Belated Incoming....And I got it Tuesday

I honesty had NO intention on buying a watch but this presented itself and I showed no willpower. I got a SS bracelet and a Snoopy strap as well so this watch will have four different looks (actually 3 for me I dislike Natos). Absolutely thrilled with it!!!! I can't get over how much I'm enjoying. Also, a shoutout to my NY bros- Seth and Chadri for some enabling and advice!

Very nice , tried & tried to like omega over the years . Had a couple of late 70s -early 80s speedmasters , Seamaster 2254s , POs , GMTs but always flipped them . But maybe it's my age ,as I've really got into speedmasters again lately & think you've got a real beauty there

The lugs are 20mm and I believe the strap tapers down to 18mm.

Hope that helps!
