The White UK Top Replica Omega Speedmaster Moonwatches — Better Than The Silver Snoopy Award?

After Omega introduced several Speedmasters not aimed at Moonwatch enthusiasts (e.g. the Speedmaster Super Racing with Spirate technology and the updated Speedmaster Apollo 8), the white-dial cheap replica Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatches finally came out on March 5th, 2024. I use the word “finally” because Omega had already shown it in October 2023 on the wrist of former 007 actor Daniel Craig during a red-carpet event in New York.

Omega sent me the new white 1:1 UK fake Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatches to wear for a few weeks, so I did. I wondered if it would meet my expectations. Would it still make the same impression on me as when I saw it in the flesh for the first time?

The white Moonwatch

The introduction of the white Moonwatch took my Instagram feed hostage for days, perhaps even weeks. Finally, there was some excitement for the Moonwatch fans again! I have been buying (or collecting) Speedmasters since 1999, and Omega’s decision to stop producing (limited-edition) variations in 2020 also put the brake on my spending on high quality Omega Speedmaster replica watches. Of course, when Omega announced the current Moonwatch in 2021, I had to have one. After that, though, I acquired no Speedmasters. I won’t say that these three years were meaningless to me, but they did leave me wondering when we would see a cool Moonwatch variation again. And I am not talking about the Swatch MoonSwatch that came out in 2022. Although I bought several, those didn’t satisfy my hunger for more Speedmasters.

No Speedmasters for three years in a row

This three-year gap made me spend my hard-earned money on watches from other brands, including Rolex and Breguet, as well as half a dozen watches from smaller brands. Distraction! Luckily, though, Omega came up with a new Moonwatch variation that I will need to buy sooner rather than later.

Looking at my collection of Speedmasters, I only own one other white-dial model. It’s the 2015 Omega Speedmaster Professional Silver Snoopy Award 45th Anniversary limited edition. To me, it is the most interesting Snoopy edition commemorating Apollo 13, with a limited run of 1,970 pieces. That’s still a higher number to some of you, but understand that it’s less than a day’s production at Omega. You should always put the number of best Omega copy watches of a limited run in perspective. For example, while 1,970 pieces would be a lot for A. Lange & Söhne, it would be zilch for Seiko. I believe that the third Snoopy edition, the 50th-anniversary model that debuted in 2020, has seen a much higher production than the 1,970 pieces for its predecessor. That said, Omega doesn’t give us any info about those numbers, so let’s not make wild guesses here.

Nothing like the previous white-dial Speedmasters

Anyhow, the Snoopy from 2015 is my only white-dial Speedmaster. During the release of the new white Moonwatch, we also carried a few discontinued Speedmasters in the Fratello Shop, such as the Alaska Project from 2008 and the Italian-market Albino from 1997 (now all sold). Whereas the Albino was off-white at best, the Alaska Project 2008 and Snoopy 2015 limited edition were very white — a “hard white,” I would say. The new Swiss made replica Omega Speedmaster Moonwatches‘ white dial is quite different from those earlier white-dial Speedmasters.

A lacquered dial

The new white Moonwatch has a lacquered dial, giving it a bit of gloss but not too much. It’s as far from a shiny dial as it is from the matte white dials of the Speedmaster Alaska Project and Snoopy 2015. It’s an attractive dial because it also shows a lot of depth due to the applied hour markers (black with a mirror-polished finish) and the recessed sub-dials with circular graining. Based on the comments on our announcement posts for this white Moonwatch, the use of red on the dial is not for everyone, but it does make the dial a bit livelier in real life.

The white Moonwatch has seen a warm reception

Interestingly, this luxury Omega fake watches “just” has a different dial (and handset) from the regular black-dial Moonwatch, but that makes all the difference. Suddenly, it attracts an audience that was never interested in the Speedmaster. I also found that people noticed it quite often when I wore this white-dial Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch during the Watches and Wonders 2024 exhibition and the week after. That was not only true for those in the trade (Watches and Wonders) but also for people just slightly interested in watches. I was at a dinner with a friend who was wearing a classic black-dial Moonwatch 3570.50 but had no further interest in the watch or the Moon association. Even she commented that the white-dial Speedmaster was a beautiful watch without knowing that it was the latest model.

