Here you go - prices based on Duty Free when I visited Watches of Switzerland.

Steel is black face with grey wave lines. Ceramic is grey face with black wave lines.

I think the larger reference is a better fit for the Bond bracelet. I have one for my 2254 and it always seems just a bit too large....

.

I have a 7” wrist and feel it’s perfect , coming from a SMP 41.5 , I always wanted a bit more wrist presence.
And with this being subtle in design , it’s not too much .

I also have a 7” wrist and have no problem wearing this. The rubber strap conforms well to the wrist so the apparent bulk is reduced.

I definitely see the difference in the dial there. I tried on the black ceramic watch last month but didn't think about looking at the steel black as I thought they are the same dial. Makes me want to see the differences in person now. Oh well, an excuse for me to visit the boutique then.. 😜

Finally broke down and got one, pretty over the moon already. Totally agree that this was one of 2019's absolute sleeper hits – just wished I hadn't waited so long to get it.

I tried one of these on at the boutique in Vancouver. Total sleeper hit!

It's a nice alternative to a Deep Black (which I own) if you don't want to thicker case size but still want a good sized watch (that actually wear surprisingly small) on the wrist.

Hey guys, I am just about to pull the trigger on this, but have a concern as I have relatively small wrists (6,5'' when tightly measured with a measuring tape).

Will the rubber strap be too long?

Many thanks in advance!

AFAIK Omega offers shorter strap (although checking on availability is probably a shrewd move).

Thanks for the info, that is good to know.

Well if i were to pull the trigger it would be on a used piece at a really nice price. Hence wanted to ask if there is anyone here who has the watch with a wrist size close to mine and what his/her experience is with the length of the strap.

I originally had the regular size strap, but after 3 months felt it was just too long. Had to go for the shorter strap. 8 months later, can definitely say it was the right decision.

Thanks for the info! May I know what is your wrist size and the reference number for the short strap? How much did it cost?

I've got a 6.5" wrist, and as you can see in my wrist shot above (leather jacket cuff), it fits just fine. I'm on the second-to-last keeper hole, though I'd imagine that during the summertime when it's warmer I'll go up a notch.

Thank you! That puts my mind more at ease 😀

6.5 and leaves 2 keeper holes. (It was the excess strap I disliked) - it was £190 without the buckle

Does it take long

i didnt know they had shorter straps! I’m also on a 6 .5 inch wrist and I’ve tried the rubber strap variants at my OB all seem too long !
Thanks for the info ! Will head down to my OB to ask them 😀
