The First and Only Watch Worn on the Moon. Mon, 26 October 2015 15:23 Go to previous message

Apologize if this had been discussed before: Recently acquired a moonwatch and love it. I noticed that on 3753.50 the caseback prints "The First and Only Watch Worn on the Moon", whereas on 3750.50 it says "The First Watch Worn on the Moon".

Two questions:
1) why is the writing different for two variations of the same model?
2) why Omega still prints "only" when it is beyond doubt that it was not the only watch worn on the moon?

Thanks,
Brent
