Reply With Quotenice copy. congrats.
After the thread I posted about my photography being crap, I took some tips and managed to get a couple of decent shots. I'm still working on a good wrist shot but for now enjoy the only 2 pictures that came out well. I'm working on some better ones.
First impressions; I didn't think the yellow would work that well but it really does. It's the most polished/shiny watch I've owned and I'm constantly worried about marking it!
The bracelet is comfortable but the Planet Ocean bracelet clasp is a much better design. Much easier to push 2 buttons and have the whole thing undone instead of pushing the buttons and having only half of it undo.
I usually go for bigger watches but at 41.5mm this in my opinion is the perfect size to wear with a shirt/suit and as it's not thick, it fits under the cuff nicely.
So far over the last few days it's been keeping near perfect time, +/- 0 seconds per day!
nice copy. congrats.
Discreet yet different enough to stand out and perfect size, will always be a conversation piece, very nice!
These watches that continue to push the boundaries are always impressive. I considered one, but already have the Skyfall AT.
I still think they should have called it the Bumblebee :)
Omega Hornet ;)
It's just a matter of time...
Windsock.
I think I'd need to see it in person.

I like it!
Interesting that Rolex wouldn't accommodate a date window on the Milgauss due to it potentially disrupting the flux capacitor inside, yet Omega seem to have managed it.
Lack of date function does sometimes irritate me when I wear my GV.
Very nice copy ;-)
very nice indeed!
The Omeg Doesn't have a flux capacitor - or a Farady cage, for that matter ;).Originally Posted by j0hnbarker
The most interesting AT variant IMO, although I do wonder why they didn't resurrect the Railmaster name, which as many will know, would be very apt.
...but what do I know; I don't even like watches!
That explains it. I thought they'd put a Faraday Cage in the Omega too ;)
Congrats on a really beautifull Watch.
I´ve considered it my self.
Wow. It's the first time I've seen 'real' pics with the copy. :))
Looks really good. I'm really anxious to see how it performs in the long run.
Congrats for buying it. It's a really nice piece.
I tried one of these recently with a view to buy after really falling for the release photos. Wasn't that keen on the yellow and black hand in the flesh though.
Again it looks great in your photos, but I don't think I'd be able to live with it.

I don't think much of the second hand colour scheme either, but I suppose they had to find a way of making it stand out a bit from standard seamasters.
Yes... I like the look of it, but the bumblebee hand seems to detract from it a bit.
I would think any purchaser of this watch would be so because they're attracted to the seconds hand.
If they weren't, I guess they could go for a regular version.
So, why all the negativity on a new arrival thread?
Amen to that... it's a beauty!
No negativity from me; the barber pole is the bit I like least about the watch, but I still like it!
Very nice.
You have good reason to enjoy.
I really like the colour of second hand.
Looks great!
I really liked the press release photos and seeing "real world" photos hasn't changed my opinion one iota, it's lovely. Enjoy it in good health.
Agree, bit of a shame they've gone for such an ostentatious design.

Very nice.. like the second hand

It's interesting that Omega also decided to do something different with the second hand, just like the lightning bolt on the Milgauss.
Can anyone get a one minute exposure picture of this watch? That would look great.

I'll give it a go when I've got some time this week.
This is stunning! And it is not a Milgauss copy, IMHO! Wear it in good health!
Looks great, congrats!
I'd like to try one of these in a year or two when they are more readily available second hand.
I think Omega win on technology but Rolex still have it for looks with the Milgauss.
My Milgauss copy looks like this:
(Anti-magnetic to 80,000 A/m - or 1,000 Gauss - just like the Rolex Milgauss. Of course the Omega "copy" can withstand 15 times that magnetic flux density, or 15,000 Gauss.)
Also not a milgauss copy, IMHO, but anti-magnetic and stunning watch, too!My Milgauss copy looks like this:

I loved that watch from the moment I read the test in the German Chronos magazine, bumblebee hand and all!
Rather have this than a Milgauss (of which I owned two).
Daddel.
Got a new watch, divers watch it is, had to drown the bastard to get it!
I agree with this, how is it a Milgauss copy?? Lovely watch and I really rate the bumblebee hand!
Nice true Anti-Magnetic Omega!
