It pains me to say this dial is winning me over from my Speedmaster. Been wearing this a lot.

WOW! What reference is that? I love that lume color. Great size too.

Thanks! Reference 270.8.54 from the early 2000s. It's the older reference because the newer ones has the white lume. It's mid-size measuring 42 x 26mm for my smaller wrist. I really like that the white dial side is all square and rectangular. The newer references has a circle for the seconds subdials which turned me off.

Apollo 11 35th dialled Speedmaster with 3861 bracelet, this is one of the best looking Omega's, imo. Although I haven't seen the new white dial model in person I believe an opaline silver dial always beats a pure white dial, at least for me. I prefer the softness over the stark.

Agreed. One of Omega's best models. It's on my list now.

I hope it's ok. It got a couple drops of rain on it.

I still maintain this is one of the most uncommon Speedies.

Work day wear (pic from yesterday), then evening wear. They both strike a chord with me, but I admit that the speedy has scratched a special itch that I didn’t know I had until hanging out with you fine folks. As an aside, going from 42mm to 33.5mm might just be 8.5mm, but they wear substantially different than that.
