New Speedmaster Racing

Just wanted to share a pic of my recent acquisition. My first Omega. Very happy with it so far. Will post some thoughts once I get some more wrist time with it. Let me know if you have questions. Cheers!

Good looking watch! Looks really comfortable on the rubber strap.

Icon6 Congratz!

Love the dial and color combo, plus the newer movement under the hood and it's 40mm.

DC Gator- Yes, its surprisingly compact. Wears almost like a 39. Great for me since I have a small wrist. I love the big moon watches....but a bit large on me. This one sits great.

I like rubber straps. This one is not as "soft" as others I have, but clearly well made, and I am assuming it is going to break in nicely over time.

That's the one I would get if I were looking at adding one like this. Nice photo skills also, I'm envious.

I love that model, I've been over the blue dial with the black sub-dial watch for a while

That blue dial is a beauty. What would one consider a good price for that piece?
