Originally introduced in 1957 for race-timing, the Speedmaster was first qualified


by NASA in 1965 after surviving a series of the most punishing tests. Since that


historic moment it has been trusted for the most daring missions beyond Earth,


including the first moon landing in 1969 and the rescue of Apollo 13 one year


later. Today, the Speedmaster remains essentially unchanged in its design


and spirit, and we are looking forward to the next era of space exploration.
