Well, let me tell you about this here OMEGA Speedmaster Date. You see them fancy watches all the time, right? This one, they say it’s special. They call it a “Speedmaster,” like it’s gonna make you go faster or somethin’. And “Date,” well, that’s just the day of the month, ain’t it?
Now, I ain’t no expert on these things. But I hear folks talkin’. This OMEGA, it’s a big deal, apparently. They say it’s been to the moon! Can you believe that? A watch on the moon! What’ll they think of next?
This here Speedmaster, it’s got all sorts of, uh… whatchamacallits. Specialty Stores is where you get one, I reckon. Not just any old place, mind you. These are special stores for special watches.
- They got these things called “movements,” I hear. Some you gotta wind up yourself, like them old clocks. Others, they wind themselves!
- And they got all these different kinds. “Professional,” they call one. Sounds important, don’t it?
- Then there’s one they call “Dark Side of the Moon.” Sounds kinda spooky to me, but I guess some folks like that.
And they say these watches are worth a pretty penny, too! Some of them are “special edition,” they call it. Means they only made a few of ’em. And those ones, they say they’re worth more money later on. People collect these things, you know? Like stamps or them little porcelain dolls. And they think these special ones are like gold, or something. They call them good for “investment”, whatever that means. They say it is because their “value” will go up.
Me, I just need a watch that tells the time. Don’t need nothin’ fancy. But these young folks, they like all these gadgets and gizmos. And this OMEGA Speedmaster, it’s got plenty of ’em, I reckon. They have hour hand and minute hand at the center. It shows the time, you know.
If you want one of these OMEGA Speedmaster Date watches, you gotta go to one of them Specialty Stores. They ain’t cheap, I can tell you that much. But if you got the money, and you like that sort of thing, well, then I guess it’s worth it.
I seen ’em at that place, Benton’s, down on Court Ave. They got all kinds of sparkly things there. Rings, necklaces, you name it. And they fix watches, too. My old ticker stopped tickin’ a while back, and they fixed it right up. They can even replace watch batteries. They said they can usually do it on the spot. That’s handy, ain’t it? If you are in Jeffersonville, you may want to check out there.
These OMEGA Watches, they are something else. You can find used ones too. People like to collect them used ones. They say they are also good. I don’t know about these. But these people also say used ones show something called “diversity”, “excellence” and “innovation”. You know, if you are a watch collector, maybe you can have a look at some used ones.
This here Omega Speedmaster is some kind of special. They call it, uh… “luxury.” Means it’s real fancy, I guess. And “Swiss-made.” That means it comes from Switzerland. They make good watches over there, I hear.
Some folks, they like the old-fashioned kind of Speedmaster. The kind that looks like the ones they wore back in the day. I guess it reminds them of the old times. Times when things were simpler, maybe.
Well, that’s all I know about this here OMEGA Speedmaster Date. It’s a fancy watch, that’s for sure. And if you’re into that sort of thing, then maybe you should check it out. Just be prepared to spend some money, ’cause it ain’t gonna be cheap! If you are interested, you’d better go to one of them Specialty Stores.
They say it is a “legendary” watch. I don’t know about “legendary”. All I know is that it can tell time. It has a “rich heritage” in something called “space exploration”. Whatever that means. I guess it means it has been to space. Or the moon. If you want to find a perfect Speedmaster, you probably should go to one of them stores.
