Answering The “Dirty” Question — Are Cheap Swiss Omega Speedmaster Fake Watches A Good Investment?

Posted on Updated on

Whether a watch is a good investment or not isn’t something only flippers care about. I find that those looking to make their first big purchase also consider this question as well. Buying one’s first luxury 1:1 replica watches is often a big deal, and many people simply want to spend their money wisely. It’s no fun to find out your expensive watch lost 50% of its value the second it left the boutique. Although I think buying Swiss made fake watches strictly based on investment potential is what made today’s market so messy, it does play a role in the mindset of many potential buyers out there.

An Omega Speedmaster as investment

Despite the hype around the Snoopy from 2015, that watch still somewhat represented a niche within a niche. Only those interested in replica watches online wholesale knew about that Speedmaster Silver Snoopy Award (although we enthusiasts like to think differently). For a few years after, we occasionally received questions about investing in Swiss movements fake Omega Speedmaster watches. But since the introduction of the 2020 Speedmaster Snoopy 50th Anniversary and the new Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch Master Chronometer, we now receive the big question daily — is an Omega Speedmaster a good investment?

Strong price development

I must admit, high quality Omega Speedmaster copy watches can be a very good investment. But that’s mainly because I bought many of mine a long time ago. A good example is the Speedmaster Professional Tintin. That’s a watch that I purchased for around €2,200 in Japan in 2017. These days, that model fetches over €15,000. Or what about my Snoopy Award from 2003 that I purchased for €5,000 in 2013 (at already more than its original retail price of €3,400)? Today, that perfect replica Omega watches is hitting the €20,000 mark easily. Even “our own” Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday models have seen quite remarkable price development on the secondary market.

Two years ago, we sold some NOS (New Old Stock) 2022 super clone Omega Speedmaster Professional limited edition watches in our own Fratello shop. Even though we priced them according to the market back then, their buyers would not lose any money if they sold them today.

It can be annoying

The problem is, of course, that we don’t have a crystal ball. We can’t predict the future, and we’re not financial advisors either. I could never have imagined the Snoopy from 2003 or even the one from 2015 would go for absurd prices. Buying a discontinued limited/special edition from the past for a deal is becoming tougher every month, it seems. Not too long ago, one could very easily pick up the First Omega in Space model at a discount. But since its discontinuation, it has made quite a jump in value. Even the Speedmasters that garnered no interest for the longest time have increased rapidly. The “From The Moon To Mars” edition is a perfect example. And it’s especially annoying for those who want to purchase these replica watches shop site to wear them. After all, not every collector just wants them as investment pieces.

The Speedmaster Apollo-Soyuz skyrocketed

I missed out on the Apollo XI 45th anniversary, for example. It has gone up so much (around €11-12K) that I can’t justify it anymore. Another one, and perhaps an even more extreme example, was the Speedmaster Apollo-Soyuz from 2010. The retail price was already quite high at the time — €3,000 on top of the regular Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch, just for a different dial. Granted, it is a meteorite dial, but today’s price is well over €25,000. In hindsight, it’s a perfect example of an excellent investment.

And even today, if you get your Speedmaster Calibre 321 or Speedmaster Silver Snoopy 50th Anniversary at retail, you would be able to flip it and earn a few grand. However, I hope you don’t, and you keep the top fake watches and wear it.

The regular Moonwatch is going steady

Most of the time, however, the question of buying a Speedmaster as an investment relates to either the current Moonwatch Master Chronometer or the previous Moonwatch reference 311.30.42.30.01.005. Some authorized dealers still have the latter in stock. The last official retail price on that replica watches for sale was €4,900, but the average price on Chrono24, the biggest online watch market, is now €5,700. The Moonwatch Master Chronometer on a stainless steel bracelet starts at approximately €6,700 (depending on which country you buy it in, as the VAT might be different).

