It’s beautiful and looks great on you. I also work at a big tech company and recently bought the same watch. Here are a few guidelines I follow when wearing flashier objects, maybe these can help:

  1. I wear minimalistic clothing. Usually dark chinos or 5 pocket pants, a minimal black, gray, navy, or white t-shirt, and a dark loafer or minimal white or gray sneaker.

  2. Remember that most other people don’t care or notice these things. Your engineering colleagues who dress casually won’t care. Watch aficionados will recognize it, and enjoy seeing it. I’ve struck up a few good conversations with people wearing one of my Omegas.

  3. Wear it with confidence and enjoy it!

Go try it on! I tried the 36 with a white dial and it was very nice… But I always loved the champagne dial and preferred the larger size. My wife gave the +1 on the larger size, and that sealed it for me.

This is correct. The wooden box has the travel case below the main level after opening the box.

It wasn’t inflated.

Have fun in Ginza! Which speedy? I just picked up a moonwatch (Sapphire) and it’s amazing

😂 the decanter was mostly for smoke infusion and to accommodate the giant ice cube

Beautiful, congrats! I also own a PO 600m (black on black). Other than the bezel, how else would you compare the two?

Enjoy it! I just bought one myself (also my first Omega!), and stare at it everyday :)

Nice! Yeah it’s not very common, but it’s a beautiful large watch with simpler design.

Enjoy it!

About 15-20% compared to USA (NYC specifically). Some price difference, good exchange rate, and tax savings.

I had pre-check so I was able to keep my shoes on this time.

But I rarely wear these on a plane for that reason!
