Omega

As with most new watches, the new Speedmaster Chronoscope received mixed reviews. I feel this watch has more Pros than Cons. Pros: -Manual new movement, 60Hr PR, with hacking seconds and quick Hour adjustments -comfortable new bracelet with adjustable 2.3...  

Can’t wait to see these in person. Kent

Hope you can see it soon. Thanks 🙏🏻

Out of all the iterations of this model, I would have chosen this panda configuration too. I forget: is the bezel ceramic with liquid metal? Wear it in good health

Only the Bronze Gold version has ceramic bezel. The other SS models all has aluminum bezel.

How is the prints on the dial at the crossover? I’m going to take some macro shots of the overlapping numbers and see how it is on the Omega.

So please don’t ‘put me on the spot’ like that 🤣

...for quite a while. Very nice : )

It is a sign of fatigue or new decision makers, designers just want quick results…not really passionate like the past.

All are nice. I like the functionality of the chronoscope. One can time the distance of a thunderstorm from the flash and thunderclap time differences. Very useful feature when in the forest or hiking.

Hopefully both me and watch will survive, lol…. Let me ask a stupid or wild question….I wonder, if someone farts, I start the Chrono and stops when I smell it, what does this measure 😅🤣?

I think it will diffuse throughout room and hard to find out who did it. It is usually those with high fibre diets that fart the most. Heeeheehee

That's my issue with this watch, it's a classic dial in a speedmaster case which simply doesn't match. They're just using the speedmaster for everything. It feels like the higher ups at Omega were too scared to try something new. I'm positive they have en... 

It was not popular so why would they repeat that?

In a WG case with black dial in their Museum collection.

My favorite part of the watch is the telemtre function…I would actually use that on my boat to calculate storm distances.

It wil add more please owning the watch.

I have looked at the various versions of the new Chronoscope and came to the same conclusion. The silver dial and blue markers looks good but the version that you went for is superb with the red detail.

Most blogs and reviews seems to forget this version, and I think it’s all marketing but I like it. The racing strap version is stunning so I asked to order that same strap when available.

My thoughts were to have a racing strap made for it.

This Panda version is great and a sleeper. Looking forward to seeing yours too.

Did you get the leather strap as well?

I was deciding between the bracelet or strap version but they only have the bracelet and you know that feeling, not wanting to wait once you know you can get it immediately. The difference is only $200 and I don’t have this new Nixon bracelet so I went fo... 

Thank you for adding the thickness, which is the detail I'm interested the most. It seems wearable, a good balance between a speed and a vintage chrono, without falling into the annoying (for me) re-edition of the old good times. Is there open back?

Watch is light and the details are very nicely done. Yes this has a wide open back with 3/4 plate, a first for Omega.

Why release a new watch but let collectors wait for months before they can get their hands on one? They are not Rolex, haha…..Can’t get Rolex any this year so shifting my focus 😅😜

. . . steel Subs, Explorers, and Daytonas in their display case. 😳 He rushed over. There was a sign in small print that read, "For display purposes only". 😡 "What's the deal?", he asks the saleslady. "I want that Sub. Why can't you sell it to me?" (nervou... 

I just don’t get what they (Rolex) strategy is but I’m clueless anyways.

. . . he moves fast.

Also just watched the long waited movie this event…enjoyed it 👍🏻 ...  

To pickup a Daytona for $13,150.

. . . for $13K. ...  

I saw this in person yesterday. (My AD tempted me with another beauty.) This one could be my next watch, since I don't have a Speedy. I like the blue too, but this panda red/white/black colorway offers a lot of eye candy. Wear it in good health and enjoy!... 

All versions look great and it’s hard to choose but I’m sure each version has their fans. These should be available and not be tempted to add another watch to get one. Thanks and hope you get it soon.

Had a chance to see the white/silver dial last week but was not convinced as I did not have much time to spend with it. I still would have preferred if Omega put this dial and movement in a Deville reference as I believe it would have boosted the Deville ... 

I think Omega knows the DeVille didn’t do well and as with the Museum collection for the chronoscope dial so they made this choice. True about the winding, because they are no sound or click feedback like a manual which I prefer, not sure why this movemen... 

As for not having success with the Deville, Museum, or other line...well how can Omegs change that around? They have to either make a choice of taking risks with this piece in the Deville line to boost attention or DROP the Deville and other lines which d... 

Tell me any watch or thing that will make everyone happy, it is non existent nowadays. People just like to complain and have opinions and that is perfectly ok with me. I take the other sides reviews and opinions to help me make a decision but ultimately i... 

What a nice collection you have!

I see you are a huge fan of this NTTD SM300, great choice 👍🏻 ...
