    It’s a cracker! When I asked my AD about availability at Xmas, Omega replied that both steel models were sold out

    Thick lugs in my eyes, a slight taper would have done it a favour.

    Good point!

    I received an email from Omega this morning and incorrectly thought they were a new new release.

    Probably a case of new LE release fatigue on my part.

    If they are all sold out it seems rather strange that Omega Sent out an email about them on the 16 March.....

    Apologies, all pre-allocated on their waiting lists was actually what he said. Not sure they are actually available yet

    Not if it wanted to look like the watch it is supposedly based on, the Fat Lug SM.

    I mostly like it but the case back design is horrid. I had one in hand last year and the case size is well judged. The original was 35mm

    Bezel/case thickness and chunky lugs are killing this one for me I'm afraid.

    Agreed, the mugs are huge. Otherwise it’s quite attractive
