Congrats. Love the dial but I found it too thick and top heavy for my wrist, but it is a great reference. Enjoy!

disappointingly, was away on a business trip in africa (very humid at this time of year) and the dial got a huge amount of condensation inside. off to the dealer today.

Picked up replacement today. Omega did not state to my dealer what the problem was with the original unfortunately.

Back on my wrist :-)
