Mango Chili began as a simple idea: to get diners to contribute free meals to those in need.

The Peak travels to Houston, Texas, for Omega’s gala dinner in the presence of three legendary astronauts as well as its celebrity brand ambassador, George Clooney, paying homage to the brand’s continual commitment to space exploration as well as to commemorate its legendary Speedmaster timepieces, which carry the distinction and unique legacy of being the first watch on the moon.
