I'll start by saying this is one Omega I've wanted to call mine for many years. I've wanted it for many reasons too many to name here. But let's just say that it's iconic looks and it's connection to the American space program/NASA were among the top ones.

Now years of waiting for the right time finally come to an end.

The model I purchased comes with the following.


* Kit Includes NATO strap, Velcro Strap to fit a NASA Space suit, Omega Jewelers Loop, Omega sizing Tool & Display box.


-Omega Caliber: 1861, Power Reserve 48 Hours
- Brushed with Polished Steel Case & Bracelet
- Scratch Resistant Hesalite Crystal
-
50 Meters / 150 Feet Water Resistant
- Case size 42mm
- Deployment Buckle
- Luminescent Hands and Markers



Again sorry for the cells pics the weather here in NH lately has not made it easy to take pics outside. As always THANK YOU FOR LOOKING!
 
Cell pics you couldn't make this watch look bad if you tried. Love this watch a lot for all the reasons you listed. The best! Congrats!

Joe, you sure have become heavy on the Omega's. This one is super, and the presentation is fantastic to say the least. I'm very happy for you. Congratulations and wear it in good health my friend. I salute you sir.

My one big regret is that I can only give you one 'like' on your post.

What an amazing watch! Just doesn't get any better than this.

Congratulations!
