My second Omega .... Blown away!

Words cannot describe the beauty of this watch. I'm still pinching myself and picking up my jaw from the floor everytime I look at it.

I am still stoked and have the major butterflies after picking this up. I didn't imagine I would actually go through with it but I did. Walked into the local AD and after I saw it...BAM...It was love at first sight and then said to myself..."Dam, shouldn't have come in here" LOL.



Did I mention I'm still picking up my jaw from the floor.....

Enjoy the eye candy cause there is ALOT of it below :)

That's a beauty! Doesn't seem as thick as I thought it would be. I need to head to the boutique to check it out.

Outstanding.

I think it's one of the better re-releases Omega
has done.
Love my original MKII.

Some of the best pictures I've seen of any watch and that Omega is a true stunner.

Gorgeous watch! I saw it through the window at European yesterday but it was too big and not blue or I would have gone in to try it on. LOL I've gotten a watch & some other pieces from L'Oro.. Nice folks. :-)

Enjoy!

Great pictures of a beautiful piece. I have both reissues, and like them both, but the gray dial is a stunner. It looks especially nice in bright sunlight.

Beautiful, congrats. I am the same way with my DSSD right now. My next purchase will likely be a gently used Omega like this or maybe a Mont Blanc or another Nomos.

Awesome, I want one!

Been thinking about one of these or a Tudor Heritage Chrono, but I think the Omega is the winner.
