You know, I heard some folks talkin’ ’bout that CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Date thing. Sounds fancy, huh? I ain’t never had one of them fancy watches, but I heard some things. This one, it got a date on it. Some people, they like that. Me? I just look at the sun. But if you want a date on your watch, this one got it.
This Speedmaster, they say it’s good for them who got small wrists. My grandson, he got skinny little wrists. Maybe this watch is good for him. And, they say it’s cheaper than that big one, that 42mm one. Lord knows, them watches cost a fortune. This one, it’s a little easier on the pocketbook, I reckon.
And them numbers, them serial numbers. They say you gotta check them. Make sure they’re there, all proper-like. Each one’s different, like them cows out back. Each one got its own markings. You gotta make sure it’s a real one, not some fake thing some fella’s tryin’ to sell ya. They say you can tell by lookin’ at the inside, the movement they call it. Real ones, they’re mechanical. Like my old coffee grinder. Fake ones, they just there for show, like them plastic flowers Martha puts on her table.
- Check the numbers, they gotta be there.
- Look inside, make sure it’s a real one.
- If you buy a new one you can ask for a discount.
They say these CopyOMEGA Speedmaster watches, they got different kinds. This one, it’s a “Racing” one. Got some fancy name, Caliber 9900. Whatever that means. They say it’s “self-winding” too. Sounds like magic to me. No need to wind it up like my old alarm clock. And they say it’s a “Chronometer”. Sounds important, but I don’t know what it is. Some fancy test, I guess. It is certified by some folks called METAS.
I heard some of them Speedmaster watches, they went to the moon! Can you believe that? This one, I don’t think it went to the moon. But it looks like the one that did. They call it the “Moonwatch”. It’s got that black face, and you gotta wind it yourself. Just like the old days. They say it ain’t changed much since them old times. This Moonwatch is a classic Speedmaster.
Now, some folks, they collect these watches. Like how I collect them mason jars. They say the old ones, they’re worth a lot of money. And some special ones, they call them “limited editions”. Like they only made a few of ’em. Them’s the ones that get real expensive, I hear. Them limited editions can get more valuable as time passes by.
And water! Don’t you go swimmin’ with these watches. Well, this Moonwatch one, they say it can handle a little water. 50 meters, they say. I don’t know how deep that is, but don’t go divin’ for pearls with it. You can wear it when you wash your hands, I reckon. Just don’t drop it in the well!
They say this CopyOMEGA Speedmaster, it’s got a vintage look. That means it looks old, even if it’s new. Like my old truck. It’s new, but it looks like it’s been around the block a few times. Some folks like that. They say it’s got “aesthetic”. That’s a fancy word for “it looks good”.
I’ll tell you what to do. Buy a new one, they give you a discount. A big one even. You should ask about it! I heard this. Then you have new and don’t pay full price. Then you are smart, you see.
If you want to buy one, look at the 38 model. It is like the reduced but a bit thicker. It’s good if you have smaller wrists. The Speedmaster Professional keeps it value well, especially if it is vintage or limited edition.
You gotta watch out for them fake ones. They got these little holes, jewel holes they call ’em. In the real ones, they got somethin’ in ’em. In the fake ones, they’re empty. And the balance bridge, that’s another thing. Real ones, they only got one arm. Fake ones, they got two. Like a scarecrow with two arms. No good.
So, that’s what I heard ’bout that CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Date watch. Seems like a good watch, if you got the money. Just make sure you get a real one, and don’t drop it in the well. And remember what the old folks always say: “If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.”
I don’t know much about how to determine the date for Speedmaster watches. I heard that you can check the serial number to know about the date.
