Omega couldn't have picked a better name for this model! Everything about this watch is class.

The co-axial movement is a major advancement in watch movements and from what I have researched, is very accurate, reliable and need less maintenance than the lever escapement.

My observations:
The watch wears heavy on the wrist, even with the 42mm model
The bracelet cannot be adjusted to finite comfort on the wrist
If you are not fussy about the watch or bracelet getting scratched, OK. If you are pedantic about your watches, then you should get a polishing kit as you will need one for this model. The metal scratches easy.
In any case if you are a man of action you'd be better off with a strap
Keeper, do not sell as you will lose, big time.

lovely appearance
great dial
fantastic depth rating
co-axial movement
a must buy for Omegaphiles
discounts can be had if one shops around enough
