Wow, never seen that before. Thank you.

Blue for sure. I have the 39.5mm and the dial is beautiful. I would get on the bracelet and add the rubber strap.

They both are amazing IMO. I would say that it depends what you have in your collection. Glashutte does well with the colors they put on their dials, if you’ve got mostly black dials in your collection then the blue seaq would be the one I’d pick. If you’re just starting your collection then I’d go with the black.

The black sunray finish on the SeaQ is very well done. Needs to be seen in person.

I second this. I went rubber strap but in hindsight should have gone with bracelet. I'll be adding it soon.

Not a GO but hang with me. I bought this Green SMP yesterday and not a big fan of the Omega bracelet so wanted to swap it out quick and had this one handy at home. A $25 strap from Barton and all I could think was why did I spend so much on the OEM GO one for my SeaQ. This is a great cheap alternative to give the same look for anyone looking for a change from the GO bracelet (which is miles ahead of Omega of course!).

I already added a green one for this Omega.

I paid $200 about a year and a half ago. Even worse the butterfly clasp was $590 additional.

Same here. I agree, I think they charge too much for both.

[PhilLynott]

It always looks so vibrant out in the sun then you take a pic and it never captures it right.

Such a spectacular piece in PM!!! I found a pre owned one on Topper's website I was going to try to save for, but it sold quickly. I'm super jealous!

I think this would like great with the anthracite sunburst dial as well. I know they make it in a two tone, but a full gold case would be divine.

Its a great watch everytime i wear it i wonder why i dont wear it more often. Too many watches!

[mikea]

Love the 60’s chrono pics! Any strap changes you guys have done ?

[PhilLynott]

I absolutely love the nubuck one it (or mine at least) came on. Have never once felt the need to change it from that think its a perfect match and super comfortable.

Makes sense!

This will be my first GO, excited to really get a feel for what makes them special

I have an original black G.O. alligator strap on mine in the pic I posted. At the present time I have an aftermarket grey suede strap on the watch.

Do you mind posting a current pic with the aftermarket grey strap?

Much appreciated

Before contacting your AD about the cost of the bracelet, I'd recommend a Xanax.

New limited edition release, looks cool but pricey.

[PhilLynott]

It's a cool watch but 5-6x the price of a SS panoinverse for some laser engraving and platinum seems like a tough sell for a non hype brand.
