Speedy Tuesday - Cosmonaut's Anatoly Artsebarsky's 'Flown' Speedmaster Pro Hammered At CHF 47,000 Swiss FrancsIt's Speedy Tuesday! Remember we've found a real astronaut's Speedmaster Professional? One of the questions raised with the current owner and a few of readers had to do with the estimated worth of this kind of watch. We pretty much provide an answer since Cosmonaut's Anatoly Artsebarsky's 'Flown' Speedmaster Pro Hammered At CHF 47,000 Swiss Francs during the Antiquorum auction of November 10th. brietling watches We do not think they are exactly comparable because the watch we've found was one watch of 56 pieces that had been made (radial dial) and provided for NASA and also this cosmonaut's watch appears to be an ordinary issue Speedmaster Pro 145. pink rolex 022 with normal engraving. Well, at least it offers an idea. watches There exists only little known about cosmonaut Anatoly Artsebarsky and his awesome Speedmaster Professional. As outlined by Antiquorum, he's been wearing this watch during his flight for the Soyuz TM-12 (1991) together with Sergei Krikalev and Helen Sharman (British). Artsebarksy was a - then - 35 yr old commander and spent 144 days, Quarter of an hour and 21 seconds for the MIR Space Station. This all time, he wore this Omega Speedmaster Professional.He performed 6 space walks (Extra Vehicular Activities) in that flight. You probably know this, the Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch would be the only watch allowed around the wrist of any NASA astronaut while he (or she) performs EVAs. For cosmonauts or ESA astronauts for instance, this is a bit different.  Before this Speedmaster was hammered at CHF 47,000 Swiss Francs (CHF 58,750 Swiss Francs including buyer's premium) this watch belonged to a British fellow. Only little is known about Anatoly Artsebarsky. This Ukrainian cosmonaut was developed in 1957 and flew using one mission, the MIR EO-9. We have not found photos from him actually wearing this Speedmaster Professional on board (or during EVA). If you've found one, please inform us.Whatever the case, the previous owner had some so-called provenance with all the watch. A signed Omega box along with a letter written and signed by Artsebarsky proclaiming that this has been his actual Speedmaster Professional and that it chose him outside the MIR Space Station.What remains a bit of a mystery to all of us is how they got this Speedmaster watch. As you have seen around the picture below, this Speedmaster Pro reference 145.022 with serial number 48261214 has a normal caseback and is very much a normal issue Speedmaster. We ponder whether you purchased it , alone, fond of him from the Russian Federal Space Agency or got it in a different manner. You know, the NASA ordered specific Speedmaster replica watches that has a plain caseback to ensure these to engrave their unique numbers and descriptions with regard to their own administration. This does not need to be the truth using the Speedmaster for cosmonauts of course.Whatever the case, we're curious who bought this watch where it will appear the very next time.
