Okay, so today I wanna talk about this watch I copied – the OMEGA Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch, the one with the open case back. Let me tell you, it’s been a journey.
First off, I found this watch online. It looked pretty slick, so I decided to give it a shot. I placed the order, and the waiting game began. You know how it is, waiting for a package to arrive, especially when it’s something you’re excited about. I kept checking the tracking information every few hours, even though I knew it wouldn’t magically make the watch appear any faster.
Finally, the day came! The package arrived, and I ripped it open like a kid on Christmas morning. And there it was, the OMEGA Speedmaster copy. It looked… okay. Not exactly like the pictures, but hey, what can you expect, right? I started wearing it around, trying to get a feel for it.
The first thing I noticed was the weight. It felt a little lighter than I expected. I mean, it’s supposed to be a professional-grade watch, you know? Then I started looking closer at the details. The chronograph buttons felt a bit mushy when I pressed them. They didn’t have that satisfying click that you get with the real deal. It made me feel a bit unsatisfied.
Next, I took a good look at the movement through the open case back. Now, I’m no watch expert, but even I could tell that it wasn’t the same as the original. It was much simpler, with fewer parts. And it wasn’t as nicely finished either. It looked a bit rough around the edges, to be honest. It is a totally different product from the picture.
- I tried to take some pictures, you know, to show it off a little.
- But the photos just didn’t do it justice. The watch looked much better in person than in the pictures.
- The thing is I used the cellphone to take pictures. I guess it is hard to do so.
- The color is not the same as the real one.
So, I wore the watch for a few weeks, trying to convince myself that I liked it. But in the end, I just couldn’t. It wasn’t the OMEGA Speedmaster experience I was hoping for. It was just a reminder that sometimes, you get what you pay for. I decided to put it in my drawer.
My Final Thoughts
Copying this watch was an interesting experience. It taught me a lot about what to look for in a watch and the importance of authenticity. Would I do it again? Probably not. But hey, at least I got a story out of it, right? And maybe this little write-up will help someone else out there make a better decision than I did. It’s all about learning from our mistakes, I guess.
