Blue, bought last year. Purchased on a dark blue leather strap but bought a bracelet. Not been back on the leather since. Highly recommended.

Gorgeous - did you get the bracelet brush after the purchase? Or is there one fully brushed available?

The bracelet on the Skyfall (and the rest of the first gen cal. 8500 Aqua Terras) have brushed bracelets. They started polishing the center links when the AT was upgraded to the 'Master Co-Ax' generation and have done it ever since.

Not sure if that's true - the Omega website for the "latest" edition seem to have polished center links...

Yes. All the models from the Master Co-Axial to the current Master Chronometer ones have polished center links.

Here’s my “opaline” (aka white) dial 38.5 AT 8500. Obviously a less popular choice than the dark dial variants, but I already had too many black and blue dials in my watch box.

FWIW, my AT came on a fully brushed bracelet. It seems like the polished center links started at the same time that the dials switched from “Co-Axial” to “Master Co-Axial” labeling. I prefer the full brushed look, and the bracelet was a big part of the reason I chose this particular piece over the then new Master version.

Is that the 38 or 41mm variant?

Is that the leather or rubber strap? I've got the leather but the rubber looks great too. Congratulations on your new luxury watch. You'll love it and will spend a great deal of time looking at your wrist!! I know I do. My wrist obviously!! Just double checked and it's clearly the rubber strap. Great choice. A little too brave for me. Mine will be an everyday yet quite formal wear. Leather or bracelet for me. Do try the bracelet if you can. A totally different watch yet still awesome.

Would you happen to know what's the height of the watch? I wonder if the 38mm is shorter? I don't like watches that are too chunky. Thanks!

I don't sorry, it arrives tomorrow. Maybe someone on here knows, otherwise I'll try to measure it tomorrow for you when it arrives.

Great, thanks. It always annoyed me when checking out Omega's website as they don't include the thickness of their watches.

Here is mine 2502.33 it’s the 42mm but I think it wears small. My sub seems to wear larger, but I like the fit
