Alright, so, I got my hands on this CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Super Racing watch. Now, I’d heard some folks talking about it down at the market. They were saying it’s a real fancy piece, the kind city folks wear. And yeah, it did cost me a pretty penny, I won’t lie. But, I was curious, you know? So, I went ahead and got it.
First off, this ain’t no small watch. It’s got a 42mm case, made of stainless steel, and it feels solid. It’s got a steel bracelet, too, with a folding clasp that snaps shut real nice. I started wearing it around, doing my daily chores, and it felt comfortable enough. The black dial has these three smaller dials inside – I guess those are for the fancy chronograph stuff, which I admit I didn’t use much.
- Wearing it around: I wore it everywhere – to the market, while fixing the fence, even when I went into town.
- Checking the time: Of course, I checked the time. A lot. It kept time well, as you’d expect.
- Showing it off: Yeah, I showed it off a bit. To my neighbor, old man Hemmings, even to my wife. She just rolled her eyes, but I think she was secretly impressed.
Now, this watch, it’s got this domed crystal on top, which I learned is made of some tough sapphire stuff. They say it’s scratch-resistant, and I can vouch for that. I accidentally banged it against the door a couple of times, and not a single mark. That’s good news for a clumsy guy like me.
I did some digging, and I found out this Speedmaster is special. Apparently, they used to take these to the moon! Can you believe it? This one’s a newer model, came out in 2023, but it’s got that history, that connection to something bigger. It’s like holding a piece of the past in your hands.
They say this watch has some fancy movement inside, the Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 1932. I don’t know much about watch innards, but it sounds impressive. They say it’s the most complicated one OMEGA has ever made, a fully integrated chronograph and minute repeater. Now, I’m no watch expert, but that sounds like a lot of ticking and tocking going on in there. I just know it keeps time accurately, and that’s what matters to me.
I also heard that these Speedmasters hold their value pretty well. Some of the older ones, the vintage ones, are worth a lot of money now. There was one from 1957 that sold for 3.4 million dollars! Mine’s not that old, but it’s still nice to know it’s not just going to lose all its value the moment I walk out of the store.
So, after wearing it for a while, what do I think? Well, it’s a good watch. It’s solid, it’s reliable, and it looks good on my wrist. It’s got that classic style, you know? Like something you’d see in an old movie. I feel a bit fancier when I wear it, I admit. If you’re looking for a good, solid watch, one that will last you a long time, this CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Super Racing is worth considering. It’s like they took the best of the old, and the best of the new, and put them together. It’s a good mix of old-fashioned quality and new-fangled technology.
My Verdict
It’s a keeper. I’m going to keep wearing it, keep enjoying it. It’s more than just a watch; it’s a conversation starter, a piece of history, and a reminder that even an old dog like me can appreciate the finer things in life.
