Incoming: Omega Gray Side of the Moon

Just purchase an Omega Gray Side of the Moon. I have been looking at the ceramic Omega's since the introduction of the Dark Side of the Moon and found the Gray to be to my liking. I have previously owned the Speedmaster 9300 in steel and the 42mm Speedmaster and moved both of those watches based on the fit with the metal bands. With the Gray Side there is no real weight to the watch and the alligator band fits great. I love the look and will see how it fits into my collection.

Congrats. I've looked at this watch and absolutely love it. I think it will become a classic for Omega. I'm very close to pulling the trigger on this one as well. Would love to hear more about your experience with it.

Very nice! Congrats! I've noticed these have been disappearing from the FS section. Seems like folks are snapping them up.

Congrats.

Mine says hi! Congrats!

It's so totally different in person than any pictures I've ever seen or been able to capture myself. Now just need to add the Black Black at some point since my only black watch is a pvd cheapo.

One of my favorite watches in my stable. Congrats on a great choice. Only variation of Dark Side I'd consider would be the Pitch Black.

Love it. I agree it's a completely different watch in person, and the gray croc is sweet. Congratulations!
