Incoming - New Omega Speedmaster Moonshine Panda!
Picked this up yesterday at the Omega Boutique!
I was initially looking for a Rolex Day Date, and when en route I thought I would pop over to the zone ha Boutique. I shared with the Sales Rep I’m looking for a precious metal piece to celebrate a new role at work. I first tried on the Moonshine Speedmaster with Dark Green Dial. It was great and the only one in stock, but I didn’t love it for some reason. The Boutique Director noticed and asked if I have seen the “Speedmaster Moonshine Panda” and pulled it out on the rubber strap. Immediately loved the gold dial, sunburst Chrono dials, black ceramic bezel, and the paler moonshine gold. They had none in stuck w/ bracelet, so had to order one. Came in yesterday, tried it on and immediately decided I loved it more than a Day Date. To me this piece feels like the the right blend of sporty and elegant, a little less “blingy” than other precious metal watches - but still elevated and special, and the dial, bracelet and movement are superb! No discounts at Boutique, but they threw in some extras like the massive Omega history book, a two watch travel case, etc. I also couldn’t find any below MSRP on Chrono24 or online that were in stock, which I thought was interesting and surprising. Overall, pumped and loving my new speedy! P.S. I loved the rubber strap but reminded too much of a Daytona on Oysterflex and this bracelet is stunning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Beautiful watch. May I ask why you didn't like the green dial?

Many thanks, all! The Green Dial was beautiful, but a little dark for me. Also, a friend bought both and I asked him which does he wear more and he said while he started off loving the Green dial, over time he is more and more drawn to wearing his panda. Finally, I just personally just liked the panda dial more - it’s fun, different, and just feels timeless to me… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
