    I had been a long time lurker and then recently joined the OF! However, I’ve felt like a bit of a fraud seeing as I don’t actually own an Omega..

    That’s about to change! For as long as I can remember, I’ve always wanted a moonwatch, but there’s always been something stopping me (usually disposable funds). We got the keys to our first home last week and I felt like a moonwatch was a sufficient way to mark the occasion (after confirming to my other half we wouldn’t be sitting on upturned buckets for the foreseeable future).

    Anyway, my AD haven’t had any in stock for a while, supposedly covid related.. but he text me the below picture today saying ‘this has your name on it’. I pick it up tomorrow and can’t wait!

    You never go wrong with one of those. But, why is it in a Rolex shipping coffin?

    Because it slips into the plain brown paper bag easily.

    Nice. My Moonwatch was my first Omega. I wear it all the time and the coolness hasn’t worn off yet. Congratulations!

    Congrats! Surprised that the AD didn't have Omega's most popular model readily available..sign of these crazy times!

    Congratulations :thumbsup: I remember the feeling when you pick it up, take it home, get it out of its humongous box and stare at it repeatedly :D.

    Sounds like the people in Biel went back to work. After a 3 month wait I’m picking mine up tomorrow.

    Enjoy the new-watch-rush!

    Because it started life as a Daytona and morphed into something cooler? :taunt:

    Congrats on the new pickup. I’m in week #5 of my new moonwatch.

    My wife keeps thinking that I’m in a hurry everywhere we go because I’m staring at my wrist so much. But it’s not the time I’m curious about...I just can’t look away.

    Nice @pete91m
    However that interior looks like a much newer BMW rather than a 91 M hah.
