I've wanted one of these since they first came out, but I was never willing to drop $12K on a watch. I found a great deal on this one and had to jump on it since it's my birthday this weekend! I debated between this and the Pitch Black. I like 'em both, but I think the original version is a bit more versatile. I'm going to get the leather strap from the Pitch Black, though. I think it will look great on this one for when I want to dress up. So if anybody knows the specific part number for that strap, that'd be awesome. I thought about getting the regular co-axial Moonwatch 9300, but something about it seems too grown up for me. The DSOTM is definitely my style. I have a Speemaster Racing as well, that I've been wearing for about 4 years as my everyday watch. Anyway, enough chit chat.
