OMEGA SPEEDMASTER “SOYUZ–GEMINI” – Vintage – Ref. 140.022 ST – Stainless Steel – Limited Edition – 1976 – Mint Condition – Full Set

We are pleased to offer this remarkable vintage Omega Speedmaster “Soyuz–Gemini,” reference 140.022 ST — a highly sought-after limited-edition release celebrating the historic 1975 Apollo–Soyuz mission and the groundbreaking cooperation between American and Soviet space programs.

Crafted in stainless steel and preserved in truly mint condition, this example stands out not only for its historical significance but also for the completeness of its set, including original box, papers, and factory stickers — an exceptional rarity for a 1970s Speedmaster.

The classic 42mm Speedmaster case retains sharp lines, crisp transitions, and a beautifully preserved tachymeter bezel. The matte black dial with luminous indices, central chronograph hand, and tri-compax layout upholds the unmistakable DNA of the Moonwatch, while the Soyuz–Gemini edition brings added collector importance through its limited production and commemorative heritage.

Inside beats Omega’s legendary manual-wind caliber 861, celebrated for its robustness, reliability, and long-standing connection to NASA’s space program. This movement helped define the Speedmaster as one of the most historically important chronographs ever created.

This 1976 example remains extraordinarily well-preserved — a time capsule-quality piece for the collector who values originality, condition, and historical relevance in equal measure.

This Speedmaster “Soyuz–Gemini” is accompanied by:

- Original Omega yellow plastic presentation box

O- riginal warranty papers

- Two NASA Factory stickers

- Full Set

Produced in a highly limited run of only 400 pieces in 1975–1976, this reference is celebrated as one of the most beautiful and elusive models in the Speedmaster lineage. The present example remains entirely unworn and still retains the factory violet protective lacquer on the caseback—a true testament to its untouched condition.

This Speedmaster commemorates the Apollo–Soyuz Test Project (ASTP), the only joint U.S.–Soviet space mission conducted during the height of the Cold War. Launched in July 1975, this historic endeavor marked a rare and powerful moment of international cooperation, symbolizing a thaw in superpower relations. American astronauts and Soviet cosmonauts met in space, shook hands, and conducted joint operations aboard the docked spacecrafts. It was a mission of peace, diplomacy, and scientific collaboration—and the OMEGA Speedmaster was there to witness it.

A truly exceptional opportunity to acquire a mint-condition, limited-edition Speedmaster tied to one of humanity’s most significant spaceflight milestones — complete, preserved, and highly collectible.
