You will not be dissapointed, it is an amazing watch, after 7 months of owning it, I still keep looking at the detail in it, its mesmerizing. The orange is no where near as in your face as people think, especially if on a bracelet or strap. It could be a bit much on orange rubber though..

Liquid Metal looks amazing..

I'm in.



My limited photographic skills do no justice to this watch.

Ok, I have to have one. I guess Jared is the place to buy this watch? Any suggestions? Are they hard to get right now? Expected price?

I doubt that Jared would have them. Omega has restricted them to Boutiques and a few select dealers. The MSRP was $5700 before the last price hike.

Production is limited to 1948 pieces and is now well into the 1000s. They are becoming quite difficult to find in stock.

Nice photo!

It shows how the crystal seems to disappear with the double AR coating.

Welcome to the club.

Bought it from Omega Chadstone Melbourne last month. Only 2 arrived. 9 people enquired. The reason I got one was because I was the first one to come in and put a deposit on it. First come first serve basis.

What an amazing watch. I wish I had a place for it in my collection. Next up is the SubC for me. I don't think I can justify having both...

That is one fantastic looking watch, always liked the PO since I saw it in Casino Royale. Seems like its more a glossy gray color rather than the regular POs black which I prefer.

Is this the limited edition that came out last year or the year before? I thought new ones have long been sold out?! How much was it bought for?

Yes they came out in about october 2009 but the last batch of 1948 was released around last month and I believe they started from number 900 to 1948 . any information would be helpfull

Thanks for clarifying that. I didn't realised they released it in batches.

Congratulations
I resigned. Once Omega announced that they would be moving towards the LM bezel as standard I sold out.
