On July 20, 1969, humanity set foot on another world
On that day in July 1969, millions of eyes were turned skyward. Man walked on the Moon for the first time, fulfilling an age-old dream. Neil Armstrong, followed by Buzz Aldrin, etched the names of the Apollo 11 crew into history, forever etching that date into the collective memory.
A WATCH inspired by the APOLLO 11 mission
It is this moment suspended in time that Col&McArthur pays homage to with LUNAR1969, a moon watch designed as a true witness to the space epic. At its heart lies an authentic fragment of a lunar meteorite, allowing you to wear a piece of this mythical moment on your wrist.
LUNAR 1969: THE COMMEMORATIVE WATCH, AN eternal trace of the moon landing, a tribute etched in time
The symbolism of the LUNAR1969 extends beyond the setting of an authentic fragment of lunar meteorite. This watch displays 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 July 20, 1969, engraved at 9:56 PM on the case, commemorates the moment when humankind crossed a decisive threshold. On the case back, the imprint of that very first step seals this tribute to the pioneers of space exploration.
A limited edition designed for watch enthusiasts, 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 accompanied by a certificate of authenticity attesting to the origin of the encapsulated lunar fragment. This rarity, combined with the precision of a Swiss-made movement, makes it a prized piece for space enthusiasts and collectors of exceptional timepieces.
