Added an Omega...
Haven’t had an Omega for many years, but a local offer was too good to be true.

Delighted!

I have to admit as a huge Rolex fan, that in my opinion the packaging is much more ‘special’... the watch itself is outstanding and looking forward to taking some better pictures soon including the incredible movement through the sapphire case back.

Not the purists choice I know, but definitely my choice!

Nicely done - looks great on straps and NATO’s too. A great watch and I think I’d go for sapphire too.

First off, congrats on the new piece!! I recently got a similar watch, a 3572.50 aka the hesalite sandwich.
Secondly, your choice is the only choice that matters when it comes to your own collection, enjoy it!! Also you may not be one to have a bunch of straps for different moods, but you potentially have a LOT of choices with arguably the KING of all 20mm strap monsters!!