You might take a little dip at first when purchasing this watch at retail. But the truth is that big discounts are not that common anymore on new Speedmaster models. Also, with periodical increases in price, the dip will disappear after a while as well. I rarely sell best quality fake watches from my personal collection, but I have never lost money when selling a Speedmaster.

Asking whether it’s a good investment while having no plans to sell it

A few years ago, a friend of mine named Anne wanted to purchase an Omega Speedmaster Professional from the birth year of her son. She had started her own business — and successfully, at that — and wanted to celebrate by purchasing a nice watch for herself that she could gift to her son later on. She wanted a reference 3570.50 from 2007, so we looked on Chrono24 and were able to source one for her. Of course, she also asked whether it would at least maintain its value or increase in the future.

What she paid at the time, I think in 2016, was the going price for a pre-owned Moonwatch ref. 3570.50 for a long time. In the last 12 months, however, it has seen a steep increase as well. She has no plans to sell it and wears it as her everyday China replica watches. However, as it will be gifted to her son at some point, I think it reassured her that she made a good decision in buying this watch. She paid a little above the average price (see the chart below), but the watch was in NOS condition — one of her requirements.

According to the Watch Collection tool on Chrono24, the average price of the reference 3570.50 is now around €4,370. Now, these charts are somewhat an indication of the going prices for these AAA fake watches. Some think there’s a lot of room for negotiation, but Chrono24’s CEO also showed me the actual sales prices for certain references. Based on the transactions done, it is safe to say that, in general, there’s not that much difference between asking prices and selling prices.

Go vintage

So, if you’re in it to quickly flip your watch, I’m convinced the standard Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch Master Chronometer is not interesting to you. But if you just want to make sure your money is well spent, I think you can’t go wrong with the current model. The market for certain vintage Speedmasters, however, is where, admittedly, the biggest investment potential lies. Now, trying to purchase a Speedmaster CK2915, CK2998, or even 105.003 and assuming it might still double or triple in the future is a risky gamble. It’s also a very capital-intensive one, I would say. To those interested in a vintage Speedmaster with a somewhat affordable price tag that will still develop nicely in value, I suggest you look into the last tritium Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch models from the 1990s. With these, you will also have the big advantage of finding full sets with boxes and papers as well.

I even believe that Speedmaster Professional reference 145.022 from the 1970s and early 1980s are solid investments today. Although the prices on most of these 145.022 iterations hasn’t increased as steeply as on some of the limited editions, they have shown rather healthy price development over the years.

In the end, I think your investment should be in enjoying your passion for replica watches paypal. I truly dislike people buying a new limited-edition or limited-production Speedmaster (besides the fixed number, there’s not really a difference) just to make a quick buck. It’s not that I don’t want them to make money. What bothers me is that it is at the cost of the true collectors and enthusiasts who are unable to purchase the watch they want to wear. But if you just want to make sure your money is well spent, and you have no intentions of selling the watch anyway, I don’t see anything wrong with asking whether a Speedmaster is a good investment. It’s all about the context of the question.

Buying Guide: The Best Fake Omega Watches Online From The 2000S

Posted on Updated on

By the turn of the millennium, Switzerland had proudly reclaimed its title as the watchmaking capital of the world. The 2000s, in many ways, formed the blueprint for the watch industry as we know it today. By the time the 2000s came around, mechanical Swiss replica watches were incredibly popular. Instead of just selling instruments that told the time, the major brands became cornerstones in the world of luxury goods, and the watch industry was thriving.

We saw brands being bought by conglomerates that turned into the luxury powerhouses they are today. But the 2000s was also the decade that saw the rise of independent brands alongside the industry’s big players. Small brands made it their goal to push the envelope of watchmaking in terms of design and technological developments. In the early 2000s, we also saw 1:1 fake watches increase in size like never before. Panerai, Audemars Piguet, Hublot, and IWC enjoyed a great rise in popularity with their oversized watches. They will all be part of this last decade of the series, the best watches of the 2000s.

