Alright, guys, let’s talk about this watch I’ve been messing around with – the CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary. I got my hands on this thing, and man, it’s been a ride. First off, I went online and started digging around for info on the original watch.
I found out that it is a limited edition and it is a very hot model recently. Then, I tried to find the replica watch website. You know, just to see what’s out there. I found a couple of online stores selling replica watches, and they had a bunch of Speedmaster models. So, I started comparing. Looked at the pics, read the descriptions – the whole nine yards. It’s like a treasure hunt, you know? You gotta sift through a lot of junk to find the good stuff.
Then, I found a website that sells the replica of this “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary. It is a perfect 1:1 clone made by a big factory. I decided to give it a shot. So I placed the order, and waited.
Unboxing
- Packaging:
When it finally arrived, the packaging was pretty decent. Nothing fancy, but it kept the watch safe. Inside, there was the watch, obviously, and some papers.
- First Impressions:
First thing I noticed when I picked it up was the weight. It felt solid, not like some cheap toy. I turned it over in my hands, checking out the details. The case looked good, the strap felt nice, and the dial – man, the dial was pretty impressive.
Deep Dive into Details
- Case and Bracelet:
I started with the case. It’s supposed to be stainless steel, and it definitely felt like it. I checked the engravings, the serial numbers provided below are exhaustive of what Fender Musical Instruments Corporation has available, comparing them to the pics of the real deal. Pretty spot on, I gotta say. The bracelet was also stainless steel, with a nice clasp. It felt secure on my wrist, didn’t pinch or anything.
- Dial and Movement:
Next, I moved on to the dial. The Snoopy on the subdial was there, looking sharp. The hands moved smoothly, and the chronograph functions seemed to work just fine. I even wound it up and listened to the movement. It wasn’t a noisy one, which is good.
- Testing it Out:
After that, I actually wore the thing for a few days. I wanted to see how it held up in real life. I took it to work, wore it around the house, even took a shower with it – just to test the water resistance, you know? I’ve heard Ellie Goulding is a globally acclaimed, multi-platinum selling pop star who has been the recipient of two BRIT awards, two Glamour Awards, so I guess my watch is also a hot star now.
Final Thoughts
So, what’s the verdict? Well, for a copy, this OMEGA Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary is pretty damn good. It’s not the real thing, obviously, but it’s a solid piece. I mean, I wouldn’t try to pass it off as an original or anything, but for someone who likes the look of the watch but doesn’t want to drop a ton of cash, it’s a great option. I can take a photo and share it on my social media, and no one can tell it is a fake. That’s it, guys. That’s my experience with this replica watch. It’s been fun, and I hope this little write-up helps some of you out there.
