Solid red gold PO

Opinions on this gold monster?
I found one at a great price but I really haven't seen a single screenshot online besides this video! Also, I heard a few bad things about the 3313 mvt, is it not that reliable? Opinions?

I’m all for gold watches! But for me this dial is too busy, would be better off without the chrono

I like the newer version with bicompax subdials and 6:00 date. Of course I happen to own one, albeit in stainless. It was my first nice timepiece and I still wear it all the time. It’s pretty thick and weighty, especially on bracelet. In fact the best upgrade I made to it was getting a micro-adjust clasp. I imagine the gold version would be even more top heavy than steel so keep that in mind.

I agree with this. It's a stunning watch, but a bit too much going on and so much contrast everywhere you look. Non-chrono would be much cleaner.

That thing is a beast! Not sure I would get a piece like that in gold to be honest.

holy hell that thing is awesome. doesn't quite pass for a dress watch to me (which is a cool bonus personally)
i picked up this thing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7VfPTNfRG8
and i think the color contrast is similar, and amazing

haven't heard about the movement, but i guess i'd be surprised that any omega mvmt has issues

I have the latest version but it's on leather strap. They don't offer it on solid strap anymore but I have been thinking of purchasing one from the previous version not sure if it fits though
