Omega

A few days ago I visited the Omega boutique just to try something but I ended up finding a watch that I have seen already at Basel World 2017 (the year just before Omega announced that it will no longer be part of it, and the rest is history) the OMEGA Sp...  

Personally, I always love a good Speedmaster and this one looks very good on your wrist. Many thanks for your interesting and thoughtful post. Enjoy !

wear it in great health!

Quite surprised this is still available...are they hiding this in their safe?

and not displayed or made available to all clients (or so I was told!). It was an order for a client that didn't take delivery. Even with 272 is still pretty rare I think, the gorgeous moonshine gold you have was 1014 right ? I regret not getting that one... 

Yes, perhaps not for our “Omega purists” but for sure a gorgeous, surprising piece. I like the color combination as well as its presence. Not too much but still a watch not to be overseen. It fits you very well and looks definitely very nice on your wrist... 

flash/wearability so I decided to go with the much less limited but also gorgeous steel one. I think this is not as flashy because of the strap but indeed still has a strong presence.

there's a Speedmaster I don't like . It's tastefully executed and, unsurprisingly, fits you exceedingly well. Sincere congratulations, and thank you for the high quality pictures! Cheers, Filip

but perhaps it was destiny to get one in the end. I have to agree that I also like pretty much all speedmasters, glad to be blassed with a good selection of them. May be the Omega Speedmasters will always have a special place on my collection and wrist

high horology wristwatch I had ever purchased, and when you add to that its objective significance in the world of watchmaking, it will always hold a very special place in my heart as well . My favorite version is still the 35th Anniversary Apollo-Soyuz w...

I didn't expect the boutique to have one hidden ...

I saw the steel version, but this is really cool and elegant.

both charming in their own way

A stuning watch now much more sought after. At release it was considered expensive by many collectors but the sedna gold and special titanium case makes it really very special.

... Speedmasters which is really undeserved because it is a wonderful watch with many attractive features on its design... and full gold. The dial and caseback are real works of art and it remembers the Last Man on the Moon: Captain Eugene Cernan. May be ...  

I agree that 272 is still very limited. Even the full gold Moonshine was 1014 and also sold out pretty quickly! Like you I appreciate the combination of blue ceramic, gold and the caseback is truly special. The gold apollo and the moon on the dial are als... 

Regarding photography I´m amazed to know you get these awesome shots with your I Phone!! It confirms once again that in photography is more important the photographer than his equipment! Keep enjoying so much! Best cordial regards, Abel
