Noah Lyles, USA<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Noah Lyles, who is currently the fastest man in the world, won gold in the men’s 100-meter event, edging out Jamaica\u2019s Kishane Thompson by just .005 seconds. As he ran his ultimately victorious race, the American sprinter was spotted wearing the bold and practical Omega Speedmaster<\/a> Apollo 8 on his wrist.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Introduced in 2024, this edition of the Dark Side of the Moon pays homage to the 1968 Apollo 8 mission. It retains most of its 2018 predecessor\u2019s<\/span> attributes such as the black ceramic case and bezel, yellow accents, and partially skeletonized face that resembles the moon\u2019s surface. Other standout features include the <\/span>seconds hand<\/span> that mirrors Apollo 8\u2019s Saturn V rocket and the Caliber 3869, which promises a 50-hour power reserve. <\/span>Photo from niccoloy on Instagram<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
