That is a proper case back!

I concur with you: the case back with the beautiful sculpted sea monster is such a pleasure to look at, to touch and.. to own!

I think of it like a collectible coin. I love when the sea monster gets "engraved" in your wrist.

Also agree with the perfect proportions.

It is so good you could get a second hand one in such a mint condition.

Best regards.

René

Back at the day when I bought mine, I was very hesitant between the two sizes. But given that I have thin wrists, I decanted towards the smaller one. But your looks perfectly at home on your wrist! 👍🏼 Best regards. René

Hola mi querido amigo!

Bullet proof case, one of the best movement with the co-axial escapement, timeless style. A lovely watch indeed. Best, E. Ps: maybe one day on my wrist, but it is far from the top of the list unfortunately so it will have to wait!

Thanks for your kind comment dear Eklektik

You appreciate very well the nuances of this watch that I like so much. I understand very well that one's got to have priorities. If some day you can get one for a good price, you will enjoy it without regrets, that I can assure to you. Best regards. René... 

Hello René …

Good to see you posting. This is all the watch you need in the real world. A firm favourite with many in the military. I have a friend in the Royal Marines who wouldn’t change it for anything.

Hello dear Captain!

And thanks for the kind welcome. I've been very busy with the job, but I always find the time to take a look now and then. Your appreciation is a good one, a very complete watch for every day, with the added joy of being either a Bond watch, and the succe... 

Thank you and …

I was very tempted to get the bigger one, like yours, but being realistic, it would have seemed too big for my wrist. I had the advantage of being able to try both! Best regards. René

Marc had an orange bezel 42 mm version as well . . .

. . . many years ago, but always wanted the larger reference. Now he's a happ ier camper. As they say, "All good things come to he who waits." ;-)

Hopefully in the future…

Will add the 42mm back to the collection.

That would be wonderful!

Because each size has its own charm. Best. René

Wow, very good to hear that dear Art

The good thing of having almost the exact watch in two sizes is that you can choose the o e that fits your taste better. In fact the bigger one is the one which debuted in the first Craig's Bond movie: Casino Royale. The orange always appealed me to be th... 

Totally agree!

I fell in love with this watch as soon as Omega released it. Got one preowned, locally, shortly thereafter. It's spectacular in person, and perfectly proportioned. Here's the best part -- it has a proper caseback! ...  

That is a proper case back!
