Looks great! As I mentioned, my brother bought his about 9 months ago and I'm still impressed every time I see it.

Great history and from what I've seen it's very robust and durable. It's not water proof so keep that in mind but otherwise a fine reference. Wear it in good health.

Not really, as it appears to be similar to a rolex date model with no cyclops. I would need to place it beside my jc1 for better comparison.

Thanks Mark. Seems to have same wr as daytona... 100 meters, although due to leather strap it most likely won't go near water. Rolex tends to use wp and wr in same spec on website? Good marketing I guess. I was disappointed with omegas 50m rating on their co axial race line. Plus they didn't offer contrasting subdials and unique style. Maybe one day I'll add one but appears omega gives more attention to their moon watches lately. For race inspired chronos, the monaco is my current fave.
