It is a beautiful watch but little too busy for me.

I am not a fan of the DSOTM Speedmaster but I have to admit I really like this. £7200.00 in the UK no idea of availability. I’m not in the market for one unfortunately, hanging on for the moon landing 50th.

I got mine at the Omega boutique in Glasgow but they said it was only the 2nd in the country (could be bs though)

Too fussy for me. I like the cleaner lines of the original DSOM

My first post to these forums, as I got mine on Thursday. Absolutely love it, hasn’t been off my wrist, and a lovely companion to my Gen 1 X-33. Two downsides: legibility isn’t actually great, and the hour marker on the chrono dial at 6 o’clock is slightly out, which I’m returning to see about.

I've got my deposit in, could be months before I see it though.

too much yellow for me, too loud, i cannot even wear gold watches as i do not think they fit my taste.

The dial gives me an 'incomplete' feeling...
CK2998, dark side of the moons are better

Exactly. The way the movement sort of peeks out here and there---it looks accidental.

That dial is surely a gem if you enjoy macro photography. There’s just so much going on!

Had I the inclination to spend 9k on a new and modern watch, this would be it.

Ditto. I don't care for the exposed screw heads on the dial. Looks cheap.

I was not sure at first / don't see I will own one anytime soon, but I have grown to love it and these guys are smiling...makes me wonder what is planned for the 321 movement …….
