Alright, so I wanted to get my hands on a new watch, and not just any watch, but the OMEGA Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch, the one with the transparent case back. Yeah, you heard that right. This thing’s a beauty.
I started by hitting up the usual spots online, you know, just browsing around to see what was out there. I stumbled upon a few places, checked out their prices, but nothing really clicked. One place had it for like $12,900, plus 80 bucks for shipping. Another place was advertising 10% off, which sounded good, but it was still a bit much.
Then I dug a little deeper. I looked at some shops that deal in pre-owned watches. I mean, a used one could save me some cash, right? There were deals, for sure, but I was hesitant. I wanted a brand new one, straight out of the box.
I kept searching and found some listings on a big online marketplace. Prices were all over the place. One was even listed for over 40k! Can you believe that? Free shipping, though.
- I read some reviews, checked out seller ratings, you know, the usual stuff to make sure I wasn’t getting scammed.
- There were a bunch of sellers with good feedback, talking about “excellent communication” and “super fast shipping.”
- One seller even mentioned a “Next Day Shipping” option, which was tempting, but I wasn’t in that much of a hurry.
After a lot of back and forth, I finally found a seller that seemed legit. They had the watch I wanted, and the price was decent. It wasn’t the cheapest, but it felt right. I pulled the trigger and placed the order.
Now, I’m just waiting for it to arrive. Fingers crossed everything goes smoothly. I’ll definitely update you guys once it’s here and on my wrist!
Update
It arrived! Watch arrived in perfect condition. I am happy about that.