The most interesting comments were those from our Fratello team members when I had it on my wrist in the office. Those who weren’t convinced at first (Morgan and Gerard, I’m looking at you) quickly changed their minds and carefully admitted that they liked it.

I have a weak spot for white dials

I’ve always liked white dials, which explains my (previous) ownership of a white-dial Panerai Luminor Marina, a white-dial Grand Seiko GMT, and two white-dial Royal Oaks (one chronograph) aside from the Speedmaster Silver Snoopy Award 45th Anniversary edition. I was actually a bit bummed when I saw that the third and latest Silver Snoopy Award model had a silver dial instead of a white one.

According to Omega’s initial press release, this white dial was inspired by the white NASA suits of the Apollo astronauts and the red elements by the red lines on the suits since Apollo 13 in 1970 to underline the commander’s rank. Just so you know, I think they just look good, but I am aware that these kinds of changes or amendments to a watch need a bit of storytelling behind them.

Same, same but different (appeal)

Except for the dial and hands, the new white-dial top replica Omega Speedmaster Professional ref. 310.30.42.50.04.001 watches on a stainless steel bracelet has the same technical specifications as its black-dial/sapphire-crystal Moonwatch counterpart (ref. 310.30.42.50.01.002). I don’t have that one in my collection, but we put the new white Moonwatch and black-dial Hesalite version (ref. 310.30.42.50.01.001) side by side in a few images. They’re practically the same watch, but the white dial of this model gives the watch a very different aesthetic. It’s almost as if it were a different watch altogether.

That’s why I also believe that the white version complements the black one rather than replaces it. The white Moonwatch has a different appeal than the classic Moonwatch too. As I wrote earlier, the new white-dial version will likely attract a new audience that is not so into the history of the Moonwatch or strict about the wholesale Omega super clone watches‘ heritage. I have noticed in comments on our articles and social media that several people who didn’t have a Moonwatch before bought this new model. Perhaps they weren’t that interested in the “boring” black Moonwatch. Besides that new target audience, I think some Speedmaster collectors will also be more than interested in acquiring one.

The white-dial Speedmaster Moonwatch over the Silver Snoopy Award?

I wore the new white-dial 2024 AAA replica Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatches for two weeks straight, and the excitement simply didn’t fade. Someone asked me whether I prefer this model or the Silver Snoopy Award 50th Anniversary, and I responded that the new white-dial Moonwatch is somehow more exciting to me. Perhaps it isn’t fair as I have had the Snoopy for a while now, but I like things simple. Sometimes, just a dial (and handset) change is enough to revive my enthusiasm for an existing model.

If I had to choose between the white-dial Moonwatch and the Snoopy 50th Anniversary edition today, I’d go with the white Moonwatch. Still, a large part of the fun of the Silver Snoopy is the automaton on the case back, so that version is a must-have for collectors.

“Black and white, dancing together”

Would I prefer the white Moonwatch over the classic Moonwatch with a black dial? I am too much into the history of the Speedmaster and perhaps too much of a purist to select the white-dial model as my “only” Speedmaster. But I think it is an excellent addition to the collection that could have come out much earlier. I prefer a dial-color variation of the Moonwatch over some of the Speedmaster collections that Omega has added “on the side.” I understand there’s a market for them, but I prefer it when things are not too complicated. Just a different dial color is sometimes enough, especially when the “standard” version of the fake Omega watches for men is already iconic.

Being careful when adding more versions

A good example is the Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon, which was an excellent addition to the Speedmaster collection in 2013. Still, only a little later, Omega flooded the catalog with five or six different versions. The classic stainless steel Moonwatch is a very difficult watch to “touch.” Omega can go wild with the gold or platinum Moonwatches, but the classic one deserves to be treated with care. And I think that’s precisely what the brand did with the new white edition.

