How you liking the size and fit? I'm shocked at how comfortable this watch is. I forget it's on sometimes which is hard to believe given its size. Omega leather straps are like butter!
I never in a million years would have thought I could pull off a 44 with my skinny 6.75" wrists...but the lug to lug I think is only 50mm, which makes it possible. I had been wanting that watch for a few years, I think it was the watch that actually got me into watches, but I had never seen one in person...and man did I look. Any time I was anywhere with an Omega AD, I popped in and inquired about it. Most had never seen it before, and no one even hinted at the idea of ordering it. So when I saw it in Scottsdale, I was blown away, and although I verified the authenticity of a "cheaper" grey one online, that dial just didn't do it for me since all the meteorite ones are different. I've flipped quite a few watches in my limited time collecting, but this one is for sure a keeper. If it had better water resistance, I dare say it could be an only! The other thing I like is that it's understated and goes unnoticed, which helps it pull off multiple attires.
