Anyone got one yet?
Tried this on in the local OB yesterday. Wow! All I can say. The dial and the Sedna gold treatment are just perfect. This is definitely going on my list (along with a Steel Rolex YM2 - sacrilege I know).

 

The JLC is I think spoiled by the hands. By sheer force of prejudice, I wouldn't even consider the Rolex! At nearly £10K this is a Speedy I'd have no desire to own, but I respect the concept and 'look' certainly.

 

Which Meteorite Dial would you prefer Ladies & Gentlemen ?

 

Would you still consider the JLC if the hands were in Rose Gold?

 

Looks better, but my main objection is to the shape of those hands which seem to me curiously inelegant . . and although Rose Gold is not my favourite metal, as I'm interpreting your message as a very kind offer, how could I refuse such an unexpected gift from you: I'll PM you my postal address; (please don't be off-put by the fact that its what used to be called a loony bin!)

 

The Soyuz speedyorite tops them all, in my opinion.

 

Rose jlc with meteorite dial is on my wish list.

 

+1 for Apollo Soyuz

Holy cow!!! The steel JLC is not that expensive it sounds like a nice addition to the collection.
On the pic you posted the dial looks very nice, it's kind of dark, on other pictures I saw online it has a more silvery look. Hmmmm, it looks much nicer the way it looks in the pictures here.
Rolex is a big NO-NO for me and the speedmaster, in this case is also a NO-NO. The combination of Sedna with the ceramic case bothers me somehow.

 

I thought the JLC meteorite dial was a little different from the other dials ...so when i read that the origin of the JLC dial was not the Gibeon ( i keep typing Gideon !!) in Namibia but Sweden. Oh Yeah ! The Swedish Rock came from the Asteroid Belt....

Personally a fan of the GSOTMM. Saw one in person recently:

GSOTMM even without the OF bias

 

US friends of mine came over for the Goodwood Revival and after we enjoyed that weekend they stayed with me for a few days. On a visit to Cheltenham (my local town) there just happened to be a GSOTM Meteorite in Beards. Thirty minutes later it was no longer in Beards! They had ADs in LA, Beverly Hills and Las Vegas trying to get one for them. I have to say that the images/pictures don't do it justice and I wasn't that keen from images; in the flesh it is stunning.

 

Thats a very unflattering shot of the Daytona. I've seen one in person and I really like it in person and I'm not a fan of the meteorite or Daytona of that era.

 

Hi @Foo2rama

I feel guilty putting up an unattractive lousy photo of the Daytona 116519 Meteorite. Now i'll show you a Malaysian who owns the very watch , posted in the Malaysian watch forum & hope the photos do some justice....some sort of redemption is surely required here.

You are right of course, Sir.I've seen one in the flesh on the wrist of a Malaysian Chinese " Tauke " ( Businessman ) & i couldn't take my eyes off the Daytona meteorite [emoji15]

 

Oh Yeah , Mr Raynald Aeschlimann , the Big Kahuna of Omega , if you're reading my post , if an updated version is on the cards , i suggest the date should match the Red colour of the Speedmaster font because its large date size is a definate distraction & steals some of the limelight away from an otherwise beautiful dial [emoji51]

 

Better yet, Mr. A, please leave the date off entirely!

As for favorite models, meteorite should never look white, it should look black as night (with some reflections):

Mine, in the back-yard:

 

I would have to agree.

 

+1 on the date. Speedy shouldn't have a date, although it looks better at 6 than 3.

 

Looks a lot better in Rose Gold.