The difference in price explained

Unfortunately, all good things end, even my trial period with the white-dial Swiss movements replica Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatches. I had to hand it back after a few weeks, resulting in me grabbing the Silver Snoopy Award from 2015 from the safe to wear a bit more often. But it’s not the same. The new bracelet (with the micro-adjustable clasp), the caliber 3861, and the case shape are all upgrades that have been made in more recent times. Consequently, I need to get this new white-dial Moonwatch. But, just like many of you, I need some savings to do so! This Moonwatch, on the bracelet, has a retail price of CHF 7,700 / €9,000, about €100 more than the black version with a sapphire crystal (and bracelet).

Gregory Kissling, Omega’s Vice President of Product, told us that it’s very complex to produce these white lacquered dials while keeping all the details (such as the sub-dial finishing) visible. This also explains the difference in price with the regular black Moonwatch model with sapphire crystal.

The Speedmaster (Moonwatch) portfolio is nearly perfect

Those new to the Speedmaster will have an even more difficult task now. Rather than “just” choosing between a Hesalite and sapphire crystal, they can now stress out about choosing a dial color. Luckily, the white Moonwatch is only available with a sapphire crystal, which makes it easier.

Omega’s Moonwatch lineup now consists of three standard stainless steel options, a hard-to-get Silver Snoopy Award 50th Anniversary model, the Moonshine, Sedna, and Canopus Gold versions, a platinum version with caliber 321, and a modern version of the 105.003 (Ed White/Gene Cernan) with caliber 321. With all these, I’d say the portfolio is near perfect.

To me (no surprises here, probably), the perfect fake Omega Speedmaster Moonwatches with the white dial is the best release of 2024 thus far in a somewhat affordable price segment. Yes, I understand that “affordable” is different for everyone, but this is the only watch under €10K that excited me in these first months of 2024.

New Release: 2024 Best Diamond Omega Speedmaster 38 Fake Watches UK

Introduced in 2017, the Speedmaster 38 collection is one of many Speedmaster lines that offer a different take on Omega‘s flagship chronograph model. Characterized by 38mm cases, oval-shaped subdials, and automatic movements, the Speedmaster 38mm is largely geared toward a female audience with a wide selection of materials and colorways. For 2024, the brand has expanded the collection with eight new diamond-set Swiss made replica Omega Speedmaster 38 watches, two in 18k Sedna Gold, two in 18k Moonshine Gold, and four in stainless steel.

Regardless of the material, the 38mm cases, which measure 14.7mm thick and 45mm lug-to-lug, all feature bezels paved with 52 diamonds (approximately 1.5 carats) and a crown set with a single diamond. While I doubt these are the first UK luxury Omega fake watches you’d grab to head to the pool, they are water-resistant to 100 meters deep.

The Sedna Gold (Omega’s proprietary rose gold) models are paired with brown PVD dials, punctuated with horizontal oval subdials with a silvery coating. On the other hand, the Moonshine Gold (Omega’s proprietary paler yellow gold) models are combined with green PVD dials and silvery subdials. The stainless steel models are available in both dial colors. Each of the new diamond high quality replica Omega Speedmaster 38 chronograph watches is offered with either a bracelet that matches its case or a leather strap that matches its dial. The three-link bracelets, which are polished and brushed, include Omega’s patented comfort release adjust system whereas the leather straps are furnished with fold-over clasps.

The trio of horizontal oval counters positioned at 3, 6, and, 9 o’clock on the dials are decorated with diamond edges, accentuating the distinct shape even further. According to cheap Omega copy watches, the oval subdials are borrowed from vintage De Ville timepieces. The 12-hour chronograph counter at 6 o’clock is home to a date window, also oval but positioned vertically. There’s green-glowing Super-LumiNova on the hands and plots adjacent to the indices. Finally, framing the 12 o’clock hour marker is a pair of round diamonds.

