Okay, so I’ve been wanting to get my hands on one of these CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Apollo 8 “Dark Side of the Moon” watches for a while now. I mean, who wouldn’t? It’s a slick piece, and it’s got that whole space vibe going on, which is pretty cool if you ask me.
So, I started digging around. I looked at a bunch of places online, tried to get a feel for what was out there, what the prices were like, you know, the usual. Ended up finding this one place that had them in stock. I don’t know if it was the “Official Flagship Store” or not, but it looked legit.
I finally pulled the trigger and ordered one. The wait was killing me, man. Every day felt like a week. Then, finally, the package showed up. I ripped that thing open like a kid on Christmas morning. There it was, all shiny and new, in its fancy box with all the paperwork and stuff. 2024 model, by the way – the latest and greatest.
I strapped that bad boy on my wrist, and let me tell you, it felt good. It’s a bigger watch, 44.25mm, but it fits just right. It’s got that black ceramic case, which is supposed to be a nod to NASA’s Apollo 8 mission, the dark side of the moon, and all that. Pretty neat, huh?
I’ve been wearing it around, showing it off a bit, not gonna lie. People notice it, ask about it. It’s definitely a conversation starter.
Here are some of the things I did to make sure I was getting the real deal:
- Checked the seller’s reputation.
- Made sure it came with the original box and papers.
- Looked closely at the details of the watch itself.
So, that’s my story. I got the watch, I love it, and I’m pretty sure it’s the real deal. It was a bit of a splurge, but hey, you only live once, right? If you’re thinking about getting one, I say go for it. Just do your homework, and make sure you’re buying from a reputable place. These watches seem to hold their value pretty well. It is from 2013. I don’t know.
I’ve been wearing it for a few days now. Feels good on the wrist. Got some weight to it, but not too heavy.
