It needs to be out in the open and play in the sun. The black rubber strap with its two vertical stripes is simply too sporty for that. This extremely posh yet informal Speedmaster - it’s a €30,400 gold watch, after all - is not a timepiece you want to hide under the cuff.
Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonshine Gold “Panda” Even the slightest hint of a tan brings out the sunny character of this particular Speedmaster’s noble alloy. But what truly transforms Moonshine Gold into Sunshine Gold is seeing the alloy worn on sun-kissed skin.
SWATCH GUARD FULL
I can’t help but think of the John Player Special-sponsored Lotus Formula 1 cars of yesteryear… Even better, a vintage “JPS” race car seen today with slightly faded gold markings caused by years of racing in full sunshine. And it’s the sharp contrast of the black sub-dials, Ceragold ceramic bezel, and black strap that adds luxurious power to the Speedmaster Professional Moonshine Gold “Panda”. The softly shimmering Moonshine Gold case and dial light up gloriously when the sunlight hits them.
And if not in real life, then at least in a vacation daydream. You get my point? If you truly want to shine this summer, having something gold on your wrist is certainly the way to go. And the black rubber strap sure is another summery touch. And maybe that’s why I think that when the bright July sun hits the Moonshine Gold Speedmaster, the noble alloy strikes me as Sunshine Gold. Am I suffering from heatstroke this Speedy Tuesday when I say that my ultimate summer watch is the Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonshine Gold “Panda”? I don’t know.
