This here watch, they call it the CopyOMEGA Speedmaster Apollo 8 “Dark Side of the Moon”, well, it’s somethin’ else. I seen a lot of things in my time, but this watch, it’s got a look to it. Like that dark night sky, you know? And they say it’s like the moon. Well, I ain’t never been to the moon, but this here watch sure makes ya think about it.
Now, my old eyes ain’t what they used to be, but I can still see that this watch is special. It ain’t got no fancy diamonds or nothin’, just a good, strong look. Like it can handle anything. They say it is 42mm, I think that is how big it is, sound big to me. They make a big deal ’bout that Buzz fella wearin’ one on the moon, back in ’69. Well, I remember that on the television, was a big deal, this watch, a big deal too.
It’s black, like the coal my man used to dig. And that strap, they call it Cordura. Sounds fancy, but it looks tough. Like it could last a lifetime, maybe even longer. You know, a good watch, it’s like a good friend. Always there, always tellin’ you the time, even when you don’t wanna know.
- This watch, it’s dark like the moon.
- They say it’s strong, like it can handle anythin’.
- That Cordura strap, it’s tough, like it’ll last forever.
- A good watch, it’s like a good friend.
Now, I heard some folks talkin’ ’bout the price. They say it’s $12,000. Twelve thousand dollars! That’s a whole lotta money. More money than I ever seen in one place, that’s for sure. Could buy a whole lotta things with that kinda money. A new tractor, maybe even a small piece of land.
But you know, some folks, they like to spend their money on fancy things. And this CopyOMEGA Speedmaster, it’s definitely fancy. Not flashy fancy, but strong fancy. Like a good workhorse, all dressed up for Sunday meetin’.
They say this watch, it’s for everyone. Men, women, doesn’t matter. I guess that’s true. Time don’t care who you are, it just keeps on tickin’. And this watch, it’ll keep on tickin’ right along with it. You can find all kinds of watch, pocket watch, lady watch, they got it all.
I remember my first watch. It was a little thing, with a gold chain. My daddy gave it to me when I turned 16. Wore it every day, until the day it stopped. Felt like losin’ a piece of myself, when that watch stopped tickin’.
This CopyOMEGA Speedmaster Apollo 8 “Dark Side of the Moon”, it makes me think of that old watch. Not that they look alike, no sir. But they both got that same feelin’ to ’em. That feelin’ of somethin’ special. Somethin’ that’ll last. And they got 5 years promise on it, sound good.
Now, I ain’t sayin’ you should go out and spend all your money on this watch. Lord knows, there’s plenty of other things to spend your money on. But if you got the money, and you’re lookin’ for somethin’ special, somethin’ that’ll make you think of the moon and the stars and all that’s out there, well, this might just be the watch for you.
It’s a good watch, this CopyOMEGA Speedmaster. A real good watch. And that’s all I got to say about that.
They say you can find it later this year. Guess folks will be linin’ up to get their hands on one. Imagine that, linin’ up for a watch. But then again, it ain’t just any watch, is it? No sir, this one got a name all the people want, even them fancy people, probably gonna want one. They say you can buy it easy, just like that, click, click, and it is yours. They even have big sale, I hear people talk about it all the time.
I seen a lot of watches in my time. Big ones, small ones, fancy ones, plain ones. But this one, it’s different. It’s like it’s got a story to tell. A story about the moon, and the stars, and the brave men who went up there. It is easy to get one for yourself, just click, click, and pay.
I reckon that’s why they call it the “Dark Side of the Moon”. ‘Cause it’s like holdin’ a piece of that mystery right there in your hand. And that strap is somethin’. They sure know how to make a strap these days. Tough, but comfortable. Like a good pair of work boots. You could wear this watch all day, and it wouldn’t bother you a bit.
