Audi and Swatch? Definitely F.A.R.T. material.

Swatch trash post ahead -

Anyone have a NTTD Seamaster? Thoughts on the titanium strap? I have an opportunity to pick up one for a good price, but the strap is the regular sized, which is too large for my shocking tiny wrists (6.5 freedom units). I just worry if I get it on the nato I will regret not having the titanium strap, but otherwise wouldn't wear it because it likely will suck for my tiny wrists.

Swatch post trash over.

I've tried it on and have a similar size wrist as you. The regular titanium is too big. If you get the NATO and want the titanium, that will run you about another $1400.

Yeah,

Yeah, that is the kick. The watch has the regular sized strap, so I guess I would sell that and maybe buy the short strap. But I have only heard complaints about the strap, and there is copy-cat titanium milanese bracelet for less than $100 elsewhere.

Cheapest NTTD I’ve seen is over on Omegaforums. A guy from Europe is selling either version and covering customs if shipping to US. My Omega boutique said they’ll swap out regular for short provided the strap is unworn

Great watch and photo!
What's that car?
Four zeros on the steering wheel and a fifth behind it?

You know what would be cool? If Omega releases this, but with an automatic movement and without the “professional” text on the dial.

Close? Auto sans “pro” at least…

Was hoping this would have more info about how to spot good or bad condition — overpolishing, frankenwatches, etc.

Call me AP trash, don't care, I dig the new star wheel. Seconds hand sucks, but best Code 11.59 to date. And I could live with the crappy seconds hand pointing to nothing.

With all respect, this is simply ugly.

This is very nice, even with the "PROFESSIONAL" text. I much prefer the bezel in the same metal as the case over a contrasting one.
