This here watch, they call it the CopyOMEGA Ω Speedmaster Apollo 8 “Dark Side of the Moon”, it’s somethin’ else. Big name for a big ol’ watch, I reckon. Seen a picture of it, all black and shiny. Reminds me of that black kettle we used to have, the one that whistled real loud when the water was boilin’.
They say it’s s’posed to be like the moon. That dark side, you know? The one we don’t see much. Got all them little holes and craters, just like this watch face. They say it’s a “classic style,” but it looks pretty newfangled to me. Still, it’s kinda pretty, in a dark, mysterious way.
My ol’ eyes ain’t what they used to be, but I can still see this thing’s got a whole lotta tiny little parts movin’ around inside. They call that the “movement.” Like a little clockwork city in there, tickin’ away. Makes ya wonder how they get all that stuff in such a small space.
