I am sure I should be apologizing for the various threads during my hunt for my Globemaster - after some up's and down's and stalls along the way I finally received it this morning and well...it has truly been worth the wait I am so smitten. To me it fits my wrist perfectly, doesn't feel at all heavy (might be due to the 5 links I removed for my skinny wrist). As today is a very grey and rainy day in Surrey it has a dark blue look to it which is mesmerizing. I started this journey researching and hunting like crazy for an AT Blue dial (23110.42.22.03.001) I was so in love with it and very nearly bought one. But as I am sure has happened many times, when in the OB the GM blue dial caught my eye and I couldn't resist trying it on. After a lucky escape and almost buying it (at the OB price) the hunt for a GM was on and today it was delivered! I can see this one getting a lot of wrist time Thanks to all that have followed my journey, given advice and supported me along the way, I am still learning a lot and have a small but considered collection. My new bespoke watch box should arrive soon and then it is very much a case of enjoying my collection and replenishing the funds before adding anything more . now for some pics, just a few, I am sure a lot more will follow in due course:
As you know I've been following your hunt, the ups and downs - chuffed you got it in the end I'd be following your lead if I didn't have my heart set on the Snoopy... there always seems to be a next hunt
It’s been a very long journey but now you’ve got it. Congratulations and enjoy it very much! It’s a beautiful watch.
Thank you both @munichblue and @Capt Cave Man - you have been very supportive during my journey! That Snoopy will be with you soon I hope!
Congrats, it looks good on your wrist. Receiving a new watch is always a nice moment. This globe has everything to become classic, and confidential.
Congrats! Love the GM, especially in blue, and have put in a few offers only to miss out both times. Such a crisp, classy design, with plenty to look at, and a terrific movement.
Stunning piece! Definitely one of my personal favorites in the catalogue - and such an underrated collection! Congratulations, wear it in good health!
Glad you found one - it is a real watch for all seasons / hopefully a keeper for you. You should register on the Omega website so you can view all the actual test results for your watch. I have found the look of the watch really changes (in a good way) depending on the light - a stunning piece and a very important one for Omega as their first master chrono release.
