Pulled the trigger on Speedmaster
After looking at them for a year now I pulled the trigger on a Speedmaster Racing (the 40mm series) with panda dial! I will post pics when it arrives.
I found a couple good deals but went with Chrono24 so I'll be backed by them in case the item is not what I expect PLUS I'll have Omega's warranty, not some company 1 year warranty like Crown and Caliber offer. If it was a used piece I'd be ok with that but not on a brand new piece :) Pics to come in a week or so! Anyone else have any experience with this watch? |

FedEx Tracking says Monday!
Also, edit: apparently I misspoke and it's a "reverse" panda. Black dial, white subs :) |

Seriously beautiful piece. This is the only shot of it so far because I can't get it sized just yet. May install a more "racing" themed strap! The crystal is awesome, looks like there's nothing there!

Nice! Congrats! That’s a really classic looking watch that can go with anything.
For straps, brown leather would be great. I have the below Hirsch Tiger that does a good job straddling the racing/classy vibe. I think it’d look great on yours as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