Omega in the 2000s

With an overall rise in popularity in mechanical AAA replica watches, Omega was bound to become one of the biggest watch brands in the world. The brand introduced its first model with a co-axial escapement in 1999, which I wrote about in the previous Omega installment in the series with the best Omega copy watches from the 1990s. In the 2000s, Omega introduced co-axial technology to a wide range of models. As a result, the brand upped its game regarding movements accuracy and reliability. On top of that, the De Ville Tourbillon models from the 1990s showed an incredible level of in-house watchmaking skill, something we see continued with a string of brilliant releases in the 2000s.

Alongside the huge step up in product development, Omega also continued its partnerships with some of the world’s greatest franchises. The 2000s saw the introduction of a new James Bond, with Pierce Brosnan making way for Daniel Craig. It created great new momentum for Omega as Craig wore multiple Omega models in both Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. Additionally, the partnerships with the Olympic Games and NASA ensured that Omega grew into one of the most prominent luxury brands in the world. Considering the number of top replica watches that Omega released, a selection of five seems a bit ridiculous. But let’s take a look at five watches that stood out for different reasons.

The Entry Point — Replica Omega Seamaster Professional 300M Apnea ref. 2595.30.00 Watches

The first watch on the list is an oddball watch that I have loved ever since it came out in 2003. The Omega Seamaster Professional 300M Apnea ref. 2595.30.00 is a tribute to the legendary French freediver Jacques Mayol, also known as “Dolphin Man.” Mayol and Omega had a long-lasting partnership that resulted in a series of Seamaster 120M watches in the 1980s. I picked the 37mm “Maxi” version of that series for the best cheap Omega fake watches from the 1980s. What is so special about this Seamaster Apnea from 2003 is that Mayol helped develop the watch. Unfortunately, he never got to see the fruits of his labor, as he passed away in 2001. It turned the watch into a tribute to Mayol when it came out two years after.

The 41.5mm stainless steel Swiss made replica Omega Seamaster Apnea watches is characterized by its Seamaster presence but completely out-of-the-ordinary dial design and complication. The case is chunky at 16.5mm thick and has a 49mm lug-to-lug and a 22mm lug width. The watch came with either a black dial or a silver dial. Usually, I would pick a black dial, but for this watch specifically, the only way to go is the silver, slightly textured dial. It’s easier on the eye in combination with the red accents. Additionally, the dial features applied hour markers, compared to printed markers on the regular models.

The Seamaster Apnea also came with the choice of a rubber strap or a toned-down version of what many consider the era’s “Speedmaster bracelet”. This bracelet was different from the fancier bracelet found on models like the Brosnan Bond-era Seamasters, but Omega did use it on several Seamaster models. While the Seamaster Apnea does looks good on different straps, the modern styling of the case in combination with the bracelet is stunning.

A freediver complication

As the Seamaster Apnea was part of the Omega Seamaster Chronograph range fake watches for sale, it features a chronograph function that is operated with the pushers as usual. It features a unidirectional diving bezel and model-unique hands, as you can see. Despite their look, they are not screw-down pushers, so you have instant access to the chronograph function. So what is this freediving complication that Omega and Mayol worked on? As you can see, the dial has seven apertures that turn from silver to red if the chronograph is running. After every minute, one of the apertures turns red, and after a total of seven minutes, they start to change back to silver. So it creates a timer that indicates 14 minutes on the dial, the time of a dive that only the best freedivers can pull off.

To realize this complication, Omega created the automatic caliber 3601. It was based on an ETA 2892-A2 that Omega heavily modified. The movement operates at 28,800vph and has 39 jewels with a 44-hour power reserve. Omega placed the specially developed chronograph module on top of the movement to equip it with the freediving complication. The added module is the reason for the thicker case. Overall, the Seamaster Apnea is a fascinating watch both technically and aesthetically. I love the looks of this watch and would gladly add one to my collection at some point. Finding one is not tough, although there are never many on offer. Expect to see prices between €2,5K and €3K for one, which is not a lot of money for such a special piece commemorating such a special human being.

