Alright, let’s talk about this here watch, the CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Apollo 8 “Dark Side of the Moon”. Folks call it a special watch, ya hear? So let’s see what all the fuss is about. Now, I ain’t no fancy watch expert, you know? But I can tell ya what I see and what I think.
First off, they say this watch is big. Yeah, it’s pretty big alright, like one of them big ol’ cookies we used to bake back in the day. But it ain’t heavy like a brick, no sir. It feels… sturdy, like it can take a bump or two. They say it’s made of some fancy stuff, zirconium oxide ceramic, they call it. Sounds like somethin’ you’d find on a spaceship, not on a watch, but hey, what do I know?
This here watch, it’s all black, like the night sky out in the country, pitch black. They call it “Dark Side of the Moon”, which sounds kinda spooky if you ask me. But it’s also kinda purdy, in its own way. The face, it’s got all sorts of little dials and numbers and hands. I can barely see ‘em without my glasses, gotta be honest. But them young folks, they seem to like all that fancy stuff.
- It’s big, but not too heavy.
- It’s black, like the night sky.
- It’s got lots of dials and numbers.
Now, they tell me this watch is special because it’s got somethin’ to do with the moon, and some fellas who went up there a long time ago. Apollo 8, they call it. Seems like a big deal to some folks. They say this watch is like a piece of history, a piece of the moon, even. Well, I ain’t never been to the moon, but I reckon it musta been somethin’ special for them fellas who went.
This watch, the CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Apollo 8, it ain’t just tellin’ you the time, no sir. It’s tellin’ you a story, they say. A story about goin’ to the moon, about doin’ somethin’ nobody ever done before. It’s about bravery, and smarts, and maybe a little bit of craziness, too. Who in their right mind wants to go to the moon, anyway? But I guess that’s what makes it special, ya know?
I heard some folks buy these watches and keep ‘em, like they’re some kinda treasure. And then they sell ‘em later on for more money than they paid in the first place. Sounds like a good deal, I guess, but I’d rather put my money in a good piece of land, somethin’ you can touch and feel, somethin’ that’ll grow somethin’. But to each their own, I always say.
The Speedmaster “Dark Side of the Moon” Apollo 8, it’s more than just a watch. It’s a… a conversation starter, I guess. People see it on your wrist, and they ask you about it. And then you get to tell ‘em the story, about the moon, and Apollo 8, and all that jazz. It’s like wearin’ a piece of history, right there on your arm.
This Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch, it’s got this here bezel, the ring around the face, they call it. And it’s got numbers on it, like a ruler or somethin’. I guess you can use it to measure things, or maybe figure out how fast you’re goin’. I don’t know, seems complicated to me. I just look at the big hand and the little hand, that’s all I need.
They also say that this here watch is a commemoration of the original Speedmaster Professional. Which means it’s kinda like a special edition, a way of rememberin’ the old watches. Like lookin’ at an old photograph, I guess. It reminds you of the past, of the good ol’ days, and all that.
The watch case is 44 mm, they say. That’s… I don’t know how big that is, but it sounds big. And it’s thick too, 13.8 mm. It feels solid, like it’ll last a long time. Which is good, I reckon, ‘cause if you’re gonna spend your hard-earned money on somethin’, you want it to last. You don’t want it breakin’ on ya after a few months.
So, there you have it. That’s what I think about this here CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Apollo 8 “Dark Side of the Moon” watch. It’s big, it’s black, it’s got a lot of fancy stuff on it, and it’s got a story to tell. It ain’t my kinda thing, to be honest, but I can see why folks like it. It’s a piece of history, they say. And who doesn’t like a good story, right?
