Well, let me tell ya ’bout this here watch, the CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster DateQuote. Folks say it’s a real fancy one, but I just see a watch, ya know?
First Off, What Is It?
It’s a Speedmaster, they say. Sounds fast, like a car or somethin’. But it ain’t no car, it just tells ya the time, and the date too. Some folks, they like that date thing. Me? I just look at the calendar on the wall, but hey, to each their own, I always say.
Now, these watches, the Speedmasters, they ain’t cheap. I heard tell they cost a pretty penny, some even thousands of dollars! Can ya believe that? Four thousand dollars for a watch! That’s more than my old mule cost, and he could plow a field! Some go for as low as five hundred, but those ain’t the real good ones, I reckon.
Why are they so expensive? Well, folks say it’s ‘cause they’re rare, or special edition, or some such thing. They make a few, and then they stop, so if ya want one later, ya gotta pay more. It’s like them fancy plates my grandma used to have, only for special occasions. Cept these plates tell time, I guess.
- What makes it tick? I dunno, springs and gears and stuff. It’s got them little hands that go ‘round and ‘round. One for the hours, one for the minutes, and one that moves real fast for the seconds. And then there’s another one for the date. That’s a lot of hands for one watch, if ya ask me.
- Is it any good? Well, folks who know about these things say it’s real reliable. That means it keeps on tickin’ without breakin’ down all the time. And that’s important, ya know? You don’t want a watch that quits on ya when you need it most.
- Should ya buy one? Well, that depends. If ya got money to burn, and ya like fancy things, then go ahead. But if you’re like me, and ya just need somethin’ to tell ya the time, there’s plenty of cheaper watches out there. I got mine at the feed store for ten bucks, and it works just fine.
This here CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster DateQuote, they say it’s got a black bezel. That’s the ring around the face, ya know? And it’s got numbers on it, for countin’ somethin’ fast, I guess. They call it a “tachymetric scale”, but that just sounds like fancy talk to me. It’s probably for them city folks who drive fast cars. Me, I just drive my old truck to town and back, so I ain’t got no need for that.
People are always lookin’ for the best prices on these watches. I hear there’s this place online, “*”, where they sell a bunch of ‘em. They got hundreds of thousands of watches, can ya imagine? Must be a big store, bigger than the Walmart even. And they got all kinds of Speedmasters, from the cheap ones to the real expensive ones. I even heard some folks sell their used ones there too, so maybe you can get a deal if you’re lucky. But me, I wouldn’t know. I don’t trust them computer things.
Now, the price of these Speedmaster watches has been goin’ up lately. Folks say it’s ‘cause everyone wants one, so the stores charge more. It’s like when the price of eggs goes up after a big storm, I reckon. Supply and demand, they call it. But it just seems like plain old gougin’ to me.
Some folks, they collect these watches, like stamps or coins. They keep ‘em in a box and show ‘em off to their friends. I don’t get it, myself. A watch is meant to be worn, not looked at. But then again, I ain’t no expert. Maybe I need to find some of them watch experts to explain it to me.
So, the CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster DateQuote. It’s a watch. It tells time. It costs a lot of money. And folks seem to like it. That’s all I know. If you want a good, reliable watch, this might be it. But don’t go thinkin’ it’ll plow your field or feed your chickens, ‘cause it won’t. It’ll just tell ya what time it is, and that’s about it. But maybe that’s all some folks want. A good, reliable watch. And that’s all I need, really.
