Replica Omega Darth Vader

Omega Darth Vader cartoonToday Watches & Pencils goes into hyperspace. Let’s talk about the helmet shaped big boy (44mm x 51mm, 15mm thickness) from the 1970s with reference number ST 145.0023, a.k.a. Darth Vader. Chuck Maddox came up with this fantastic nickname. Scratch-resistant and lightsaber-proof with a glossy Jet Black finished tungsten metal jacket and armed with deep red sub-dials it beats several swiss replica watches in appearance. If you use your imagination you could even match/blend it with the typical helmet of the lord himself:

With the hidden lugs ‘the head’ of the Omega Darth Vader almost seamlessly morphs into the strap. If you watch the back you will notice the lugs. Although this is a big watch (especially for the 1970’s) I’m quite convinced that it will fit most average wrists because of the slightly curved lugs and the nice tonneau shaped case.
Just like Darth Vader, this watch also wears a ‘suit’: it is build out of two separate layers. The internal layer (‘body’) is the core octagonal casing which protects the movement against (magnetic) forces. The outer layer (‘suit’ or ‘harness’) is put on top of this and holds the black tungsten coating.

The only thing I can’t match with ‘Darth Vader’ is the Omega collection in which this epic swiss fake watch has been released: ‘Seamaster’!? Or do you’ve ever seen Darth Vader taking a bath or a swim? The best fake watch is water resistant to 60 meters though.
Let’s enter the Millennium Falcon and go light speed to 2015. Soon the new Star Wars episode will be released: The force awakens. There are several “Star Wars” themed watches these days or even released in the period of this upcoming movie. Some have entry price tags (e.g. Nixon), some for more astronomical prices (e.g. Devon), but none of them does the same thing to me as this fantastic Omega replica Darth Vader does. What is your favorite Star Wars cheap replica watch? What would you recommend to Darth Vader? Let us know and enjoy the movie.

REPLICA OMEGA FLIGHTMASTER: A JUMBO JET FOR YOUR WRIST

For a complicated best swiss fake watch, the Flightmaster is easy to read, thanks to its brilliant information design. Two of its crowns and the pushers for the chronograph were color-coded to the function, leaving no guesswork in operation. The blue crown controls the auxiliary 12-hour hand, the black one rotates the internal bezel and the chronograph pushers are color coded half-red and yellow, to match either set of available hands. Just in case you forgot this was a pilot’s watch, there is a Douglas DC-8 engraved into the back… Based on the massive size and complication, I think it should have been a 747.

How could Omega follow up on this success? In 1969, they released the Flightmaster. This was the first cheap copy watch made by Omega to appeal specifically to pilots. It was a 44mm hunk of steel shaped into a futuristic styled case that looks like the intake of a jet engine. The case was finished in a distinctive sunburst finish and sported three crowns. It has a blue 12-hour hand that can be adjusted independently to show another time zone simultaneously without having to resort to military time. Its orange chronograph hands could be substituted to cadmium yellow as a no-cost special order option…. yellow shows up better under the infrared cockpit lights of a plane.

The best cheap fake watch goes ahead a ref.1035 wrist trinket and with the first box (and external box).

Another Speedmaster reference 105.003 of the Christie’s Omega Speedmaster 50 closeout. No celebrated possession (that we know of ;)) yet a Speedmaster 105.003-64 with a delightful matured dial. Because of the maturing procedure (the swiss fake watch was dispatched to Brazil initially), the dial has transformed into this shocking cocoa chocolate shading.

Take a gander at those sharp and fresh slanted drags on this Speedmaster CK2915-1!

Whether this particular cheap replica watch was utilized as a subject to that crusade is not clear, but rather that could be the situation (no play on words planned) obviously. This watch has been conveyed to Singapore in 19
