It is a great watch, so much better than the GMT hamburgers currently offered up in the Planet Ocean line. It's one shortcoming, however, is the way-to-bold numbers on the bezel. Due to that, the black-dial version of that watch works better. That's because the delicacy of the great white's superb dial is pretty much overshadowed if not wiped away by that bezel.
I love the butterfly clasp on the Bond-style bracelet that originally came with this watch, and it's really too bad they didn't incorporate that feature into the Speedmaster-style bracelet that came with this watch in its later years. I also love the fact that Omega deleted the helium escape valve. It's little touches like this that make this watch such a winner.
I acquired one of these beauties in early 2010 from Ace & Spyer in Amsterdam. Production had already ceased by then, but fortunately the store manager was still able to get Omega to ship a new one out to her. Still have it in my collection today.
