I saw this watch online, the CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Chronoscope, they call it a “classic style.” It caught my eye, looked pretty sharp in the pictures, so I decided to check it out.
First thing, I looked up this watch. Turns out, this OMEGA Speedmaster has been around since 1957, a real old-timer. They say it’s got all these fancy mechanisms inside, different movements over the years. Sounds complicated, but I just liked how it looked.
So, I found a place that sells these copycat watches. Not the real deal, mind you, but a good imitation. They told me about the watch, how it’s got this big round face, 43mm, they said. And it’s got these neat curves on the sides. Looks good, feels solid on my wrist.
This watch, it’s not just for telling time. It’s got these extra dials and buttons, makes it a “chronograph.” I messed around with the buttons a bit. The top one, at two o’clock, that starts and stops the second hand. The bottom one, at four o’clock, that resets it. Pretty cool, I guess.
- Start/Stop: Press the top pusher (at two o’clock).
- Reset: Press the bottom pusher (at four o’clock).
A Little History
I did a little reading about these Speedmaster watches. Apparently, they’re a big deal. Something about astronauts and the moon landing. Seems like folks really like collecting these things. They even say some of the old ones are worth a lot of money now. Who knew?
This copycat version, it’s not going to make me rich. But it looks good, and it’s fun to play with the chronograph thing. Plus, I learned a little something about the history of these watches. Not bad for a copycat.
I’ve been wearing it for a few weeks now. It keeps time just fine. And you know what? I like the way it looks on my wrist. It’s a bit of a conversation starter, too. People ask me about it, and I tell them, “Yeah, it’s a CopyOMEGA Speedmaster Chronoscope, classic style.” Makes me feel a little fancy, even though it’s just a copy.
This CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Chronoscope classic style, it ain’t the real deal, but it is a decent watch. And for the price, I can’t complain. All I have to do is press a few buttons, and bam, I’m timing something. I feel like one of them astronaut fellas.
I read somewhere that some of these fancy watches, the real OMEGA ones, can be worth a lot of money. Like, a real investment. This copy, probably not so much. But hey, it looks the part, and that’s good enough for me.
All in all, I am happy with this watch. It is a good-looking watch. It’s got some history behind it, even if it’s just a copy. And it’s got those cool buttons and dials that make me feel like I know what I am doing, even if I really do not. This CopyOMEGA Speedmaster Chronoscope, classic style, it is a winner in my book.
