I own both a Speedmaster and a Lunar Pilot. I prefer the Lunar Pilot. I bought my Speedmaster Professional pre-owned for $375 in 1988. Bought my Lunar Pilot bracelet edition pre-owned in 2016 for $285 because it was too big for the owner. The Speedmaster needs a $1,400 service. Won't do that. The only feature that the Lunar Pilot lacks is the 12-hour timer register. But if I need that feature I'll wear my Casio. I prefer the original bead blasted model with the matte bracelet. Not a fan of the current polished center links. I do like the current font though. Overall a great watch. The size works for me and embodies what a tool watch should be...and it went to the moon!
This watch is just as advertized. It’s the perfect size with the perfect amount of bling. Love the history of it, and love the watch!
Beautiful watch. Easy to read. Extremely accurate. Looks great!
Process ☆☆☆☆☆ Packing/Shipping ☆☆☆☆☆ Product (uhhhhh) ☆☆☆☆☆ Service (haven't needed them yet) So, upon receiving my Lunar Pilot [LP] in its luxurious box, I finally laid hands on the timepiece. It does not disappoint. I have tiny wrist and large hands, so finding a watch to bridge that gap visually is usually a task... task accomplished by the LP. Not overbearing on the wrist, the lines and demure coloring accent a variety of wardrobe choices. With the addition of the black leather wrist-band in quick-change format, the choices for upscale events is even larger. Only time will tell (sorry) if the clock mechanisms are accurate over the years. As I've only had the LP for a couple of weeks, that part of the equation is still an unkown. BUT, if the insides are like the outsides, and the service, and the process, they should be high quality and run as smooth as silk for decades to comes.
