Icon19 First Omega.
Have had my eyes on this particular piece for well over a year now. Just when it was about to be purchased, another watch would always interfere. This is my first Omega.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Being this is my first Omega a few things I noticed are that Omega does an absolutely outstanding job with presentation. The box and paperwork are first class. Really makes the watch look and feel special. The fact that you can look up the Master Chronometer, and power specs for your exact watch are great. The watch itself is of very high fit and finish with exacting details. I will note that the rotating bezel is a bit tight (not easy to grasp) compared to my Sub and Pelagos. Maybe it's the newness? Of course I don't really use the rotating bezel, so it really isn't a big deal.

Congrats. That’s such a great reference. I have been tempted to pick one up.
