Mir-Flown Best Quality Omega Speedmaster Fake Watches For Canada Go Up For Sale In The Netherlands

Posted by on

As RJ is traveling, I have the honor of taking over his Speedy Tuesday slot today. My old friends at Amsterdam Watch Company are bringing a watch to market. Now, that isn’t something we would usually cover, but this one is quite special and provides a good excuse to revisit an interesting chapter in Speedmaster history. This is one of 35 Speedmasters that spent 365 days aboard the Mir space station.

Let me take you back to July 1993. Omega sends 18 regular steel perfect replica Omega Speedmaster Professional watches on bracelets, 10 on leather straps, and seven in full gold to the Mir space station. It would be a full year until they would come back to our humble blue and green marble. One of the steel models was recently auctioned, fetching over US$118,000. And now another comes to market.

The Mir space station

Let’s start with that special location that is the Mir space station. Mir was the first-ever modular space station that was assembled in orbit by the Soviet Union in 1986. The station remained in low orbit until 2001, making its rounds at 7.7km/s or 27,700km/h. It would go around Earth once every 91.9 minutes. The station measured 19 meters in length, 31 meters in width, and 27.5 meters high, making it the biggest-ever satellite until ISS surpassed it.

Launched in the Soviet era, it would later be operated by the Russian Federal Space Agency. However, crew members of different nationalities were allowed. This included US astronauts, which was quite a step so soon after the Cold War.

Mir functioned primarily as a microgravity (weightlessness) research lab. Never before had people spent so much time in space to test the effects of zero gravity. This is also the official purpose of the presence of the 35 Omega Speedmaster fake watches for sale. Omega wanted to test the effects of long-term microgravity on the watches’ performance, so up they went in 1993.

Bringing the Mir-flown Speedies to market

Upon their return, Omega tested the AAA CA replica watches and found them to function perfectly. The long stay in zero gravity hadn’t negatively affected their performance. This confirmed to Omega that the Speedmaster was capable of prolonged use in space.

Omega serviced the cheap copy watches and turned them into collectibles. The brand added a special case back with “365 days on board space station Mir – July 1993 – July 1994” engraved. A VHS tape and book titled The Moon Watch also became part of the set. The watch itself came in a leather book-shaped box, and the entire set was packaged in a large aluminum carrying case. Naturally, the set also included a certificate that confirmed the space-traveling credentials of the watch.

The luxury replica watches were most likely sold in Switzerland and then found their way to collectors across the globe. Considering their very small quantity in comparison to other special editions, I can understand the appeal. And even though the only technical difference with a common 3590.50 is the case back, the actual space testing makes for a great story. Not many Moonwatch wearers can claim theirs was actually in space.

Coming back to the market

This specific ref. 3596.50 comes from the shared private collection of the owners of Amsterdam Watch Company. It will be the flagship of their offerings at this year’s PAN Amsterdam art, antique, and design fair.

The fair, which is held yearly in the RAI, Amsterdam, starts on the 19th of November and lasts until the 26th. The Swiss made replica watches will go on sale on the 19th and will be on display at AWCo’s stand. If you have your heart set on it but cannot come to Amsterdam, it can be purchased remotely as well.

The asking price is set at €125,000. Considering this one is unworn, and a worn example fetched US$118,000 earlier this year, there may be a market for it. I will certainly be following the process with great interest.

Closing thoughts

The story behind these Mir-flown Omega Speedmaster super clone watches online is quite fascinating. Of course, you can see why Omega marketed them commercially upon their return in 1994. Regardless, they were part of actual performance testing in space. And since only 35 are around, I can see the appeal.

I had the pleasure of handling this top Swiss fake watches back when I worked at AWCo myself. It is fascinating how it is so special and just a regular Moonwatch at the same time. It triggers some sort of short circuit in my brain. In the end, though, it is one of the grail Speedies for collectors. So if you already have your CK2915, yellow gold BA145.022-69, and both Speedy Tuesday editions, this is probably one for you.

Canada High Quality Omega’s New Seamaster ETNZ Edition Replica Watches For The 37th America’s Cup Offers A Striking Design

Posted by on

Omega, one of the most beloved brands in men’s Swiss AAA replica watches, is commemorating the 37th America’s Cup with the release of a special edition Seamaster capable of functioning at twice the depth world-class divers are capable of. The “Seamaster Planet Ocean 600m,” which features a striking black and turquoise design, will cost $13,300.

