It looks like Omega will be releasing five 50th anniversary limited editions of the Speedmaster. One is powered by the 1861, and the rest have a 3201 movement with a column wheel mechanism and the co-ax escapement. Here are links to the models on Omega's website:

I wish that Omega was releasing a version with the original 321 movement, but maybe Lemania doesn't have the capability to make it anymore. Or maybe Omega doesn't want to open a can of worms about what movement was truly worn on the moon! ;-)
I won't be buying any of the limited editions. I'm still as happy as a clam wearing my Sapphire Sandwich.
