·T TacoShopNot trying to do a massive photo dump, but some guys earlier were asking about the box! Pictures don’t do this watch justice— it is a very beautiful update.
The shape of the lugs look different? Is this because of the size that was mentioned on page 43? They look boxy/squareish?

·This is Omega. Of course they will. Omega practically encourages this. This isn't Patek or Rolex.
Has anyone seen a price for the bracelets?

··Noob taxpayerAm I the only one to be bothered by the non-painted centre of the sub-dials hands ?
Why did not Omega paint them in white as for all the other models ? I think it would greatly improve the aesthetic...
elsewhere it’s been conjectured that because that paint is often chipped off in service (when removing hands), the may be essentially preemptive (the idea, I suppose, being that if chipped off it’s irregular and more janky looking?)
Another issue is they decided to paint the center chrono hand white. The argument that this is a feature to prevent chipped paint is nullified here then...
Honestly from the photos the watch is so close to being a buy for me, can't get over the enlarged logo, it is just an eyesore.
anyone else note how the logo has lost its 'triangle' proportions?

I like the enlarged logo. It reminds me a bit of a pyramid on a base, and it's nice how the logo and brand are of similar proportions now.
Here's a comparison:
The text proportions of the -74 (pic 3) are more in line with printed 1861 Speedmasters.

·Saw these in the flesh this last weekend. Very impressed with the head - dial, case, pushers, and of course the updated movement. Oddly, I was less of a fan of the bracelet. Perhaps it will grow on me, but initially it felt delicate, due to the taper, almost feminine. A lot of lateral 'curve' when laying the watch on its side. Not wiggle in the links just flexible side-to-side. I will have to see it again during another visit to my OB. That said, it's on my wish list for 2021, as I genuinely appreciate the many updates to the watch itself.

·Thx!
Fyi: I was told by OB in Zurich that the bracelet will be available as spare part in +/- 3 months, but no informations about the price 😀
