Give you 5 reasons to buy Omega SpeedmasterOmega has cooperated with different brands in recent years, and its cooperation with Swatch has successfully set off a global craze for queuing up to buy watches. The concept of the joint series of rubber watches is derived from Omega’s Speedmaster. If you are not interested in rubber watches, it is time to consider Omega’s orthodox Speedmaster. Today I will give you 5 reasons to buy Speedmaster!
1. Historical background that cannot be surpassed
I believe that all of you have heard of moon landing watches, that’s right! Omega’s Speedmaster was the first watch to land on the moon. The Speedmaster was originally designed for racing drivers, but in 1965 it became NASA’s official astronaut watch, and later became the first watch to land on the moon during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. During the Apollo 11 mission in 1969, astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon wearing Speedmaster watches, becoming the first men to land on the moon. The watch that went to the moon. This historic mission made Speedmaster an eternal symbol, representing mankind’s unremitting pursuit and courage in space exploration.
2. Classic design
The classic design of Speedmaster is mainly reflected in its unique appearance and functionality. The classic three-eye chronograph dial, pointer shape, and tachymeter scale on the rotating bezel make the time clearly visible. The internal and external structures of the watch case are very strong and durable, able to withstand extreme environments and challenges, enough to enable it to embark on a journey into the universe. After more than 50 years of gradual evolution and optimization, while maintaining the classic appearance, the quality and functions of the movement have continued to keep pace with the times. I believe that it will not only land on the moon, but may even land on Mars in the future.
3. Versatile looks
When you have a Speedmaster in your hands, you will quickly find that changing its straps is quite fun. The lug distance of the Speedmaster is 20mm, which is a very “large” size. There are thousands of styles for you to choose from, such as: cowhide, crocodile leather, nylon, Velcro, and tape. Paired with a calfskin strap, it will complement your retro look; paired with a tape with holes and eye-catching lines, it will make you look like a racing driver; put on a long Velcro strap, you almost think you are a racer. astronaut!
4. METAS Master Chronometer Certified Movement
In yesterday’s article, I mentioned how rigorous METAS’s testing of movements is. I believe watch friends will be slightly impressed after reading the article. In recent years, Speedmaster has begun to fully upgrade the series and install METAS-certified movements, further enhancing the status of this series in the Omega and watch industry.
5. Aggressive pricing
Based on the above four points, watch enthusiasts may think that the price of watches will be quite high. Similar watches such as Rolex’s Daytona often cost hundreds of thousands, and a Speedmaster with such strength will also be priced at a similar price. The reality is of course not. Omega’s official pricing is very aggressive. You can already buy the lowest version of Speedmaster (which also has the above advantages) for less than 50,000 Hong Kong dollars. How can I not make my cousins excited?
The above 5 reasons are believed to be enough to add another piece to the collection cabinet of watch friends. Before you can land on the moon, first own a watch that has been on the moon!
