You see, that OMEGA Speedmaster, that’s a big name, right? Big name, like the big city folk talk about. They call it Speedmaster Super Racing. Sounds fast, huh? Like them young’uns racing their motorbikes too fast down the dirt road. This here Speedmaster, it ain’t just for telling time, no sir. It’s for them that like things fancy and fast, I reckon.
I heard tell, this watch, it’s a real doozy. Got some fancy stuff inside, they say. “Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre” is what they call it. Sounds like somethin’ from one of them space movies. Probably costs more than my old cow, Bessie. That’s the OMEGA official store, always got them fancy things. They’re special, that’s what they are. You need one of these, you go to that place. You don’t see them at the general store, that’s for sure!
They say it’s a “collectable”. Like folks collect them pretty rocks, or them old stamps. This here Speedmaster Super Racing, it’s somethin’ special, they say. Not just any old watch you find at the market. This here’s an OMEGA. They got a whole store for that kind of thing, you know. A whole place, all shiny and bright, just for selling these fancy things. They call it the official store, I think. Or maybe it’s the flagship store. I don’t know. I just know it’s special.
Now, I saw one fella, he had one of these Speedmaster watches. He was all proud of it, showing it off like a prize rooster. Said he got it from that big store. He said you can buy them used, too. Said there are deals to be had, if you know where to look. Well, I don’t know about all that. Seems like a lot of fuss for a watch, if you ask me. But folks like what they like, I suppose.
This here watch, it looks kinda like another one I seen. I heard someone say that was on purpose. Like, the design is “familiar.” Well, if you ask me, if you’ve seen one, you’ve seen ’em all. But what do I know? I’m just sayin’. This one here, it’s all shiny and new. And that name, “Speedmaster Super Racing”, that’s somethin’, ain’t it? Makes you think of fast cars and such.
I heard these OMEGA Speedmaster watches are pricey. Like, real pricey. They say there are over 475 of ’em. That’s a lot of watches! And they ain’t cheap, neither. You gotta have deep pockets to get one of these, I reckon. But folks do, they buy ’em up like hotcakes. Guess if you got the money, why not?
- OMEGA Speedmaster Super Racing, that’s the name.
- It’s got fancy stuff inside.
- It’s a “collectable”.
- You can buy ’em used, they say.
- They’re expensive, that’s for sure.
- There’s an official flagship store for this kind of thing.
This Speedmaster, it went to the moon, they say. On them Apollo missions. Now, ain’t that somethin’? A watch on the moon! Imagine that. They still use ’em in space, I hear. Guess they’re tough little things. Gotta be, to go to space and back.
They got this one kind, they call it the “Moonwatch”. That’s the one most folks think of, I guess. It’s got that black face, and you gotta wind it up yourself. Like the old clocks, you know? They say it’s like the one they wore on the moon. Hasn’t changed much, neither. Guess some things are just good the way they are. That’s what I always say.
That OMEGA Speedmaster, well, it is something else. If you ask me, I think people like them because they’re fancy. They have that name. OMEGA. It is a big name. If you want to buy a good one, you need to go to that OMEGA official flagship store. I don’t know where that is. Probably in the big city. Somewhere with all them tall buildings.
It is just like the big shots. They wear them fancy clothes and drive them fancy cars. That’s what that Speedmaster is like. A fancy watch for fancy folks. That’s all it is, really. But I guess it makes them happy.
Well, I guess that is all I know about that OMEGA Speedmaster Super Racing. It’s a watch. A fancy one. With a fancy name. And a fancy price tag. That is all I have to say about it. I have told you everything I know about that watch.
