How I started my Speedmaster collection

My own Speedmaster collection started in 1999 simply by buying one at a local shop. I was still a student but had a huge interest in mechanical replica watches. The Swiss made fake Omega Speedmaster Professional watches was my grail and one that was achievable. On the one hand, I consider myself lucky for being able to start with a caliber 321-powered Speedmaster Professional. On the other hand, it might have been better to start with a more modern variation.

Back then, Speedmasters with the 321 movement weren’t as sought-after as they are today. Prices were still low, so I wore that watch to bars, clubs, you name it. To me, it was a watch. A nice one, yes, but not something I would keep as a safe queen. So, it also doesn’t look like one. If I had to start over today, I’d buy something I’d be able to wear without too much worry. A big part of the fun of collecting swiss replica rolex is wearing them, right?There are not that many watches that truly deserve the label “iconic” and, on top of that, are still somewhat affordable. 

The luxury replica Omega Speedmaster Professional watches, however, belongs in that category. You can buy interesting Speedmaster models for a very acceptable amount below €4,000 or go as crazy as you’d like.I am amazed that there are still some “undiscovered” beauties out there that can be had for a very decent price. But this article is not about getting the most affordable AAA US fake Omega Speedmaster watches or finding the very best bargains out there. Rather, it’s about starting a Speedmaster collection.
