    I wouldn't change a single thing. Well, okay, perhaps the strap but does that really count?

    Lovely photos with lovely subject! Only WUS can tell a FOIS from a moon watch apart and this stealth is a delight

    Hesalite crystal
    lolipop seconds hand
    Lume color like the sm300
    Omega made version of the JB champion bracelet

    Would make me break down and buy a new watch at retail.

    I really don't know why we would accept your judgement on something like this with your ethics :cautious:

    I have a Sapphire Moonwatch on bracelet and that is my "beater" and I love it but the FOIS... its got everything I would change on a Moonwatch

    Alpha Hands
    Straight Lugs
    No Crown Guards
    Raised Omega Logo
    Deeper Black Semi-Gloss Dial

    And on a minimal stitch band like pictured... pure Omega perfection.

    One must ask: Is that a 19mm vintage-style strap? If so, where did you find it?

    Is the FOIS dial smaller than the normal speedy, or is the size difference just down to the crown guards on the normal speedy?

    Beautifully captured.

    I would pull the trigger and call it my "perfection" if it was equipped with a hesalite crystal...
