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 model...
Have a great week!
Ken

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
At omega?

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!
