    I think Norm has one of these in the large size Scarab that looks awesome, like in an Ernst Stavro Blofeld kind of way, and every time I see one of these I think oh wow those lugs are so damn cool... and I have to have it and then its 22mm...

    How hard is it to be a Bond Villain...

    If you like the watch, but can't wear it.
    I would just give it to the wife or girlfriend, and stare at the watch all the time.:whistling:

    I dont have one of those, hence why I’m still able to buy watches whenever I feel like it :coffee:

    I had one of these and it really isn't as bad as the 22mm makes it out. Due to the case shape it wears a bit like a contemporary tank style Omega.

    @tdn-dk has it now and I'd be forever grateful if he would take a photo of it whilst wearing it as he has slightly larger wrists than me :D

    That being said... Isn't the one in the link the big one? I don't think that the small one was made with sub-seconds and there shouldn't be a cut-out for the crown. Still a redial, though.

    I do not believe that dial is correct.

    BTW, this MSN guy has few of the large :rolleyes:

    I came in touch with this watch just this weekend. Still trying to get more details - and pics- and to see if the owner might part with it. If you’d potentially be interested please let me know. I believe it’s around 34/35mm.

    Once in a very rare while it's nice to be the skinny bastard.
