Enjoy it. Thanks for sharing. Vte
i have to say every time some new post about these new Trilogy watches, my first thought is a vintage watch but it's the new one. Therefore, Omega really did a great job recreating them. By the way, is the leather NATO strap come with the watch? Do you see it being a little wide? Rgds Raymond
... it is an additional Omega Nato strap I got with the Railmaster, and it is 20mm though the lugs only tolerate 19 😬 But it supports the bubblicious appearance 😎😂 Cheers Henrik
. . . plus a couple of us have ordered the Trilogy. Who else . . . . . . is going to succumb?
