I picked up this blue beast a month ago. It is spectacular. 2nd METAS certified watch for me (Black Bay Ceramic) and the accuracy is astounding.

Are the dial technically a pair of 'bridges' ?

All these Omega's are really good looking.

Sorry but I'm not sure what you mean by 'a pair of bridges'

I think they are bridges I was looking at pictures thru the display back of your model watch. Have never seen bridges like that.

I'm curious how you knew to get that watch, what made you decide on that model ?





From Omega "the dial has been expertly skeletonised to reveal a blackened movement inside"

Bridge: A plate or bar that is mounted to the mainplate, forming a frame that houses the inner workings of a mechanical watch.

I purchased this watch because I like ceramic cased watches and Omega are one of my favourite brands. All I know about the movement is that it is the Calibre 1869 handwind movement.

Picked up some new leather shoes for my Speedy Racing! I have to say, like the Worldtimer, I prefer this watch on its band rather than the steel bracelet!

Indoor vs. outdoor pic of the Worldtimer. Inside, the dial appears matte, while outdoors, you can really pick up the "sunburst" nature of the blue dial.

(Hard to capture on an iPhone camera, though)

I like the look of these; they are thicc though!

Of the new releases, I'm personally more drawn to those new Speedmaster '57 models (albeit, I'll keep my "Racing" model)

Didn't line up for one. I'll get one for $260 as a fun watch when they show up on Swatch's online store or when I'm near a boutique in the near future!

Great to see the lines at the store in Germany.
Hope I get a chance to play with one.
Very nice product.

There are some amazing quartz watches for 2022, Bulova D-Cave, Girard Perregaux Casquette.
