Alright, so I finally got my hands on that CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch, the one with the open case back. I’ve been eyeing this piece for a while now, and let me tell you, the anticipation was killing me. Let me walk you through the whole thing, from start to finish.
First off, I spent ages, and I mean ages, browsing online, trying to find the best place to buy it. You see tons of these copy watches and all claim that they are the best, but actually, you don’t know what they are until you get them. Finally, I decided to order one to try.
The wait for the delivery was agonizing, every day felt like a year. But then, the glorious day arrived. The package was discreet, nothing flashy, which is good. Opening it up was like Christmas morning. The watch was nestled in a pretty standard box, nothing too fancy, but hey, it’s the watch that matters, right?
Lifting it out, the first thing that struck me was the weight. It felt substantial, just like the real deal, they say. This one’s got a 42mm case, which is a good size for my wrist, and it’s about 13mm thick. The details are pretty spot-on, with the indexes and hands coated in what looks like Super-LumiNova, which is nice touch for when it is dark.
Now, the fun part, turning it over to check out that open case back. Man, it’s a beauty! You can see all the intricate details and that Co-Axial escapement thingy they’re always talking about. I’m not an expert of this, but it’s cool to see the movement ticking away.
I tried opening the case back, but, oh boy, that was a mistake. I ended up with a nasty gouge on it. Note to self, and to anyone else, don’t try to open it unless you know what you’re doing. I learned that the hard way. Definitely need a specific tool, I just used the screwdriver and it totally not working.
- The Search: Spent forever online looking for a good copy.
- The Wait: Ordered it and waited impatiently.
- The Arrival: Finally got it, discreet packaging.
- First Impressions: Good weight, 42mm case, 13mm thick, Super-LumiNova details.
- Open Case Back: Looks amazing, can see the movement.
- Case Back Disaster: Tried to open it, got a gouge.
- Overall: Pretty happy, despite the case back issue.
Overall, I’m pretty stoked with this purchase. It looks great, feels good on the wrist, and the open case back is a real treat, even with that gouge I made. I found some forums talking about how hard it is to open these things, and some people even damaged theirs, so I’m not alone here, haha. I’m going to do some more research on how to properly open the case back without damaging it. Maybe I’ll find a professional to help me out. But for now, I’m just going to enjoy wearing it. This one is a keeper, well, I hope.
