Okay, so, the other day, I decided to get this watch. Not just any watch, mind you, but this CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster 310.92.44.50.01.001, also known as the Apollo 8 “Dark Side of the Moon” – Rocket. Yeah, that’s a mouthful, I know.
First off, I started by looking around online. I mean, where else do you go these days to find anything? I typed “CopyOMEGA Speedmaster Apollo 8 Dark Side of the Moon” into the search bar, and bam, a ton of stuff popped up.
I spent a good few hours just browsing through pictures and some articles. I saw one that was talking about how it’s like that dark, bottomless night sky. And you know what? It really is.
- I read about the history of the Apollo 8 mission, which was pretty cool.
- Learned about the actual watch that went to the moon.
- Then I dove into the specs of this CopyOMEGA version.
After getting all hyped up about it, I decided to actually check my typing speed. I mean that’s important in my work you know. So, I used some typing website. Practiced for a bit, and figured it was time to get back to the watch hunt.
Making the Decision
Finally, I made up my mind. I just had to have this watch. It wasn’t just about telling time; it was like owning a piece of something bigger, you know? Plus, it looked damn good.
So, I placed the order. It was kind of a spontaneous thing, but I haven’t regretted it for a second. It’s not like when I binged all those shows on a streaming service, where I ended up feeling like I wasted a whole weekend. This was different.
After a few days, I received the watch. I unpacked it and strapped it on my wrist. It felt substantial, important. I looked at the intricate details and admired the craftsmanship. I spent a good amount of time just observing it under different lights. I noticed how the light played with the different textures. I’ve been wearing it ever since. It’s been a real conversation starter, too. And honestly, every time I look at it, I just think about that vast darkness of space. Pretty cool, huh?
This watch, it is a great thing in my life.
