Hmm [emoji848] something is missing…

I know
It needs more sh!t on the dial. [emoji106]

I agree with you there Brice.
It's a definite NO from me. Way too busy with tiny circular scales that no one would ever use. Yet another Omega gimmick thrown onto a watch that doesn't need gimmicks added.

Not my type of watch but I actually quite like that one. The case back looks really good.

Not at work today, nice long weekend

I thought it was LED too. Well it's certainly different. I suppose you could get a personalised engraving on the top too.

Now you've got to learn how to use a circular slide rule Greg
Great history in that watch

Felt I had to open up today's proceedings as I have a new arrival...

Cosmonaute 809 circa 1965...

Nice one Greg That's a busy dial for sure

U1 this week.

Really nice collection you have there Matt. I was trying to pick a favourite from them but couldn't decide as they are all so nice.

Congrats Matt, that's a real beauty and definitely a nicer blue than than the standard Pelagos blue

Public holiday here so another short work week

I really like it but I wouldn't wear it. I do wear a pink t shirt though

Steinhart Ocean GMT this week.

New strap from Liger straps on my Speedy pro.

I like it a lot. I wonder how much of a knock it would take to mark the bioceramic case. Is it anywhere near as hard as steel?
I've stopped wearing some of my more expensive watches to work for fear of damaging them but those Moonswatches would be a nice beater.

That's really nice. Pity the GMT hand looks like a shovel but maybe that was intentional I'd definitely be happy to wear it

Just been reading the story behind that watch on their website, very cool. Looking forward to seeing your pics of it

I quite like the black dial one but the slanting logo is a bit off putting and the big triangles at 3 & 9 look odd when we are used to seeing a triangle at the 12 point.

You're all wearing great looking watches today gents
It's the Helson Tortuga for me this week.

It's Beer O'clock
