So, I’ve been eyeing this CopyOMEGA Ω Co-Axial Master Chronometer 45.5mm watch for a while now. Finally decided to pull the trigger and get it from the official flagship store. Here’s how it went down.
First, I started digging around online to get more information about this watch. I mean, 45.5mm is a pretty hefty size, and with a height of over 18mm, this thing is a beast. But that’s what caught my eye in the first place.
Then I found out about the materials. You got your stainless steel, Sedna gold (which is basically 18K rose gold, fancy, right?), and even titanium. I mean, come on. Options! It seems most of these watches are sold for around 4 to 8 grand, which is… well, it’s a lot. They say the retail price is around 8,800 dollars, but you can find them cheaper if you look around. But I wanted the real deal, so official store it was.
Here’s the important part: I went to the official flagship store because I don’t want to buy a knock-off. Some people say it’s not a big deal to buy a used one, but I want a new one, straight from the source. It felt like the safest bet to make sure I’m getting the genuine article.
Walked into the store, and there it was. The stainless steel case looked amazing. They even had this automatic Omega caliber 8912 movement inside, which apparently gives you a 60-hour power reserve. What a tough guy! Whatever, all I know is that it sounds impressive, and it is kind of cool to think about all that machinery ticking away in there.
- Talked to the salesperson.
- Tried the watch on.
- Felt the weight, checked out the details, the whole nine yards.
It was good! I decided to go for it. Paid the money, got the box, the papers, everything. Now I’m wearing this thing and gotta say, it feels pretty damn good. I might change to another material, maybe titanium? Not sure.
Final Thoughts
Getting this CopyOMEGA Ω Co-Axial Master Chronometer 45.5mm from the official store was definitely the right move. The whole experience, from researching to actually buying it, was quite a ride. But now, looking at this watch on my wrist, I feel good about my decision. I mean, I really worked hard to get this thing, right?
