Alright, so, I wanted to get my hands on an OMEGA Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch, the one with the see-through back. You know, the kind where you can see all the little gears and stuff moving around. Pretty cool, right?
First, I started poking around online to get a feel for the prices and what versions were out there. I spent a good few hours on this. I browsed through a bunch of forums and online shops.
Next, I hit up some local stores that sell watches. I figured it’d be good to see the Moonwatch in person, try it on, and get a feel for it. Plus, I wanted to chat with the folks at the store to see if they had any tips or knew of any deals. I found one at a decent price, but I still feel like I can find a better deal.
- Tried on a few different Speedmasters.
- Talked to a couple of store clerks about the watch.
- Didn’t buy anything yet – wanted to see what else was out there.
After that, I kept digging online. I was mainly looking for people selling their used watches. Maybe someone got tired of theirs or needed the cash. I checked out a few websites, and then I remembered my old friend, Tom.
Tom was a watch guy, so I gave him a call. He told me he got a friend who is selling one! Bingo!
I met up with Tom’s friend, and he showed me the watch. It was in good shape, and he was asking for a reasonable price. We chatted for a bit, and I made the purchase! Now I’m showing it off!
Finally Got It!
So, yeah, that’s how I ended up with my OMEGA Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch. It took a bit of time and effort, but it was totally worth it. I love this watch!