My pick — Fake Omega Seamaster Professional Ploprof 1200M ref. 224.30.55.21.01.001 Watches

Next up is my pick, and there was not a single shred of doubt about what watch it should be. The Omega Seamaster Professional Ploprof 1200M ref. 224.30.55.21.01.001 is currently second on my list of replica watches with Swiss movements to purchase right after the current-generation Speedmaster. I love the Ploprof that Omega unveiled in 2009 as the follow-up to the legendary Seamaster 600 “PloProf” from the 1970s. While I usually do not prefer a re-issue over the original, the 2009 version is a lot better, in my opinion, than the original. Don’t get me wrong, I love both, and as a fan of the PloProf, I think you should own both to understand its magic. But what Omega pulled off with the modern Ploprof was quite impressive.

I wrote a longer article about my love for the Ploprof in which you can read why I find it such a fascinating watch. For this article, I will keep it short. First off, there is not a single thing that I do not like about this watch, which is unique, as I always find details that I don’t like. The old PloProf had details that I didn’t like, for instance, the chopped-off look of the hour hand and a mix of orange and red accents. But the 2009 wholesale fake Omega Ploprof watches solves all that by introducing a new hour hand, as well as a matching orange color for the minute hand and the bezel-unlocking button. Even the integration of the date window was done better. It is neatly tucked away between 4 and 5 o’clock, with a black date wheel so it doesn’t stand out. It makes for an even better design than the original already was.

The perfect design for the task

It’s a design that starts with the case, though. The extravagant stainless steel case design might not make sense at first with its asymmetrical shape and bonkers 55mm × 48mm dimensions. But look again, and you will find that the base of the case is very symmetrical indeed. The functional elements that have been added to the watch make it look asymmetrical and weird. But it’s weird for exactly the right reasons. There is the integrated screw-down crown on the left. On the right, you will find the extra shape containing the orange pusher that unlocks the rotating diving bezel. The watch came with the choice of an orange rubber strap or stainless steel mesh bracelet. While you definitely need both, the mesh bracelet is the one to go for when purchasing the watch. Try to get the rubber strap as an extra to change things up.

Inside the case, Omega equipped its top-of-the-line professional diving watch with caliber 8500. It’s a self-winding movement with a co-axial escapement that operates at 25,200vph and has 60 hours of power reserve. I could go on forever about the Ploprof, but in essence, the watch is a 279g chunk of steel that combines everything I want from a watch. The combination of the highest level of functionality, the incredible story, and stylish good looks make this a beater of which you can be proud. These things make the Omega Seamaster Ploprof 1200M one of my favorite replica watches online site ever. Expect to pay roughly between €7,5K and €11K for one. I say that’s the best money you could ever spend on a watch!

Money is no object #1 — Omega Speedmaster “The Legend” ref. 3559.32.00 Replica Watches

Next up is an iconic Speedmaster that is not part of the iconic Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch story. As you probably know, I try to keep away from the Speedmasters in this series, as we have our Speedy Tuesday series of articles for that. But there are some exceptions outside of the scope of the Moonwatch that deserve our attention indeed. The Omega Speedmaster “The Legend” ref. 3559.32.00 was part of the series of Omega Speedmaster fake watches paypal that Omega created for legendary race car driver Michael Schumacher. The series started when Schumacher became an Omega ambassador in 1996 with two iconic Speedmasters characterized by their red and yellow aesthetic. The colors were a result of Schumacher’s first year at Ferrari. After that, a string of different Schumacher models followed.

Seven years after joining Omega, Schumacher won his sixth F1 championship in 2003. To celebrate the fact, Omega released the most iconic of the Schumacher models in 2004.  The ref. 3559.32.00 with its steel bezel and Paul Newman-inspired dial design has become legendary amongst fans of Speedmasters. Sure it “borrows” its dial design from the Rolex Daytona. Still, in my opinion, it shows the great versatility of the Speedmaster design, rather than putting you off with its familiar panda-dial aesthetic. The watch was produced in a limited run of 6,000 pieces that are all individually numbered. Almost two decades later, it still looks as fresh as it did at the time of introduction.

