  • Omega boutique had one of the new ‘57 Speedmasters in and, unsurprisingly, I have opinions about it.

    Positives:

    • Great movement - looks great, feels great.
    • The bracelet is the best I've ever seen on an Omega, hands down. Top drawer. Really smooth and expensive feeling and a very nice clasp with the push button microadjust.

    Negatives:

    • Case is overbuffed with not-great brushing and distorted surfaces - much worse case finishing than my FOIS
    • Fauxtina, obviously
    • Laser engraved bezel markings are too light
    • Chrono seconds hand and the date were both misaligned

    Nice watch with some real standout aspects (especially that bracelet), let down by some poor QC and finishing.

  • it's so shiny it reminds me the massive ones your local Turkish barber wears, the one with the bracelet that's way too long.
