My 'can't afford a vintage PN Daytona'
Can't afford and even more 'couldn't convince myself to pay that much for a PN, Paying over 100K I expect at least something complicated and 1000 times better finished like a for examplePatek, Lange and some others
That aside ... This LE Omega CK2998 is a pretty cool watch And it does remind me to a Daytona PN, but in a good way ... It's not s silly 'hommage' For a few extra pictures ... Over to the Omega forum https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=613932

That's a cracking watch and it's interesting that they offered it in this new colourway at this year's Baselworld. Did you get a discount on it? lol. Huge congrats. Enjoy it in the best of health.

I’ve never regarded the Daytona as better than a speedy. Not for a solitary minute. |

The red hand is just incredible, this and the Alaska Project are two of the best speedy dial variations in my opinion.

Speedmaster has way more important history than the Daytona. If anything, Speedmaster is superior in all respects other than resell. |

No comparison or which is superior
This watch is simply gorgeous Having owned it for about month I can tell you this watch is just plain fun The classic configuration and color way with accents and pop of color while being in a compact case it's versatile and no issues with "under the cuff" Dil lena It's as if all the things watch nerds love in one piece with enough classic and quirky thrown in the mix The watch also looks upscale with polish and gleaming ligh everywhere on the face of the watch with anti reflective coating under the sapphire which has a domed look And it's a manual wind...smooth winding action...mmmmm |

Awesome watch bro. I'm glad I found a post of this watch I had just committed to 116500LN Daytona for 19k and I saw this on the Omega website during the week and went today to buy one and they were sold out... I figured I could buy this watch and the remaining budget look for a deep sea blue...
This Omega watch is just awesome it reminds me of my tag heuer monaco cal 12 blue not an expensive piece but gives the same old school racing vibe. Congrats again on this awesome watch I look forward to purchasing one soon. |
