It's a nice looking watch.
I'd like the hour hand to be a few mm shorter.

Gorgeous!

Are the Arabic minute markers in the Paris Olympic font? I can't really tell. I really love how the 300m version uses it for the date.

I'm curious how that bronze and gold alloy will patina over time.

Congrats

I picked up the CK 859 a few years ago. The bronze gold and textured dial are a great upgrade. Beautiful watch, congratulations!

Omega have been using the Bronze Gold alloy since about 2021 (so I believe....I think the Seamaster 300M Bronze Gold was the first..? ) and being an alloy of gold, copper, silver and paladium the patina should be superb; I'm expecting that it will eventually darken slightly whilst still maintaining the same bronze colour, but it's going to be a decade or two before we really know :).

I tried the watch on in the London Covent Garden boutique and wore it for a while (they are happy for folks to do so) and in my opinion it's the loveliest dress watch I've seen since for many a year; to me it's as beautiful as the truly gorgous Patek 6119R Calatrave... and that's saying something.

The strap is lovely but from the writing it's not OEM; where's it from, and did you buy the clasp from Omega?

That is correct the strap I had it made by Aaron Bespoke and the deloyant i did bought it from Omega directly but that’s the Sedna gold since they don’t sell bronze gold deployant.
