Moonpase Finally.... Incoming

Great transaction with Greg AKA Mosco below are some shots I happen to be wearing my Sub to the office when the Omega came in so I did a side by side this piece has a very nice wrist presence and the new bracelet with the micro adjustment is a fantastic upgrade!

Does the new bracelet come standard with the adjustable clasp similar to the 300 and new POs?

Yes, the adjustable clasp is standard on the bracelet for this watch. I'm fairly certain (not quite 100% sure) that the soon to be released Speedmaster Racing lines will also have the same bracelet with adjustable clasp standard as well.

Thank you! That clasp makes a world of difference for me. I really like this watch.

Can you get the blue Moonphase with a bracelet? The website only shows a blue strap.

Ive seen the blue at 2 different AD's and its only been on leather where the black is on both leather and bracelet. I purchased the leather strap and deployment buckle because mine came on the bracelet and I like having both.

I own the blue dial version and was told by the AD it only comes on the blue leather strap. Bracelet can be purchased separately.

Wow. That Omage moonphase is quite large. Made the sub looks like a lady's watch. Btw, you pull it off quite well with the Omega. Not everyone can do that, especially smaller wrists.

Looks amazing huge congrats.

I love mine.

Interestingly, it looks similar in size to your sub. Bigger, sure, but not by much.

Looks great on the bracelet.

That's the Everest leather that uses the Rolex clasp.
