Just a backstory.
I am trying to get into watches. I dont have much knowledge. I’ve picked up a couple of seikos and im in love with them. I got gifted this Omega moonswatch, and its a beautiful timepiece.
Is there something I need to know about this watch? What is your guys opinion on this particular timepiece. Also, do you recommend if i change the strap?
This watch is polarising but I think it’s a good start and a dangerous slippery slope into years of obsession 😂
It's a marketing marvel.
It allows people who can't afford an Omega to feel part of the brand, without hurting Omega's customer or the brand (because you'll never ever see this watch in steel : the purpose being to immediately and without any doubt know it's a Swatch, and not an Omega).
I tried it in person and was highly underwhelmed.
Looked and felt like a McDonald's happy meal toy
It’s serves a purpose. I tried it on in person as well and didn’t buy. But now I regret that decision.
Seriously slippery
I am ready to slip and fall into the obsession, very ready!
I’m 8 months in and saving for a $1000 watch. Good luck!
