That Globemaster annual calendar is a design train wreck...
The GO on the other hand is spectacular!

They are taking a page from the omega book. I know, right? Red, Blue, Black, and now Bronze and Black out - with bracelet, strap and NATO options, all they need to do is add diamonds and an MOP dial option and they've have almost as many variations as Omega does on the Speedmaster!

You were right. I like it. I want it. But... I won't have it.

Robb - I like it (and that's the first time I've ever said that about a Daytona)!

Not bad but at 3000 pcs not really a LE either.

By the way, I agree that 3000 isn't limited at all, but omega has been doing this not so limited limited for ages now. I'm asking just because I'm curious if my GS would be considered limited at 1000.

I'm asking just because I'm curious if my GS would be considered limited at 1000. Yes, 1000 or less is my general thought on LE. For Omega, not only do they do much larger LE quantities, they put out LEs all the time so it makes them feel even less limited. Now that I boxed myself in, I still think the Oris Carl Brashear Limited Edition (2000 pcs) is still limited because they don't pump out 5+ LEs a year and it's honoring an individual rather than the olympics or a movie. Does that make sense?

Hey Roger and Chip!!! Was I right? Or was I right? Is everyone sitting down? I put my name on the wait list to buy one of these! It's the first chrono I love. I've been looking at them more lately and was just about to pull the trigger on a LNIB Grey Side of the Moon, but screw it, I'm going to get this instead. I'm not at the top of the list, so I'm assuming 2017, which is fine - gives me a chance to see what my next bonus is, add it to the money already in my watch fund and see then if I have to flip something or not.

Congrats Roger. White or black? White - I like that one much better. For me, the visibility (or lack there of) chrono hands have always been an issue. This one looks easy to read.
