    Have been eyeing this one for quite a while. The 70'ish sporty style and orange highlights was always catching my eye whenever I would browse the boutique. And since it was my birthday yesterday....seemed like a good excuse :) This wood box is the new "standard" box for Omega watches rather than the typical red ones; it's pretty sweet!

    YEAH BABY! Congrats Eric. That piece is so cool, and I love the new wood box too. Lunch this week so I can ogle it? Wednesday, or Thursday is good for me.

    :thumbsup:

    Great piece, I'm so glad Omega moved to this new wooden box, the old red imitation leather ones were quite poor by comparison, and that's even when they weren't peeling. Does it feel as solid as it looks?

    Yes, the box is very solid and sweet. When she first brought it out I thought it was something special for the Mark II, but was then informed it's the new standard box. VERY NICE upgrade. Omega keeps upping ante.....nice!

    I notice that no has said: DIBS!! Fantastic piece! Had a look and a try-on in Las Vegas last year, and just about walked away with it.
    Congrats!!

    I almost traded for one of these on the forums. This is making me think I should turn that almost into a done deal. What a stunner.

    Are the lugs 20 or 22?

    Congrats. Unfortunately I have the vintage mark II and the Rio, so my wife would not agree with this one. A nice piece supported by a beautiful box.

    Wow, Google. I had absolutely no clue what either of those meant; just that it was probably not very far away. First Google link was an X on a map.

    And, um, nice watch.

    I love the combination of finishes on these cases - polished, brushed and sunburst all together :)
