Even something as iconic as the UK 1:1 replica Omega Seamaster can’t escape the gravitational pull of green that is currently storming through the industry. But, when it’s executed to the level of the cheap super clone Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Master Chronometer Green, we’re far from complaining.
It respects all the elements that make the AAA replica Omega Seamaster Diver 300M such a great watch, and introduces the colour green in multiple ways. First, there’s the classic ceramic dial with laser-cut wave-like grooves. Second, there’s the ceramic bezel insert with enamel diving scale.
And lastly, but this is optional, you can wear the Swiss made super clone Omega UK on a green rubber strap (the alternative being the familiar stainless steel bracelet). Mechanically speaking, all remains the same, so you get top copy Omega’s METAS certified Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8800. It’s available for EUR 5,400 (on rubber) or EUR 5,800 (on the bracelet).

In the world of luxury fake Omega Speedmasters, there’s basically nothing more rare than a NASA issued Speedy that was flown to the moon. We’ve put human beings on the moon six times, all between the years of 1969 and 1972, and every 1:1 super clone Omega Speedmaster strapped to every spacesuit worn by each astronaut on those missions was the property of the United States federal government.
Legally, these high end replica watches all had to be returned to NASA, and if you somehow came across one and tried to sell it, you’d be likely to get a knock on the door from someone more than willing to flash you their identification. So, those Speedies are basically untouchable and uncollectable. But that doesn’t mean that there aren’t extremely special astronaut owned AAA super clone Omega Speedmasters out in the world that well heeled collectors can at least make an attempt to obtain. We heard about one such Speedy recently currently on the block in Texas, a fitting location given its NASA provenance.
The gold perfect super clone Omega Speedmaster Professional seen here was owned by Michael Collins, part of the Apollo 11 crew that was first to land on the moon in 1969. Collins, who flew the command module while astronauts Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong touched down on the lunar surface, passed away last year. Collins had a distinguished career that included two spaceflights (the other was on Gemini 10 in 1966), and a stint with the State Department and then the Smithsonian Institution following his retirement from NASA in 1970. While he was known to wear a copy Rolex when not orbiting the moon, watch lovers will likely always associate any Apollo era astronaut with the Speedy, which speaks to the truly iconic nature of the watch in the eyes of the public.
If this particular gold high end fake Omega Speedmaster looks familiar, that’s because Omega reissued a version of it early in 2019. That reissue represented the first time a Speedy Pro had shipped with a movement featuring a co-axial escapement, a feature that has now trickled down to the standard top fake Omega Moonwatch in stainless steel, but felt like a pretty big deal only a few short years ago. The original watch, like the one owned by Collins, is an incredibly rare piece of NASA and Swiss movemnet replica Omega history. The reference BA145.022 was produced in extremely limited numbers during the Apollo years, and reserved for astronauts and other VIPs (pieces made for Richard Nixon and Spiro Agnew were turned down in accordance with rules associated with Presidents and the receipt of gifts).
The Swiss fake Omega is being sold at auction through Heritage Auctions, based in Dallas, TX, and includes a handwritten note from Collins confirming its authenticity. The note reads, “ThisOmega super clone for sale was given to me shortly after the flight of Apollo XI, and has been in my personal possession ever since. I wore it seldom if ever, but I have wound it every decade or so, and I believe it is in perfect operating condition. Michael Collins, Apollo XI CMP.”
With less than 20 days to go in the online auction, the super clone watch uk is currently sitting at $82,500.
You may be wondering how much I paid for this NATO strap, so let’s get that out of the way first. It was £230. The super clone Omega MoonSwatch was a palatable £207 and even appreciates exponentially on the pre-owned market. So why is this NATO so pricey? For some years now, perfect super clone Omega has offered a broad selection of NATO straps in two sizes.
The 20mm strap comfortably fits the Speedmaster Moonwatch and the Seamaster Diver 300M, undoubtedly two of the most popular Omega replica watches online in the collection. But the 20mm strap can also be squeezed through the 19mm lugs of watches such as the Speedmaster First Omega in Space and Calibre 321. The same goes for the 22mm NATO, which Swiss made copy Omega suggests is suitable for 21mm lugs. But I’m not so sure. I’ve always been in the camp of selecting the appropriately sized strap for the watch.
The strap has to fit just right Having the strap bunched up at the edges does not give the strap the freedom to articulate and possibly wears away the material. Conversely, as demonstrated by James Bond, a strap too small for the lugs can leave an unsightly gap and the spring bar exposed. That left me in a quandary for how to pair an AAA super clone Omega NATO with my Seamaster 300, as I needed a NATO that was 21mm wide. Then it struck me that 1:1 fake Omega UK gave us the limited-edition SPECTRE Seamaster 300 in 2015 to coincide with Daniel Craig’s penultimate Bond movie. The style is somewhat of a callback to the strap on Sean Connery’s copy Rolex Submariner ref. 6538. Although, I must point out that the strap seen in the close-up in Goldfinger is a pass-through, not a NATO. It also had a different color scheme with two olive-green stripes surrounded by thin red borders.
Looking like a British spy More importantly, the Bond NATO for the SPECTRE model is bespoke to the watch and 21mm wide — precisely what I needed for the new Omega Seamster 300 super clone for men. I always liked the SPECTRE model, so recreating this look with my Seamaster 300 gives me a Bond vibe I enjoy. It also helps that both watches share the lollipop seconds hand. So how does it wear on the wrist? I’ve said it before, but I am someone who prefers when a buckle sits in the middle of my wrist. On most of my NATO straps, I find the hardware placement is not to my liking. Either the buckle leans too far to one side, or the keepers uncomfortably pinch my wrists. The cheap fake Omega buckle, however, is perfectly positioned, and the distances between the hardware are adequately considered.
The seatbelt-style fabric is also of high quality, and the surface is silky and smooth to the touch. The Bond NATO is thick but easily slots through the spring bars and still sits nicely on the wrist. Stamped on the brushed steel buckle is the high quality replica Omega logo with “OMEGA” further engraved on the keeper nearest 6 o’clock. And as I am a Bond nerd, I love the “007” co-branding on the keeper closest to 12 o’clock. The remaining loop also slides up and down, allowing you to tuck the strap end away neatly without it catching.
Final thoughts Overall, this is a comfortable and stylish strap that works as a casual alternative to the more formal bracelet or leather strap. A regular Swiss super clone Omega NATO is £145, but I paid a little more for this special 21mm strap at £230. As I said earlier, this is more than a MoonSwatch, but it’s a worthwhile purchase when it looks so good and could get more wrist time. The strap reference is CWZ003210, and the buckle reference is 025stz003217. That said, the packaging it came in said “031CWZ014732”, so it’s worth checking all numbers with your Swiss movement replica Omega authorized dealer if you’re interested. The No Time To Die Omega NATO with titanium hardware is £290, so at least this one is not the most expensive.
