Glad I made it... and finally CK2998 “club” member :-)
My colleague next to me has the first re-issue, and I got the 2nd, Pulsometer black version. Since it’s “Pulso”, racing look of the strap didn’t feel right, so I changed it.... great size, execution. They say this is “re-issue”, but this is completely new...
This is a very nice one. Congrats
your sheet in background reminds me my first career.
Congrats Ken! I like the black model more.
Just my preference. Seems like a great club to be in, with either color!
That was my reaction when I saw this ‘Black” and “Pulsometer” version. I have liked Pulsometer for a long time.......
... as it looks more practical (?) than Tachymeter which I don’t know when to use (I don’t even own a car!). Yup, thanks. With the replica of NASA Velcro strata, this is really my favorite! Ken
Thanks! This Speedy CK2998 is a really nice one...
... I found from Omega in a while. Love it! Ken
Thanks! My colleague is quite happy with CK2998 2016 blue one...
... while I am extremely happy with black pulsometer.... wonderful watches indeed! So well made. When worn accuracy is soooo good, too! Ken
Congrats Ken!
Now you are making me really think hard whether I should get the black too. They are both nice looking! cheers fernando ...
Surely, each of them is good/ excellent!
You won’t regret it. I know you want them both ) Ken
Sweet Speedy, Ken! And if anyone should own one . . .
. . . it would be the guy who wrote the seminal review on the 105.003s NASA issued to our astronauts. I don't think you fully realize how influential that article was . . . Omega forums around the 'net were buzzing about it. Thrilled, Art
That was the best time for me here with lots of passion and energy. But probably the last one.... God, I miss the good old days!
Dear Art, You mean this, right? I want everyone to read this again, too.... Last time I checked long time ago, it was viewed by around 40K, wow. That was a great experience. Thanks again for reminding me of this article - I myself had forgotten about thi...
Fully agree with Art on that article..
One of the best I’ve ever read here, Ken. Congrats on your CK Best, Echi
Thank you very much, Echi!
Would really love to be useful for guys like you going forward! Ken
congratulations! very nice catch!
this black version is super cool! your pictures really want to make me want to add one.... if there is a bracelet made by omega that fits this one then I may be in trouble...
Well, the Velcro is not Omega, but....
..... precise replica of what NASA provided the astronauts with Speedmaster.... ). Good enough? Metal bracelets may be good. Would love to see one, if Omega came up with something! Ken
Black strap you have is very cool!
This looks very cool to me : Pic: slw (on instagram) ...
At omega?
Your speedy would look amazing with that bracelet.... in my opinion that is...
Congratulations Ken! The Pulsometer is gorgeous:
the grained silvery dial, the blackened hands and indexes in contrast with the white painted small hands on the subdials are simply... beautiful! Bravo! massi
Thanks Massi!
off-white/ black combination is very nice + red chrono second hand...... Legibility in the dark place is not top ranked, but nothing you need to be concerned. Thank you!