The screw-down casebacks of the new diamond perfect replica Omega Speedmaster 38 watches are stamped with Omega’s emblematic Seahorse medallion and shield the Caliber 3330 chronograph movements inside the case. Although Caliber 3300 is derived from the self-winding column-wheel Longines Caliber L688.2 (which, in turn, is based on ETA A08.L01), it benefits from the Co-Axial escapement and a Si14 silicon balance spring. The chronometer-certified Omega Caliber 3300 operates at 28,800 beats per hour and supplies 52 hours of power reserve.

With diamonds on their bezels, dials, and crowns, plus the option of precious metal cases and bracelets, these are no doubt super fancy executions of the Speedmaster chronograph — and they carry the price tags to prove it. The stainless steel diamond Swiss movements super clone Omega Speedmaster 38 watches retail for 17,400 USD when paired with leather straps and 17,800 USD with bracelets. The Sedna and Moonshine gold Speedmaster 38 models are priced at 34,000 USD with straps and 46,4000 USD on matching gold bracelets.

Ploprof Vs. Ploprof — A Double Hands-On With The Perfect AAA Omega Seamaster 1200M Diver Replica Watches UK

The cheap UK replica Omega Seamaster Ploprof watches is partially famous for being on the wrist of FIAT boss Gianni Agnelli. Many think Agnelli wore his Ploprof over his cuff because he thought it was stylish, but it was actually because of his allergic reactions to metal on his skin.

Despite him doing this out of necessity, many have praised and copied Agnelli’s wearing style and still do, even today. I have never dared to do it (it just looks a bit weird), and I don’t suffer from any metal allergies either, so it’s not necessary.

The Seamaster Ploprof

The Omega Seamaster 600 “Ploprof” (short for “Plongeur Professionnel,” meaning “Professional Diver”) officially debuted in February 1971 and became available on the market two months later. The last iteration of the Seamaster 600 came out in 1975 and remained for sale until the stock was gone (which, in those days, took longer than in today’s world). You can read more about the original Seamaster 600 here.

The Seamaster Ploprof 1200M from 2009 till 2019

Fast-forward many years to 2009, and Omega introduced a new edition of the Ploprof. This time, it was water resistant to 1,200 meters and equipped with the brand’s then-newest in-house-developed caliber 8500. The best Omega fake watches shared the same odd design as the original Ploprof but did not have a monobloc case. Instead, Omega added an automatic helium escape valve.

Additionally, Omega replaced the red plastic bezel-locking pusher with a metal pusher and an orange anodized ring around it. This China 1:1 Omega copy watches stayed in production from 2009 till 2019 and was also (at some point) available with a white dial and bezel. Later, Omega introduced the Ploprof in titanium in several variations, which are still available today.

The Seamaster Ploprof Summer Blue

In 2023, on the island of Mykonos, Omega introduced the Summer Blue collection of Seamasters. For the 75th anniversary of this line, Omega made a special blue edition of each of its top replica Omega Seamaster watches, including a new Ploprof in stainless steel. It featured a slightly more compact O-megasteel case (read more about this alloy here) with a monobloc construction and a Master Chronometer movement inside. We covered the introduction of this new Ploprof here.

As an owner of a previous-generation stainless steel Ploprof 1200M, I decided to do a side-by-side comparison between these two dive watches.

Case dimensions

Several of my colleagues were incredibly excited to learn that the new Ploprof’s dimensions were closer to those of the original Seamaster 600 than the Ploprof 1200M. Well, surprise, it’s still a large watch. The case length (you can’t really speak of “lugs” with the Ploprof), was never a huge issue at 48mm.

Nevertheless, for the Summer Blue edition, Omega reduced it to 45mm. The diameter remains an impressive 55mm. However, the luxury Omega super clone watches‘ thickness has also been reduced for the Summer Blue edition from 17.5mm to 15.5mm.

Chunks of steel

Aside from the changes in dimensions, there are small changes to the finishing and shapes on some surfaces. If you look closely at the case profile, you will notice the semi-circular chamfers on the crown side.

On the other side, there’s also a small change in design. The surfaces appear to be a bit flatter, and the helium escape valve is positioned in the lug rather than on the case side. The shapes and finishing of the new Swiss movements replica Omega Seamaster Ploprof Summer Blue watches are truer to the original Seamaster 600 Ploprof than the previous steel and titanium Ploprof 1200M iterations.

