A few clues...

On theme for this forum
An absolute classic
Had two before, different colours
Loved one, sold both, regret it
Works best with brighter dials (IMO)
Best on its bracelet (IMO) which makes it a beast
The movement is now updated
Fully in-house movement
Good value
This is a special edition which has one of the main features of the originals

I won't be selling this one on!!!!

Should be here this week.

Nice! I like the dial on that one. Is it commemorating some Arctic or Antarctic expedition?

I gave my old OM to a friend who had to sell his watches during a hard time. I miss it but he still has it and loves it.

That was a nice gesture, Roger. Also nice that he still had it.

Well that was short lived!

It was the last in stock and it failed it's pre delivery quality check.

No more stock 'till Christmas..

I said I wasn't buying anymore without letting one go, so I was kinda cheating. I wasn't sure as I hit "buy" so I'm taking this as an omen and not looking elsewhere...
