Aren't there two versions, the "Last man on the moon" and the "first watch on the moon"?

I like the medalion on the Last Man watch.

Is the second one yours?

Don't have one currently but I've had several. What information, if any, are you looking for?

If its the watch with the day/month display at the 12 and the date on the outer track indicated with a pointer that would not be considered a "moon" watch. It's in the Speedmaster family and the first Omega I ever owned. In fact any Speedmaster with a date,day, or month display is not a "moon" watch .

PHC1
You are right. The watch in your second pic is the model 3570.50. It has a Hesalite crystal with a very unique feature. On the inside of the crystal near the center is the Omega symbol stamped into the crystal. It's very hard to see.

The watch carries with it a lot of history and the looks of it are iconic.
