Thanks guy for all the advice, settled on the new sapphire sandwich!

The legibility of the registers is INSANE. Compared to my other chronos, nothing is too shiny or covered. This is the perfect tool watch.

The manual also describes a technique to "hack" the 1863, which I tried and succeeded, so the only caveat I had when buying this watch is now covered!

Immediately took it off the bracelet, then realized the Velcro is too long, and the Nato too chromey, so now it sits on my old Maratec nato, I love it!

If anyone wants the included 2 straps, PM me with offer.

 

Congrats on a great watch! Enjoy.

 

The Velcro strap is meant to be fastened around a spacesuit. Seriously! So hang on to it -- you may end up taking advantage of space tourism sooner than you think

Congratulations on being the owner of an amazing and beautiful watch!

 

New omega fan here. Always thought that my next watch would be the PO but after seeing the sapphire back on the Moonwatch....

 

Congrats. You picked the perfect watch to start your Omega addiction, I mean collection.

 

Wish I could put a sapphire back on mine with the "first watch on the moon"
