Icon20 Incoming Green

I've been thinking about getting one of these watches since 2018, and finally pulled the trigger
Excuse the stickers, I haven't finished taking them off.

Nice Omega

I'm not familiar with the model. Will you tell us more about it?

David, great looking watch ! Nice to see something other than a black dial.

Does it have the usual Omega clasp?

It's very similar to the regular clasp, but in addition, has a sort of glide lock mechanism that is similar to one on a submariner bracelet.

That's awesome! I love the rising sun, and would have picked one up myself, but prices were just too high for me right now.

Yeah, I probably paid over the odds - but I had to have it.

Congrats again.

Great looking Speedmaster. I really like the green. And the RG is enough for great looks but not over the top. You are lucky to get one of these. They are hard to find (right now unavailable in fact) even in Japan.

I have a chance to buy a Tokyo Seamatster with with white dial/blue bezel. I might go for it, but not sure its the Omega that I want. Too many nice Omega watches to choose from.

Yes, I was in Japan when they were, and mistakenly left without one then.

Get the Seamaster if you can, it's a great looking watch.

I've since moved on from this watch, but here was the last picture I took with it on before letting it go.