Different Speedmaster Legend models

In 2005, Omega released another series of three Schumacher Legend replica watches shop with the same aesthetic as my pick for this list. The first is the panda-dial version ref. 3506.31.00 that looks a lot like the limited edition model from 2004. The main difference was that the sub-dials were not fully black, but had black borders surrounding their stark silver centers. The second model is the reverse panda dial ref. 3507.51.00 that features the familiar black Speedmaster bezel. The third is a red-dial version with black registers with ref. 3506.61.00. These were regular-production models that were made until 2009 and often get mixed up with the limited edition model from 2004.

The watch featured a familiar 42mm stainless steel Speedmaster case and came on a stainless steel bracelet. Inside the “Sixth Title Edition,” Omega used caliber 3301. This automatic movement is based on an F. Piguet (caliber 1285) column-wheel chronograph movement. The movement operates at 28,800vph, has 33 jewels, and comes with a 52-hour power reserve. It features a date indication at 6 o’clock, and Omega also had it chronometer-certified. I love the looks of this best quality super clone Omega Speedmaster watches a lot. I think it’s one of the best non-Moonwatch Speedmaster models ever released. Finding one of the 6,000 pieces is not impossible, but they do not show up for sale in big numbers. Expect to see prices roughly between €5K and €6K for one. The three later models are a little cheaper and great options that are not as hard to get.

Money is no object #2 — Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M ref. 2201.50.00 Fake Watches

This list would not be complete without a Seamaster Planet Ocean. On top of that, Daniel Craig also deserves a spot on this list. What better way to include both than choosing one of the Planet Ocean models that Craig wore in the Bond films? The obvious choice would be to go for the Seamaster Planet Ocean ref. 2900.50.91 that Craig wore in Casino Royale. However, I find that too big at a whopping 45.5mm and 17mm thick. Also, I’m not too fond of the style of the rubber strap. It’s why I picked the AAA luxury replica Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M ref. 2201.50.00 watches that he wore in Quantum of Solace. It is probably the only element of Quantum of Solace that can top Casino Royale because it is the worst of the Daniel Craig-era Bond films. But that’s a rant for another time.

The Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M ref. 2201.50.00 is significantly smaller at 42mm, making it easier to wear. Additionally, Craig wore it on a stainless steel bracelet that made the watch look a lot better than on the rubber strap. As a quick reminder, let’s take a look at the history of the Planet Ocean series. It was introduced in 2005 as a series of modern divers that came in 42mm and the 45.5mm size that I mentioned earlier. The design of the first-generation Planet Ocean was inspired by the Seamaster 300 ref. 165.024 from the 1960s. For reference, it’s the Seamaster that Omega re-introduced in a modern version to its collection in 2014, and the one you all know as the previous generation of the Seamaster 300 collection.

A perfect daily wearer

The most eye-catching model of the Planet Ocean line has always been the one with the orange bezel. This color was chosen because it is the last color that divers can see as they descend underwater, and a bonus is that it looks very nice. The 42mm case is 14.5mm thick and water-resistant to 600 meters. It features the characteristic helium escape valve at 10 o’clock. It’s an element that a lot of people don’t like. Personally, I do not have a problem with it at all. Inside the case, US Omega fake watches used its co-axial Caliber 2500. This automatic movement operates at 25,200vph and has 27 jewels and 48 hours of power reserve.

Finding a Planet Ocean 600M ref. 2201.50.00 is not that hard. They were pretty popular modern divers that served as perfect daily beaters. Expect to see prices for one roughly between €3K and €4.5K depending on condition and whether the box and papers are included. Fifteen years after their introduction, the first-generation Planet Ocean models still look very up-to-date, and they could still serve as a great daily wearer. But whatever you do, please ignore that horrendous 45.5mm Quantum of Solace limited edition. That is even worse than the film itself. Stick to what Bond himself was wearing in the film, and you will have a great watch.

