So, I finally decided to get myself a CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch, the one with the open case back. I’ve always been a watch guy, and this one, it’s just classic, you know?
First, I did a bunch of research. I mean, you gotta be careful with these things. There are a lot of not-so-great copies out there. I read a ton of reviews and forum posts, trying to figure out the best place to buy from and what to look for. It was a bit of a headache, to be honest, but I wanted to make sure I was getting a good one.
After weeks of digging, I decided to pull the trigger and order it. It was exciting, like waiting for Christmas morning when you were a kid. The wait for it to arrive felt like forever.
When the package finally showed up, I ripped it open like a madman. And there it was, in all its glory. It looked pretty darn good, I gotta say. The weight felt right, the details seemed spot on, and that open case back? Man, it’s mesmerizing. You can see all the little gears and springs working together, it’s like a tiny city in there.
But the real test was getting that open case back on. I had read that it could be a bit tricky, and boy, were they right. I grabbed my tools, took a deep breath, and got to work. It was fiddly, I’m not gonna lie. Those little screws are tiny, and you gotta be super careful not to scratch anything. It took me a good hour, maybe more, but I finally got it on there, nice and snug.
- First step: Researched the heck out of it.
- Next: Ordered the watch.
- Then: Waited (im)patiently for it to arrive.
- After that: Unboxed it and admired it.
- Finally: Installed the open case back (with a bit of a struggle).
It’s been a few weeks now, and I’ve been wearing it pretty much every day. It’s comfortable, it looks great, and I love showing off that transparent case back to anyone who’s interested. I’ve gotten a few compliments on it, too, which is always nice.
All in all, I’m pretty happy with my purchase. It’s a cool watch with a bit of history, and it didn’t break the bank. It’s a conversation starter for sure.
If you’re thinking about getting one of these CopyOMEGA Speedmasters with an open case back, I’d say go for it. Just make sure you do your research, be patient with the installation, and enjoy the view.
