Man, I’ve always wanted a fancy watch, and the OMEGA Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch has always been on my radar. It’s a classic, you know? So I finally decided to go for it, but with a little twist – I wanted that transparent case back to see all the cool mechanisms inside. Here’s how I did it.

First, I started digging around for info on where to get one, you can find replica and genuine ones, I really don’t know how to choose. I looked up the ref number – 310.30.42.50.04.001 – just to make sure I was looking at the right thing. This baby is called the “Moonwatch” for a reason. It’s got some serious history, being the watch that went to the moon and all that.

Then I noticed some used watch have different markings, like “APOLLO XI 1969”. This is so cool, I think it’s a limited edition. I don’t know if I should go for it or not.

Next, I had to figure out the whole hesalite vs. sapphire crystal thing. Turns out, the original Moonwatch has a hesalite crystal, which is like a fancy word for plastic. Some people said it’s more true to the original, all about that heritage. But I wanted the sapphire because it’s more scratch-resistant, and I’m a bit clumsy, so… yeah, sapphire it was. And there are some people selling aftermarket sapphire back, I think I can give it a try.

Then came the movement. This one’s got a manual winding movement, which means you gotta wind it yourself. I thought that was pretty cool and old-school. Plus, with the transparent case back, you can actually see all the little gears and stuff moving around. I was sold!

I spent hours comparing prices. I also learned that this watch is a pretty good investment, it can hold its value or even become more expensive over time. That’s always a plus.

After all that research, I finally pulled the trigger and bought the darn thing. It’s the most expensive watch I’ve ever owned, but I don’t regret it one bit. Every time I look at it, I’m amazed. Seeing that movement ticking away through the back is just mesmerizing. It’s like having a tiny, intricate machine strapped to your wrist.

So, yeah, that’s the story of how I got my OMEGA Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch with the see-through back. It was a bit of a process, but totally worth it in the end. If you’re thinking about getting one, I say go for it! Just be prepared to do some research and maybe spend a pretty penny. But trust me, it’s an experience.
