LUNAR1969 : L’HOMMAGE À APOLLO 11 AVEC UN FRAGMENT LUNAIRE

LUNAR1969: TRIBUTE TO APOLLO 11 WITH A LUNAR FRAGMENT

Set with a genuine fragment of a lunar meteorite, the LUNAR 1969 watch embodies the courage of the Apollo XI pioneers and perpetuates the memory of this moment when man crossed the boundaries of possibility.

On July 20, 1969, humanity set foot on another world.

On that July day in 1969, millions of eyes were turned to the sky. Man walked on the Moon for the first time, fulfilling an age-old dream. Neil Armstrong, followed by Buzz Aldrin, wrote the names of the Apollo 11 crew into history, forever etching this date into the collective memory.

A WATCH inspired by the APOLLO 11 mission

Col&MacArthur pays homage to this moment suspended in time with LUNAR1969, a moon watch designed as a true testament to the epic space adventure. At its heart is an authentic fragment of a lunar meteorite, bringing a piece of this legendary moment to your wrist.

LUNAR 1969: THE COMMEMORATIVE WATCH, AN ETERNAL TRACTOR OF THE MOON LANDING, A TRIBUTE ENGRAVED IN TIME

The symbolism of the LUNAR1969 does not stop at the setting of an authentic fragment of a lunar meteorite. This watch reveals on its dial the coordinates of the six Apollo missions that landed on the Moon, as well as a bright dot marking the exact location of the first step on the Moon, in the "Mare Tranquillitatis". The date of July 20, 1969, engraved at 9:56 p.m. on the case, recalls the moment when man crossed a decisive frontier. On the back, the imprint of the very first step seals this tribute to the pioneers of space.

A limited edition designed for watchmaking and space exploration enthusiasts, or those who dream of the combination of the two.

Produced in a strictly limited edition, the LUNAR1969 comes in two exclusive versions: 1,969 pieces for the quartz version, in homage to the year of the moon landing, and only a few hundred for the automatic version, intended for lovers of exceptional watchmaking.

Each watch is individually numbered and comes with a certificate of authenticity attesting to the provenance of the encapsulated lunar fragment. This rarity, combined with the precision of a Swiss-made movement, makes it a sought-after piece among space enthusiasts and those who value exceptional timepieces.