Money is no object #3 — Replica Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra “-188 Days” Beijing 2008 ref. 221.10.42.40.01.001 Watches

The last watch on this list is a special one. Some of you might know that one of my all-time favorite best quality fake Omega watches is the De Ville Chronograph ref. 145.018 from the late 1960s. Fratello’s own Mike owns one, and it is a joy to see. The elegant overall shape combined with the colorful sub-dials and a great movement creates one of the many Omega icons of the past. Mike and I have also said several times that it would be great to see Omega develop a modern version of that historical icon. During my search for this list, I stumbled upon a watch that reminds me of the aesthetic of the De Ville Chronograph. The Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Chronograph Beijing 2008 ref. 221.10.42.40.01.001 has quite a bit of that great charm that makes the De Ville Chronograph such a classic.

The Aqua Terra Chronograph “-188 Days” was released 188 days before the start of the Beijing Olympics in 2008. Versions were available both in full stainless steel and two-tone red gold and steel. The stainless steel version is my pick for this list. These replica watches store were part of a large collection of pieces that Omega released for the Beijing Olympics in 2008. One of them was the remarkable Omega Speedmaster 5-Counters Chronograph with five registers arranged the same way as the Olympic rings. But back to our story. Two years before the Olympic Games in Beijing, the Winter Games were held in Torino. For the Torino Games, Omega released an Aqua Terra Chronograph that featured a white dial with blue hands and markers and a red pulsation scale. It is essentially the same watch as the Beijing 2008 version, but the colors make a great difference.

The Olympic Rings counterweight

The Aqua Terra Chronograph “-188 Days” features a 42.2mm stainless steel case. On the case back, you will find the Beijing 2008 Olympic logo engraved together with the limited edition number out of the 2008 pieces that Omega produced. But the front is the striking part for me. The watch features a reverse panda dial in black and white. The dial features a pulsation scale in white and applied polished hour markers. The only hint of color comes in the Olympic rings that serve as a counterweight for the central chronograph seconds hand. I love the subtlety of that hint of color, but honestly, I could have done without it. Not as part of the Olympic limited editions, of course, but overall, I think I’d prefer if it weren’t there.

The watch comes with a domed sapphire crystal and is water-resistant to 150 meters. Inside the stainless steel case, Omega equipped the watch with its caliber 3301. It’s the same self-winding column-wheel chronograph that powers the Speedmaster Schumacher that we discussed earlier. Overall, I love seeing this version of the Aqua Terra Chronograph. It is one of the best-looking China fake watches the brand produced in the late 2000s, in my opinion. While I’d much prefer a version without the Olympic rings, I also realize that the idea of seeing a regular modern version of the iconic De Ville Chronograph ref. 145.018 could still be in the books. Finding a Seamaster Aqua Terra Chronograph Beijing 2008 is possible. Expect to see prices ranging from roughly €4K to €6K for this great timepiece.

Final Thoughts

The 2000s saw a boom in the popularity of watchmaking overall and for Omega specifically. The brand made some of the most iconic 2021 replica watches of the era and continued the partnerships that are still going strong today. I can only highlight a couple of the brand’s creations, so you should definitely check out more on your own. Some honorable mentions are the amazing De Ville Chronoscope, the De Ville Hour Vision Annual Calendar, and the stunning pieces from the highly underappreciated Omega Museum Collection. And please remember that, in this series of articles, I stay away from the many Speedmaster models as we have our Speedy Tuesday articles to cover them.

As always in this series of articles, I cannot stress enough to do your research if you want to buy a vintage watch. On top of being crucial in not ending up disappointed with your purchase, it is also a lot of fun. Doing research and finding out about the top quality imitation watches you love is often the first connection you will make to a specific piece. Try to get your hands on the books Omega — A Journey Through Time and Moonwatch Only. Contacting a vintage expert will also help out a lot. It’s a great way to learn more about a watch and get to know some fantastic people along the way.
