Well, let me tell you, this here OMEGA Speedmaster Chronoscope, that’s a fancy name for a watch, ain’t it? Seen it down at them fancy shops, the ones with the shiny floors and bright lights. They call ’em “Specialty Stores,” like they sellin’ magic beans or somethin’.
This OMEGA watch, it’s got all them little circles on it, like a dang bug’s eyes. They call them “chronograph sub dials.” What in tarnation is a sub dial? It look like they are three of them. They are made for telling the time, I reckon. Three is a lucky number, I always said. But not for this price, I would say. This Omega Speedmaster is too much for an old lady like me. They say it’s “protected” by some kinda fancy glass, “sapphire crystal.” Sounds like somethin’ a king would wear. This OMEGA Speedmaster Chronoscope, it’s somethin’ else, I tell ya.
They say these watches, these Speedmasters, they’re special. Like them limited edition cakes my neighbor Martha used to make, only she made ’em every week, so they weren’t so limited, were they? But these watches, they say they only make a few, so they cost a whole heap of money. People pay good money for ’em, they say they’re “investments.” Like plantin’ seeds, but instead of taters, you get more money, supposedly. The price for these watches, well. they can go from 500 to 35,000 dollars! Can you believe that?

They got these other OMEGA watches, they call ’em “Chronoscope Paris 2024.” Sounds like a horse race, don’t it? Two little dials on those ones. And these ones got a white face, with all these lines on ’em, like a snail’s trail from back in the ’40s. They call it a “snail design.” Well, I’ll be. And they got different kinds of scales, a “tachymeter,” a “pulsometer,” and a “telemeter.” Sounds like somethin’ you’d use to talk to folks far away. These are all on this OMEGA Speedmaster Chronoscope thing.
OMEGA stopped makin’ some other watch a few years back. “First OMEGA in Space,” or somethin’ like that. Sounds like they sent a watch to the moon! Now they got a new one, but they say it looks like an old one from 1959. These new OMEGA watches, they are smaller. They got these hands, they call ’em “alpha hands.”
This Paris 2024 one, it’s all gold and black and white. Fancy colors, I guess. Like a fancy dress my granddaughter wore to her school dance. These OMEGA Speedmaster Chronoscope are something very special, I think.
They say this Speedmaster thing is iconic. Don’t know what that big word means, but they say it’s important. These watches, they’re good at keepin’ time, that’s what they say. They been makin’ ’em since 1957, that’s a long time. Older than me, even!
They got this new one, just came out. And folks are linin’ up to buy it. Like when they sell them day-old pies at the bakery, everyone wants one. If you like the look of these Speedmasters, they say this new one’s for you. Inside, this OMEGA Speedmaster Chronoscope is very complicated, like my old sewing machine. This thing, they call it “calibre OMEGA 9909.” Sounds like a car engine, don’t it?

Well, that’s all I know about these OMEGA Speedmaster Chronoscope watches. They’re somethin’ special, that’s for sure. Too rich for my blood, though. I’ll stick to my old clock, the one that chimes every hour. It might not be fancy, but it tells the time just fine, and it don’t cost a fortune, neither. These fancy “Specialty Stores” can keep their fancy watches. I’m happy with what I got.
