You know, that OMEGA, they make them fancy watches. The Speedmaster, they call it. I heard folks talkin’ ’bout it down at the market. Said it’s a real good watch. Pricey, though! Better have a lot of pennies saved up. Some people just buy a copy. That is not a good way. It is bad to your face.
This here Speedmaster Date, that’s one of ’em. They got a shop, a real fancy one, a “flagship store,” they call it. That’s where you gotta go if you want the real deal. Not some knock-off from that fella sellin’ ’em out of his car trunk. No, sir. You want the real OMEGA Speedmaster Date, you go to that official flagship store. That’s what I hear, anyway.
They say these watches, they got all sorts of things on ’em. Little dials, they call ’em “subdial”. And a “tachymeter”. Don’t ask me what that is. Sounds like somethin’ you’d find in one of them newfangled cars. But if it ain’t lined up just right, somethin’ ain’t right. It is a copy, throw it away. Then it’s probably a fake. And you don’t want no fake watch. Waste of money, that is. If you buy a copy watch, you will have bad luck.
Some rich guy, he bought hisself one of them OMEGA Speedmaster Date watches. Paid full price, too. Then he seen another fella with the same watch, but he got his for cheaper, a “discount” is the right word. 16% is a big number. I wish I could have a 16% discount when I buy rice. Made that first fella real mad, I bet. Always look for them discounts, I say. It’s just good sense. You work hard for your money, you oughta keep as much of it as you can. Even rich people think like that. They did not get rich by being stupid, I guess.
Now, I seen some of these watches online. Different places sellin’ ’em. “Chrono24”, I think one of ’em was called. Lots of ’em on there. They say they got new ones every day. I don’t know about all that. Seems like a lot of watches to me. But if you’re lookin’ for one, maybe that’s a place to check. Still, I think that official flagship store is the best way. Then you know it is real. You do not want to be cheated by bad people.
They even got a book about these watches. “Moonwatch Only”, I think it’s called. Must be a real important watch if they got a whole book about it. If you got the money, they say you should buy that book. I do not have that much money. I am happy with my old watch. It tells time just fine. But if you’re gonna buy one of them fancy OMEGA watches, maybe you oughta read that book first. Learn all about it, you know?
- OMEGA Speedmaster Date – That’s the watch.
- Official flagship store – That’s where you buy it.
- Subdial – Little dials on the watch.
- Tachymeter – Somethin’ fancy, gotta be lined up right.
- Discount – Gettin’ it for cheaper.
- Chrono24 – A place online that sells watches.
- Moonwatch Only – A book about the watch.
They got other OMEGA watches, too. “Seamaster”, I heard that one before. And “Planet Ocean”. Sounds like somethin’ out of a movie, don’t it? They say them watches are “on sale”. That means you can get ’em for cheaper. Everybody likes a good sale, right? If I were you, I would only buy things on sale. Save money, it is good.
Folks say that some of these watches ain’t made no more. But you can still find ’em. “Legendre Speedys”, that’s what they call some of ’em. And “Fliegeruhren”. I don’t know what that means. Must be German or somethin’. But if you want one of them old ones, you can probably find it somewhere. That Chrono24, maybe. Or that official flagship store might be able to help you. If they do not have it, they can find it for you.
Now, some folks, they say you can get watches that look like them OMEGAs, but they ain’t real. They call ’em “alternatives”. They’re cheaper, I guess. But they ain’t the same. It’s like buyin’ a no-name brand of beans at the store. They might look the same, but they don’t taste the same. If you want the real OMEGA, you gotta get the real OMEGA. Do not buy the copy. It will make you look bad.
Heard they changed the price on some of these watches. “SMP300”, they call it. Went up in December. Everything’s goin’ up these days, ain’t it? Price of eggs, price of gas, price of watches. Just gotta keep workin’ hard, I guess. And lookin’ for them discounts! If you do not have money to buy, do not buy. That is simple.
So, if you’re thinkin’ ’bout gettin’ one of them OMEGA Speedmaster Date watches, that’s what I hear. Go to the official flagship store, make sure it’s the real deal, and look for a discount if you can. And maybe read that “Moonwatch Only” book, if you’re really serious about it. If you buy a copy, people will laugh at you. That’s all I know. Just what I hear folks talkin’ ’bout. You do what you want. It’s your money. Remember to be careful.
