    Hi all, I just bought a new Omega FOIS from jomashop.com. The watch was shipped very quickly. Everything is fine except that the inner color of the leather strap is black - which is something I have never seen before. Could you all take a look and advise if there is anything off with the watch?

    Thank you all very much for your validation

    Nothing wrong, IMO. Probably justed switched the colour of the liner, which is a good thing as it'll take longer for dirt to show compared to the off-white type.

    Yes - for mee looks all right, too - except the inner colour ... something which would not make me feel nervous :)

    No, it's exactly right colourwise imo and in other respects. I bought my FOIS about a month ago and absolutely love it,wear it daily combining it with my Dad's 145022-78 Speedmaster. I hope you enjoy the watch as much as I do.

    Just looked this up on Jomashop - Wow can't beat that price!

    Given the manufacturer warranty is only 2 years on this movement, this is one where I would say the factory warranted does not justify the price premium - even from a trusted AD with a nice discount.

    Anyways - congrats on the watch. Definitely one of my favorites.

    I saw one at a suburban Chicago Omega Boutique. Looks the same. Very nice watch.

    My cousin picked one up, he loves his. Great history to the original one.