The turquoise on the top CA fake watches is a tribute to the New Zealand sailing team, which Omega has sponsored since 1995. Team New Zealand’s logo also features an image of the America’s Cup itself. Unsurprisingly, the “Auld Mug” features on the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean, acting as the second hand’s counterweight.

At three-o-clock on the dial is a “countdown indicator,” which is a nod toward pre-race protocol. While you may not find much use for it in day-to-day life, “regatta timers” are pretty handy in the yacht racing world. They’re used to count down to the point where yachts are allowed to cross the start line.

The caseback includes the Team New Zealand logo, along with its iconic fern sail. The back itself is attached via a NAIAD lock, and its edges are adorned with the words “Planet Ocean Deep Black” along with details on the cheap replica Omega watches‘ water resistance.

A unidirectional ceramic bezel is also present, with this being a diving watch and all. The bezel’s diving scale is set in white enamel, and the Super-LumiNova dot on the 12 marker ensures you’ll be able to view this vital indicator even if you dive beyond the sun’s reach. Other parts, like the luxury copy watches’ hands and hour markers, also glow in the dark.

Barcelona is hosting the 37th America’s Cup, which is due to take place between August and October 2024. Sailing teams from around the world, including one from New Zealand, will be competing to win the oldest sporting trophy still in use. The new Swiss movements replica watches isn’t the first Seamaster Omega has designed to celebrate the cup and Team New Zealand. The Swiss Watchmaker produced a similarly motivated commemorative timepiece back in 2015.

The Omega Seamaster is more than a showpiece

The limited edition 1:1 fake Omega Seamaster watches is certainly a collector’s item, and will be particularly appealing to sailing enthusiasts. But this doesn’t change the fact it is still a tremendously functional watch designed to work in one of Earth’s harshest environments.

Inside its case is Omega’s Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 9900 movement. The automatic movement boasts a 4 HZ frequency and a 60-hour power reserve. In terms of accuracy, its chronometer certification requires a minimum precision of -4/+6 seconds a day. The head and movement were tested by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology, which requires the timepiece to be accurate to 0/+5 seconds per day.

Some protections are in place to make the Seamaster function at its best when things get difficult. This includes anti-magnetism protection and shock resistance, along with a five-year warranty. Parts like the Co-Axial escapement have a reduced-friction design, which should mean you can go longer between services and save a significant amount on long-term maintenance. In short, if you’re a fan of perfect Omega super clone watches, this is one to know about.

Top Canada Fake Cartier Drive De Cartier Ref. WSNM0004 And Omega Speedmaster Mark II ‘Racing Dial’ Watches

Posted by on

This week, we have the raciest version of the Speedmaster Mark II, and beautiful Cartier Drive replica watches for sale.

Replica Cartier Drive De Cartier Ref. WSNM0004 Watches

In 2016, CNN had a conversation with Hodinkee, asking some of our staff members to pick their favorite best CA fake watches from the recent SIHH fair. The Cartier Drive de Cartier was the selection of none other than our founder, Ben Clymer.

At 40mm, the Drive is a thoroughly modern sports copy watches wholesale that maintains the signature elements we have come to expect from Cartier while offering something new and exciting. The rounded cushion-shaped case takes up a bit of wrist real estate, but at only 11mm thick and with a profile that hugs the wrist, the Drive does not wear large at all.

Roman numerals, blued sword hands, and the cabochon on the crown are all classic Cartier elements that the Drive de Cartier replica watches for men wears with ease as it takes a welcome place in the brand’s catalog.

What was newer and a more modern idea at the release was the 1904 MC, an automatic in-house movement from Cartier. The Drive came out when the idea of an in-house movement was starting to proliferate across the industry, and the 1904 MC has since proven itself a well-made option that has even found its way into the high horology of Vacheron Constantin.

Fake Omega Speedmaster Mark II Co-Axial Chronograph Ref. 327.10.43.50.06.001 Watches

The original high quality replica Omega Mark II Speedmaster watches was released in 1969 and had a relatively short production run until 1975, when it started to be replaced by Mark III, IV, and V generations. Those later generations would grow in size, leaving the Mark II as the reference fondly remembered for being well-proportioned while giving the Speedmaster line an updated, seventies-ready look.

