CK2998. It's here!
Hey, Omega gang!
Happy to say my watch arrived last Friday! Super busy week, as I was fortunate enough to also get my hands on a white Daytona C, as I posted in the last few days over at the Rolex section. Being a sucker for blue, I think this one is just gorgeous. Granted, it's not a faithful rendition of the original, but rather a piece inspired by the CK2998 from the past. Regardless, the result looks so nice that I really don't mind the mere "throwback" nature of this LE. My local AD was great and I got a nice swag package as well. The cherry on top, though, was that he gave me two tickets to watch the Olympic soccer quarter-finals between Germany and Portugal as an Omega guest. Now THAT WAS AWESOME didn't wear the CK, but had my SM300 on to honor the invite. Anyways, here are some pics of it all! |

Very nice - Congrats!
This watch is killing my brain... first I liked it, then I didn't like it. Now I've been thinking about it for days/weeks which means I think I DO like it. Ugh. |

How about this brown strap (or one from original ss FOIS) for it. Thats my likely move if I'm able to secure one.

Congrats on a great week! CK2998 is stellar and I think once my 1525 bracelet arrives, it's going to be cracking. Enjoy buddy!!

Ok, hate to be too far in the weeds but some guys have stated its the 1125 bracelet, you just dropped 1525. So which is accurate when it's time for me to order one! |