Neither of the case backs is similar to the original Ploprof, but the former steel model has a bit more ribbing. The new Summer Blue edition has a larger medallion with an engraved image of Poseidon on it. The case back of the previous-generation Ploprof 1200M can be screwed off (and on), which isn’t possible with the monobloc case of the Summer Blue edition.

The high quality UK fake Omega watches has become a bit friendlier on the wrist, relatively speaking, of course. The new Ploprof is, like its steel predecessor, also a beast. I don’t have a preference here, but I can imagine that those with a smaller wrist circumference (mine is 18cm) prefer the new “old” dimensions of the Summer Blue.

The crown

What has also changed is the way the crown works. The previous Ploprof 1200M has a bridge that goes over the crown and functions as a crown protector. When unscrewed and pulled out, the crown is still the component you then use to correct the time.

With the Ploprof Summer Blue edition, there are basically two crowns you can turn. The large inner crown is only for unscrewing the entire winding system. Then, you can use the outer crown to correct the time. When screwing it back in, you first must position the tabs on the outer crown correctly to “click” it into the crown protector. You can then use the large inner crown to screw it all back into place.

Although the system on the former steel Ploprof 1200M is a bit quicker and more intuitive, the new Summer Blue edition has a system similar to the original 1971 Ploprof. Plus, the Omega logo on the outer crown just looks good!

Dial

As the name suggests, the Ploprof Summer Blue edition has a blue (sun-brushed) dial, blue hands, a blue pusher for the bezel lock, and a sapphire-crystal bezel insert with a blue diving scale. It even comes on a blue ISOfrane-type rubber strap. The hour markers are a very light shade of blue instead of white, giving the face of the Ploprof a very blue hue.

Although the original 1971 Ploprof also had a blue dial, the Summer Blue dial has little to do with that due to the sun-brushed finishing and the lighter blue elements. Also, the famous orange hand had to make way for something blue. It’s also worth mentioning that this Ploprof Summer Blue does not have a date window, unlike the original Ploprof from the ’70s.

The stainless steel Ploprof 1200M (2009–2019) has a black dial with a glossy finish and metal-framed hour markers. It also has nothing in common with the original, but it gives the AAA Omega replica watches a bit more of a neutral look. Between 4 and 5 o’clock, you will find a date window, whereas this was originally positioned at 3 o’clock.

I have nothing much against a date at that position as it doesn’t interfere with the hour marker at 3 o’clock, but I prefer the Ploprof without a date. What this steel Ploprof 1200M does have is the large orange minute hand. In my opinion, this is a very distinctive feature of the Ploprof, but I also understand that it would not look good on the Summer Blue edition.

Strap and bracelet

When Omega introduced the Seamaster Ploprof 1200M in 2009, the advertising materials showed it on an orange rubber strap. It was available with that orange rubber strap, a black rubber strap, and a stainless steel “shark mesh” bracelet. I purchased mine with the stainless steel bracelet and added the orange and black rubber straps later on.

I use the mesh bracelet most often despite it increasing the weight to nearly 280 grams (with all the links). And let me tell you, that’s heavy. I don’t mind a hefty watch and even prefer one over very lightweight 2024 online Omega fake watches, but I can imagine it is not for everyone.

The Ploprof Summer Blue edition is only available on the blue rubber ISOfrane-style strap and weighs 183 grams (according to our office scale.) The strap is quite soft and comfortable on the wrist. I decided to try the mesh bracelet from my Ploprof 1200M, which would fit the Summer Blue, and it did, so there you go. You can try to source one for your Summer Blue. Just keep in mind that it’s a different grade of steel.

Despite the impressive weight of the Ploprof on a bracelet, I prefer to wear it that way. Omega’s Ploprof bracelet is incredibly well made and has an easy extension system and an additional diver’s extension to wear over your neoprene suit.

