Cheers for that @Bp1000 I can appreciate how it probably looks better in real life - especially when its on your wrist!. I certainly think they got the proportion of steel to gold right on this too, not overdoing it by putting in the bracelet, just nice hints here and there. Congratulations on the purchase!
No sorry, the photo's just don't do this beautiful watch justice, I don't have one, I am not on the list to get one, and have no plans to get one as it is a touch too pricey for me. But I have seen it in the metal and tried it on, it is stunning and looks great on the wrist, the different colours / shades blend really well IMHO.
It looks very good. The mix of colours and the bracelet make it stunning. I just regret the sub-dial design (to a point where this is a no-go to me) but I believe this has already been discussed many times here. So enjoy! A very fine watch indeed.
I got offered free service if I bought the 300diver which I’m considering as my daily but declined he says d it costs £730 on this watch!?
Master chronometer chronograph service prices are around 700-800 yes. Service intervals, if you stick to them religiously aren’t slightly extended I believe, so it does blend out.
Great photos sir! Looks absolutely stunning. I’m encouraged to hear you report it wears a touch smaller. I recently bought my first Omega - the Moonwatch, and went for the leather strap. I have a 6.5” wrist and felt it wore much better on me than the bracelet. On my wrist the bracelet protruded from the lugs before falling away around the wrist, adding a few mm to the overall length. The beautiful new flat link bracelet looks like it falls away flush with the lugs which should trim those extra few mm off nicely! Can’t wait to get my hands on it. Have been allocated one, just waiting for it to arrive...
Thank you You’re right. The flat link bracelet just falls away from the watch. It’s hard to photograph but the links fall straight down which I think gives it slightly slimmer look. This top down photo and the side photo should show that. Moonwatch photo included on leather so you see what I mean.
I think if that is the case, then that is fair enough. I only have so many funds for watches too and had to move on certain sought after Rolex and Omega models to get others. I wish I could have kept them all.
I have one to pick up in Poland at the end of July. Unfortunately, there are holidays, I have other issues ... If someone wants this watch in the retail price, I invite to Poland
That is a great offer, I would love to take you up on that, but unfortunately my piggy bank is empty, hopefully someone will take you up on this opportunity.
Congratulations! Looks lovely. Quick question: How do you find crown action, especially when winding the watch?
Just read the whole B/S of « this is the most important piece since the original » before giving him absolution. The guy is simply not credible.
Thank you Stiffer is my immediate thought when I first wound it. The typical 40 full turns. It feels meatier if that makes sense. I’ll wind it again tomorrow and see how it feels. Nice to have the seconds hack feature / stop seconds.