The case shape brought a bit more steel to the party by removing the traditional lugs and tucking the tachymeter scale under the crystal for added protection. Originally, it was available in black or the orange accented “Racing Dial.” It was the latter that was reintroduced to the world with this model in 2014.

Heavily based on the much sought-after Speedmaster 3570.40, which was a Japan-only edition of the standard Speedy with an awesome racing dial, this modern Omega Mark II super clone watches with Swiss movements has many of the same orange accents on the hands and hour markers while also adding an orange hue to the edge of the internal tachymeter bezel. The only thing missing is the orange Omega logo, but in exchange, we get a modern movement, the Co-Axial column-wheel chronograph caliber 3330.

While the traditional Speedmaster Professional is a timeless luxury replica watches, it is nice to see Omega push the design in new directions and bring back some of the off-beat choices from its past, like this loveable and funky Mark II.

What Makes The Canada Perfect Replica Omega Speedmaster Calibre 321 Watches So Special?

Posted by on

Out of all the cheap replica Omega Speedmaster watches in my collection, the Speedmaster Calibre 321 is one of the pieces I appreciate most. Without making this article a love letter to the watch, let me explain several things that make the Speedmaster Calibre 321 incredibly special.

For the price that you’ll need to pay for this watch, these are things you can and should expect. The normal Speedmaster Professional Master Chronometer retails for €7,500 (€8,600 for the sapphire version). The Speedmaster Calibre 321, however, has a €16,700 price tag. I’ve touched upon the ownership of the Calibre 321 in this article and compared it to that other re-edition of a few years ago, the 60th anniversary, here.

Speedmaster Calibre 321 — It’s in the details

So what makes the Omega Speedmaster Calibre 321 reference 311.30.40.30.01.001 so special? You probably know by now that this Speedmaster is produced separately from all other top CA Omega fake watches, except for the tourbillon pieces. The tourbillon watches, and the Speedmasters with caliber 321 are produced in a special atelier.

Two-fold assembly of the caliber 321

In this workshop, each watchmaker works on one watch at a time. Therefore, each Speedmaster Calibre 321 is assembled and regulated by the same person. Omega has communicated this from the start. A lesser-known fact, however, is that each caliber 321 is assembled twice. The watchmaker will put it together, adjust/regulate it, disassemble it, clean it, and assemble it again. The logic behind this is that watchmakers can examine if all components are working together as they should. It is the old way of doing things, and you will only see it today with some high-end brands. A. Lange & Söhne is a well-known example of a brand that still does a two-fold assembly. It is a time-consuming activity, so the capacity of the watchmakers takes a hit here.

Omega also decided that all of the best replica Omega Speedmaster Calibre 321 watches can be only serviced in the workshop in Bienne. According to the brand, it has to do with the required skill set of the watchmaker. I can also imagine that Omega wants to control the 321 movements and parts and keep that as much in Bienne as possible.

Production numbers

Omega has stated that it wants to produce between 1,000 and 2,000 high quality copy watches with the caliber 321 per year. We’ve heard rumors, however, that production is rather on the lower side than on the higher end of that range. Omega does not communicate numbers (even to us). For example, we see more Speedmaster Silver Snoopy Award 50th anniversary models appearing in the market than this Speedmaster Calibre 321.

Laser-engraved Omega logo

You can also find interesting differences between the regular Speedmaster Professional and this Speedmaster Calibre 321 in the details. The sapphire crystal, for example, has the Omega logo in the center, just like the Hesalite crystals on the Speedmaster Professional. Omega uses laser engraving to etch the logo on the underside of the sapphire crystal. The brand did this before with the Seamaster 1948 and again with the Calibre 321 in Canopus Gold.

Galvanized dial showing more detail

Looking at the dial of the Omega Speedmaster Calibre 321 replica watches for men, you will notice that it looks different from the Speedmaster Professional Master Chronometer Moonwatch. It has not been varnished like normal dials, but rather, it has been galvanized. This adds only a little more thickness but allows more detail in the dial. The circular graining of the sub-dials, for example, is more present in the Calibre 321 than in the varnished Moonwatch dials. We have received some questions about the Calibre 321 dial, and people often mention the “step.” Some wonder if the step is also possible because of the galvanized finishing technique. The Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday Ultraman, for example, also had a step dial, but Omega used aluminum to make it that way. The current Speedmaster Professional has a step dial too, but this is because Omega has improved its varnishing technique.

