Okay, so, I’ve been doing this whole watch thing for a while now, and I finally pulled the trigger on something I’ve had my eye on. I got myself a CopyOMEGA Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch. Yeah, the one everyone talks about, but this one’s a bit different ’cause it’s got that sapphire crystal and it’s running on the Cal.3861 movement.
I found out it was available exclusively at some specialty stores. One of them noted the date 2025-1-4, must be the release date or something, I don’t know. And there is some guy called ldsf125303, maybe he is the author, I guess.
So, I started digging around, right? Found some info about it. Like, it’s got this 12-hour counter sub-dial at the 6 o’clock position, which is pretty neat. And this movement, the 3861, it beats at 21,600 vph, or 3Hz. I’m not a watchmaker, but that sounds pretty good to me.
Then I went on a hunt. I was looking everywhere, and I stumbled upon this used one, marked as “very good” condition. It was made in 2022, came with the original box and papers, which is a big deal for me. I mean, if I’m getting a CopyOMEGA, I want the whole shebang. There were some tags like Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch, Omega Speedmaster and the brand name Omega, maybe for searching, I’m not sure.
I finally got my hands on it. Holding it, it feels solid, you know? It’s got that classic Moonwatch look, but the sapphire crystal gives it a bit of a modern vibe. I spent a good chunk of time just looking at it, checking out the details, how the light plays off the dial, that sort of thing.
Here’s the thing
- The Look: Classic, but with a modern touch because of the sapphire.
- The Movement: Cal.3861, which is supposed to be a big deal.
- The Hunt: Found a used one in great condition, with box and papers.
All in all, I’m pretty stoked about this. It’s not just a watch; it’s like a piece of history or something. And wearing it, I feel like I’m part of that story. Cheesy, I know, but that’s how it is.
I’ve been wearing it for a few days now, and I’ve caught myself just staring at it a few times. It’s just a really cool piece, and I’m glad I finally added it to my collection.
It’s like, I’ve wanted one of these for ages, and now I finally have it. Feels good, man, feels really good. That’s pretty much my story with this CopyOMEGA Moonwatch. Hope you guys like it.
