·It is exactly the same except in place of yellow stitches it is red.

·I like this very much. However, 44mm is far too big for me. The other thing is that it would strange to buy something whichever’s to another brand without having anything with that other brand.

·Pretty watch! Reminds me of Connect 4 chips when placed next to Apollo 8 but that’s just how my brain works. Not quite sure how it came about that a Speedmaster was picked ahead of a Seamaster chrono for a yacht race but maybe that line’s become a bit tired... you can get the ceramic ETNZ Seamasters at a hefty discount these days.

·So, the subdial at 6 o'clock which is half hours if I recall correctly, will just be an occasionally moving logo? That sounds kind of silly. How do I know how much time has elapsed?
I had a DSOTM Apollo 8 which aside from being DOA (they fixed it) was a beautiful watch and I thought it was really cool. Unfortunately, that "really cool" factor overrode my common sense, as it is just too big for my svelte waif-like wrists. And so now it is gone.

There's a small white triangle on top of the logo to indicate the position.

Thanks. It must be covered up by the hands in the image above.

Yes, the dials were not in an ideal position when I took the pic 😀 Can be seen more clearly on some of the press pics.

·It is rubber but very comfortable to wear. Would be nice though if they added a deployant clasp option at some stage.

·It‘s rubber and should be nicely waterproof. Does look like leather though. Will see if it retains the nice matte look when used.

·Not so, you can buy a black Omega ceramic DP clasp and an Omega replacement strap designed for the DP buckle.
Edit - thanks to your post, I've been doing some googling, and wondering if what I've been told by the OB is in fact complete rubbish - wouldn't be the first time they've given me incorrect information in there, but I did think after asking different people twice I would have flushed this out ...

·Robert-Jan, you may want to change the title of the thread, it’s not LE 😉