Movements

After several decades of using modified ETA calibers, with and without the (1999) Co-Axial escapement, Omega introduced its first in-house-developed movement in 2007. Having first powered the De Ville Hour Vision, it quickly found its way to other replica Omega watches for men as well, such as the steel Omega Seamaster Ploprof 1200M. It has a silicon balance spring, two barrels for 60 hours of power reserve, and a 25,200vph operating frequency. The movement was also certified by COSC as a chronometer.

In 2015, Omega introduced the 8900 (date) and 8912 (no-date) movements, which were based on the caliber 8500. The 8912 powers the titanium Ploprof 1200M models but also found its way into the 2023 Ploprof Summer Blue edition. This movement uses more antimagnetic components and ensures the Swiss made fake Omega watches is resistant to 15,000 gauss. The Ploprof Summer Blue is Master Chronometer certified by METAS, which includes the regular COSC certification as well.

Needless to say, I have a preference for the 8912 movement. It’s an upgrade of the 8500, and the Master Chronometer certification adds some reassurance. In addition to antimagnetism, the METAS Master Chronometer certification also covers the watch’s water resistance (with an additional 10% margin during the test), power reserve, and performance of the movement between 33% and 100% of the power reserve.

Availability and pricing

The last known retail price of the wholesale replica Omega Seamaster Ploprof 1200M watches in stainless steel was €8,100 in 2019. And for that, you’d get a lot of wristwatch. The current price of the titanium Ploprof 1200M series is €12,000 / CHF 12,400. For the Summer Blue edition, the use of new movements and materials (O-Megasteel) comes at a premium, of course, and then there’s the strong Swiss franc that we’re suffering from now. These result in a retail price of €15,800 / CHF 13,500 for the Ploprof Summer Blue.

As for availability, Omega discontinued the steel Ploprof 1200M ref. 224.30.55.21.01.001 in 2019, so it is now only available through the pre-owned market. The asking prices are above the last known retail price, and on Chrono24, we them between €8,000 and €10,000 in good condition. Interestingly enough, at the time of publishing this article, only a dozen or so are on offer.

Deliveries of the new Swiss China fake Omega Ploprof 1200M Summer Blue ref. 227.32.55.21.03.001 watches are slowly taking place for those on the waiting list, so it might take a while before we see them on display in the boutiques.

The new Ploprof Summer Blue edition reignited interest in this iconic diver from Omega. It being closer in size to the original than my previous edition made me slightly envious, to be honest. I am not so much bothered by the slightly larger case thickness and width of the previous steel Ploprof 1200M, but the mentioned (subtle) design changes and monobloc case are things I love about the new Ploprof.

Omega Comes Clean With Glossy UK Top White Dialled Fake Omega Speedmaster Moonwatches

Daniel Craig set social media alight when he wore a bright white version of modern AAA replica Omega Speedmaster Moonwatches to the Planet Omega Exhibition in New York last year.

Now the UK best Omega fake watches, which has a glossy lacquered dial with white inset subdials, has been given its commercial launch in a reverse of the highly legible monochrome styling of the original Moonwatch.

In addition to its white dial with black hands, markers and tachymeter bezel, cheap Omega replica watches has chosen to present the Speedmaster name in red for the first time.

The mostly white with black colour combination of the high quality Omega copy watches, including the flash of red in the Speedmaster logo and at the tip of a central chronograph hand, is inspired by the space suits of modern astronauts.

Using white also establishes a connection to the 1969 Omega Alaska I prototype, which came out of a project with NASA to design the perfect space replica Omega watches with Swiss movements.

The 42mm steel Omega super clone watches for men uses Omega’s recently introduced Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861 – a modern hand wound remake of the Calibre 321 that powered Speedmasters during Apollo lunar landings.

Omega has the watch priced at £7,600, and it is only available in physical boutiques for now.

A spokesperson for Omega told WatchPro that boutiques can get priority for new launches and luxury replica Omega watches are often not immediately available online. Customers can join a waiting list via the brand’s ecommerce site and will be contacted when stock is released for online sales.

The new Speedmaster can be bought on a five row steel bracelet or a range of straps.
