Totally spur of the moment purchase while on vacation here in Tokyo...

Kinja'd!!!

2015 Omega Speedmaster Racing Chronograph

Ref. 326.30.40.50.03.001

This model incorporated their new Co-axial movement, which while covered with a metal case backing, is absolutely beautiful.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

I’m head over heels in love.

Love it. I had a longer response typed out but it got Kinja’d. Omega next for me after Tag abused me for a repair. Kinda unrelated but I like the new Tag branding move on Renault F1 power units. Makes sense, good marketing, unlike say Star Wars the force awakens bag of tangerines.

I’m not a watch guy. I used to rock a Timex Ironman with Indiglo until I had a phone with me 24/7. Is this a special model you can only get in Japan?

Wow very nice watch. Now I want something I didn’t even know existed. I’ve really tapered my watch buying, but I may need to get a new one.

I am sad. Still, that’s a gorgeous Speedmaster. I love the shade of blue on the dial.

your spur of the moment purchase is about what my car is valued at.
Yes I am jealous and yes you should be glad to make money.

Great watch!! I’ve been a fan of Omega for years, primarily because they use that escapement. Really started the shift in luxury watchmaking to longer warranties and longer service intervals.
