Dang, I really like that. I only wish they had used a titanium case too. I don't understand why they just used Ti on the bezel. A SS laser ablated bezel would have worked too.

Have to agree with the Fratello writer. The all red second hand would be improved if it was tipped red. It's a great looking pricey watch otherwise.

I realize it’s a love hate thing… but, Im not a fan of the skeleton hands. I like the old 2254 sword hands better. Im hoping Omega remakes a 2254 with modern updates.

I LOVED the sword hands on my old SM300, but the skeletons are slowly growing on me. If they did swords again, it'd be hard to say no to.

For me the biggest barrier to getting this watch other than price is the conical helium escape valve. Albeit easier to use for the few that do, it hasn't grown on me yet. The laser etched wave dials definitely did grow on me though.
