They retained the red aluminum heat shield, Zinc Oxide coated white dials, and the caliber 861. However, Petros mentioned that the Speedmaster's 42mm twisted case was adopted. This watch is now matte-finished thanks to micro-bead blasting.
The Speedmaster name is restored on the dial of Alaska II Prototype's Alaska II Prototype. However, this is the first time we have ever seen the implementation of the radial dial. The radial dials are essentially oriented in a radial direction, with their scales on sub dials.

it was confirmed that there were two types of bezels used in the batch. One had a tachymeter bezel while the other featured a graduated rotating bezel that rotated for 60 minutes. Petros says, "We are still investigating the location of all [Alaska II] prototypes and we can't give too much detail at this time on the finalized number." Based on the movement numbers we have, a figure lower than 15 seems like a great way to keep the excitement going between Speedmaster fans and informed collectors.

Phillips offered the watch for auction in November 2016, Geneva. It sold for CHF156.250. It was funny that a reader reached out to me shortly after the sale to ask how a watch he could find on eBay for only a few thousand managed to fetch six figures at auction.
It was easy to answer: In 2008 Franck Muller Replica Watches released a limited-edition Speedmaster in 1970 pieces. This Speedmaster was based on the Alaska II Prototype. This is what the gentleman reader found on eBay.Franck Muller fake Watches
Phillips' catalog contained nothing but the best.
The 2008 reissue featured the white dial from the Alaska II prototype but not the radial subdials. The hands were rocket-shaped for the chronominute and hours totalizer.Replica IWC Pilot
The outer anodized aluminum "thermal shield", which is similar to the prototype, was included with it. The watch was able to withstand temperatures ranging from -148oC up to +260oC in lunar and spatial atmospheres. The watch's movement was the 1861, a more recent model.
