Today, we introduce to you our second collaboration, which is based on the Apollo 15 mission. However, you don’t need a perfect replica Omega Speedmaster Apollo 15 limited-edition watch. This strap will fit any Moonwatch with a 20mm lug spacing. We also took your feedback on the quick-release pins seriously and asked REM to make it happen for this and the upcoming Speedmaster straps for 2023. As we wrote for our January release, there will be a Fratello × REM strap for the cheap fake Omega Speedmaster every month this year. This will include (later on) a 19mm version for the straight-lug models.
NASA’s Apollo 15 mission (July 26th – August 7th, 1971) was the first to make use of the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) on the surface of the Moon. Astronauts Dave Scott (who we interviewed here), Al Worden (command module pilot), and James Irwin were the Apollo 15 crew and put the first lunar rover on the Moon. The lunar rover was folded and stored in the Apollo Lunar Module (pictured on the first strap we introduced). NASA brought three rovers to the Moon in total during the Apollo 15, 16, and 17 missions.
The organic leather strap wears comfortably on the wrist, and we think the black and white colors are neutral enough to fit most 1:1 replica Omega Speedmaster Professional variations. We asked the folks at REM if they could also include quick-release pins on this and upcoming straps.
Although they never did before, they got the right tooling for this, and all straps will now come with quick-release pins. If you, like me, are not a fan of these quick-release pins, you can easily take them out and replace them with normal 20mm spring bars.
Every strap has “Fratello × REM Straps” and “February 2023” engraved in the lining. As mentioned, together with REM Straps, we will introduce a new leather strap for an AAA fake Omega Speedmaster every month this year.
Therefore, you can expect to see a strap made for the Snoopy, the Speedy Tuesday models, the FOiS, and so on. The Lunar Rover strap is available in one length only and exclusively as a 20mm strap. For the smaller high quality fake Omega Speedmaster models, such as the FOis and Calibre 321, we will use a 19mm size.
This second Fratello × REM Strap for the Speedmaster is now available in our shop. Each month, we will have a new design with new colors. Though we’ll design these with specific Omega Speedmasters fake for sale in mind, the straps might also work on other models as well.