No milky ring

One of the most noticeable differences with the Speedmaster Professional Master Chronometer with sapphire crystal has been the lack of the “milky ring.” The Speedmaster Professional with sapphire crystal always had this white glow (or “milky ring”) around the perimeter. For some, this is the reason to rather go for the Hesalite edition, while others seem to like it. On the Speedmaster Calibre 321, however, this effect is non-existent, or at least far less prominent. This has to do with the metallization of the base of the crystal. On the Speedmaster Calibre 321, there is black metallization underneath the flat surface of the sapphire box crystal, while on the regular caliber 1861/3861 production models, it has a grey metallization (chromium PVD). This causes the milky ring effect on those models, which is absent on the Calibre 321.

A new crown

Some of you also noticed that the crown system is different on the Speedmaster Calibre 321. The gasket is not inside the crown anymore, but rather, on the crown tube. This is to keep the original crown with the watch. In the past, Omega would simply replace the crown during service because there was a gasket inside of it. Thus, on an older watch, you will find a different crown than it originally came with. To prevent this from happening, Omega put the gasket on the tube instead of inside the crown. It’s also less costly this way, of course.

An illogical order of serial numbers

Last but not least, we’ve received some questions about the serial numbers. I received my Speedmaster Calibre 321 quite early on, and it has an 888xxxx serial number. Afterward, I noticed that some had received Calibre 321 fake watches shop with 887xxxx serial numbers. We asked Omega about this, and the brand confirmed that the series would start with 888xxxx serial numbers and continue with 887xxxx. Upon completing that range, Omega will start using 889xxxx serial numbers. A reason was not given, but the number 8 does do well in certain countries in regions.

Speedmaster Calibre 321 ownership

Having owned the Speedmaster Calibre 321 for over two years, I noticed a few things. The watch is incredibly comfortable, not only because of the size (the Speedmaster 60th Anniversary and FOiS models are similar) but also because of the bracelet. It’s thin and light and makes this watch a joy to wear.

I am also amazed by how well this watch holds up. I have Swiss movements replica watches I’ve owned for a shorter period that show more signs of wear. Omega’s Speedmaster Calibre 321 keeps its shine, it seems, and not only on the ceramic bezel and sapphire crystal. The level of detail on the dial is quite amazing; the circular grain in the sub-dials is clearly visible, while on my Speedmaster Professional Master Chronometer, I need to use a loupe to see it properly.

Admiring the caliber 321 movement

I also noticed that I take this watch off my wrist quite often to observe and enjoy the Sedna Gold-plated caliber 321. My first Speedmaster was a 145.012-67 with caliber 321. It was and is great, but this modern Speedmaster lets me wear it daily without having to worry about scratches, dings, and so on. You can also wear your vintage Speedmaster with caliber 321 every day if you want, but with vintage luxury super clone watches, I noticed I am a bit more careful. It is more challenging to have them repaired or restored correctly if something goes wrong with them.

Price and availability of the Speedmaster Calibre 321

The price of the Speedmaster Calibre 321 was a big discussion at first (even before the several price increases since its introduction), but I feel it has become less of an issue. Yes, €16,700 is a lot of money for a watch in general. Still, it is also a very different watch than the Speedmaster Professional with caliber 3861, and it is manufactured very differently. And, of course, that’s a story to tell to customers, which contributes to the price. It’s a bit like a gold watch, which is more expensive to produce than a steel watch, but there’s a price to be paid for its exclusivity. The same applies here. However, I don’t mind and found myself enjoying the Speedmaster Calibre 321 a lot. It gets more wear than any of my other steel 1:1 CA Omega Speedmaster replica watches.

There’s a long waitlist for the Speedmaster Calibre 321, and most deliveries will be allotted to Omega boutiques. Even though authorized dealers accept you on the waitlist, I haven’t seen them receiving these fake watches site, at least not where I live. Given the fact that there are only between 1,000 and 2,000 examples per year (rumored to be the lower side of that), it’s probably more “limited” than the Speedmaster Silver Snoopy Award 50th Anniversary.
