You can see the blue popping in the above photo. Lovely watch. Other lights it obviously looks like a black dial.

Low Wr And a solid caseback is a little weird.

Same boat, I have the 321 but I want it. I actually got allocated one on the day of release but I got covid and could not get down and see it. I passed but will get next allocation and make a decision once I see it side by side with the Ed White. I fear that I will end up getting it too.

Thank you sir - you won’t be disappointed. I’ve previously owned the Ed white for 2.5 years and loved it, but due to changes in family life etc needed to rationalise the collection so it went as the most expensive piece.
What they are offering here for half the price is pretty great. It’s not a 321 - that has a historical significance that this watch would never have, But to all intents and purposes it’s very similar - same case, same bracelet, same finish. Slight dial, hand, bezel differences and of course the movement. The domed crystal is superb, the dial is very slightly sunburst but I like it due to the fact it’s more glossy than Matt. The alpha hands are great, but as anyone who has owned an Alfa or broad arrow piece will know the legibility in low light is not as great as the white batons - doesn’t bother me, a flick of the wrist sorts that out. Lastly, the lume. I honestly get the fautina comments, but actually it works here. Yes, it’s quite dark and in a perfect world I’d like it in the same shade as the E/W but it works really well with the dial and is no issue to me. I’ve yet to see it in daylight as when I bought it, it was beginning to get dark, so am looking forward to that. At the price of £7,400 I think this is pretty reasonable value all told. I know that it’s a lot of money and I’m not disputing that, but it’s a lot of watch too and I think will be a real good seller for Omega. When you compare what other brands are offering at the same price, it really does make a case for itself. All in all, I love it and for anyone who has less emotional attachment with the 321 movement, you can get a very similar watch at a more palatable price point. Nothing not to like here. |

Thanks mate - I picked it up from the regent street boutique today. They didn’t have any on display - by all accounts they had 3 in and all 3 gone. That said, they said they were expecting a few next week also. But expect in the short term they’ll be in and straight out.

Tried it on today. Beautiful dial. Awfully tempting but the faux patina on the lume was disappointing. White or off white woulda been fine. But it’s nearly brown.
I’ll have to make a decision soon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

The Hesalite style softly domed crystal is the icing on the cake!! As my local OB up north is not a corporate boutique I will have to show a little patience. Look forward to your daylight shots when you get chance. |
