Watch Out! Omega Watches Land In KaDeWe
by Rie Cau posted on July 23, 2009OK!
Not everybody is one amongst the 300 million proud citizens of the United States Of America, but that does not mean you cannot celebrate NASA‘s illustrious landing on the moon as a global citizen.
As the Astronaut Neil Armstrong once said, the significant event in 1969 is ”one small step for man; one giant leap for mankind" in global history; hence, effectively changing all of our little lives around all corners of the earth.
LEXPOSURE.NET is proud to present to you this über-special exhibition at Berlin‘s glorious department store, KaDeWe.
The exhibition, entitled “The 40th Anniversary of the Moon Landing” (In German: “40 jähriges Jubiläum Mondlandung”), is set to display the finest selection from OMEGA‘s lavish watch collection on its window displays and entrance hall from Monday 20 July till Saturday 22 August 2009.
Due to conditions on the moon, the electronic timing system on the Lunar Module was not functioning back in 1969.
However, Omega’s renowned Speedmaster Professional Chronograph watch, worn at the time by the equally tough Astronaut Buzz Aldrin, was.
Thus, the prestigious title of ”first watch on the moon” went to the Swiss company and the legend was born at that remarkably momentous moment.
The watch precisely timed each step the astronauts took under the Moon‘s bizarre surface.
Since then, the high-end watch manufacturing company‘s reputation for its cut-edge precision, absolute durability, sleek style and highly desirable designs has only enhanced.
Particularly so with its association with the celebrated film ‘James Bond’ and as time keeper for popular sports event, such as The Olympics, Omega has climbed up the ladder as the ultimate symbol of luxury and social class over the years.
The star of the exhibition is no doubt the Speedmaster Professional Moon Watch Apollo 11 Limited Edition, which comes in two designs.
The first one is in stainless steel and sterling silver; whereas the other is in platinum and 18 Ct yellow gold.
These extravagant watches are definitely the ones to watch out for this summer.
With sales in full bloom at the menswear, kids and lingerie department as well as the arrival of the latest abro and MCM bag collection in the house, there is really no reason to be elsewhere.
So let‘s take this one small step together to see that one big step for mankind on display at KaDeWe!
