Okay, so here’s the deal. I finally pulled the trigger and got myself a CopyOMEGA Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch. You know, the one with the sapphire crystal and the Caliber 3861 movement. I’ve been eyeing this beauty for a while now, and let me tell you, it was quite the experience getting my hands on it.
First off, I had to find a specialty store that actually carried it. Not every place has these, you know? So, I did my research, made a few calls, you know, the usual legwork.
Finally, I found a store that had it. I hopped in my car and drove over there, feeling like a kid on Christmas morning. Walking into the store, I could feel the anticipation building up. I spotted it right away, displayed under those fancy lights. It looked even better in person.
I asked to see it, and the guy at the counter, he carefully took it out of the case. He handed it to me, and I swear, I could feel my heart skip a beat. It felt substantial, you know? Not too heavy, but just right. I strapped it on my wrist and, man, it was like it was meant to be there.
This isn’t just any watch. We’re talking about the Caliber 3861 movement, a big step up from the older models. It’s got a 12-hour counter sub-dial at the 6 o’clock position. This thing is accurate, I am telling you. I mean, the movement beats at 21,600 vph. And the sapphire crystal? Forget about it. It’s tough and looks amazing, letting you see all the details of the dial.
Now, I knew this was going to be a bit of an investment. Some models, they go for like $5,595, or even as low as $3,995 used. I was prepared, did my homework about the price ranges, and I also found the production year 2022. It’s a good one. Even though they are used models, the box and papers are still original.
After trying it on, I just couldn’t say no. I had to have it. So, I went through with the purchase. And let me tell you, it was worth every penny. I walked out of that store feeling like a million bucks, with this iconic timepiece on my wrist.
I’ve been wearing it every day since, and it’s just a joy to have. It’s not just a watch; it’s a piece of history, a conversation starter, and a damn good looking accessory. I’ve got the box and papers too, all safe and sound.
So, yeah, that’s my story of getting the CopyOMEGA Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch. It was a bit of an adventure, but totally worth it in the end. If you’re thinking about getting one, do it. You won’t regret it.
