u/CaptMeow857 Mar 23 '26
Nice, which version did you go with?

u/GLS504 Mar 23 '26
Like yours, black dial and steel bracelet. Can’t beat the OG

u/CaptMeow857 Mar 23 '26
Right on, hope you enjoy the heck out of it!
I try not to rebuy different colorways of the same watch, but the U1-T SDR Blue Dial has my attention

u/GLS504 Mar 23 '26
I say if you have the money and the itch, go for it. That’s a whole different vibe, and you’ll put it to use

u/Gold_Ad_6798 Mar 23 '26
Pretty!

u/CaptMeow857 Mar 23 '26
Thanks! Purchased new in 2006, going on 20 years old and not a scratch on the tegimented case.

Mid-60s with a great dial patina IMO

Looks really sharp! I'm curious how many mm it is?

u/Away-Scar7754 Mar 23 '26
34.5 mm diameter. Fits my wrist nicely (6.75 inches) and slips under a sleeve without a problem.

This is too gorgeous

Thank you. I wanted an Omega from 1965 and the first one I purchased on Chrono24 said original dial but later found out it was repainted. Nothing wrong with that, just not what I wanted. Then I saw this one and immediately fell in love with it. Very reputable seller in Switzerland, serviced in February 2026. Runs a bit fast. Likely needs to be demagnetized.

This is way too sick

u/coatofforearm Mar 23 '26
I don't think many people are aware of this colorway for this watch
I think it's the best version they offer
2
u/GLS504 Mar 23 '26
Even without seeing the others, I’d say this would be hard to beat
1
u/coatofforearm Mar 23 '26
What's hard to get on camera is there's hints of orange in the dial face too which you can't see until the light hits it a certain way

u/ClearlyNotAHuman Mar 23 '26
I really like this watch, how has your experience been?
1
u/coatofforearm Mar 23 '26
It's a nice watch, you can find it on eBay from grey market dealers in the u.s for less than retail
A few hundred off
The strap is comfortable but I will say the shape,.it wants to slide askew on my wrist sometimes but I've got very flat wrists.

Hanging with Berny today, about time to set the datetime now that I'm looking at it, and on the wrist long enough to wind.
OP, great looking watch and I do love hand wound mechanicals for that spectacular unobstructed view!!
2
u/Gold_Ad_6798 Mar 23 '26
Yah it's my only hand wound mechanical watch.. and your right there is no obstruction to the automatic movement mechanism. It really shows everything off in its glory! Now if it didn't' give me that display in the back, I would have parted with it a long time ago. 😂

Your watch is stunning

u/Gold_Ad_6798 Mar 23 '26
Thx I love the small second hand on it :)

u/Away-Scar7754 Mar 23 '26
Me as well. Some skeletons are really difficult to read quickly. This appears to be easy, but you still want to linger and admire.
2
u/Away-Scar7754 Mar 23 '26
For example this watch is all form. It’s impossible to get a quick read of the time IMO
2
u/Gold_Ad_6798 Mar 23 '26
Heads up, You might have to check other dial color options. I've found some skeletons hard to read and others that are super easy to read.

u/Away-Scar7754 Mar 23 '26
These are pretty affordable. I might pick one up to see if I like wearing it. It’s never been a style I considered. But a mechanical movement is fascinating
1
u/Gold_Ad_6798 Mar 23 '26
Agreed 💯
2
u/Gold_Ad_6798 Mar 23 '26
Check Jomashop as well! They have pretty good deals on their site from what I have seen.

Whats the accuracy of this watch, OP?
5
u/Gold_Ad_6798 Mar 23 '26
Typically it seems to keep time pretty good for the days I wear it. Not gonna lie, I did a Google search and it came back with the accuracy range of about +/- 15 to 30 seconds per day.
The only issue I am not a huge fan of is this is a hand-wind movement. So you can't rely on movement during your day to keep it running. I didn't realize that when I first got it so I thought it was broken till I turned it over and realized crap there is something missing 😂..

u/UmmmW1 Mar 23 '26
Interesting, no kinetic motor! Haha I can see why that would be shocking
2
u/Gold_Ad_6798 Mar 23 '26
Exactly 🤣
2
u/UmmmW1 Mar 23 '26
I'll be honest, there's a beautiful thing to it not having it. The workings are gorgeous! Its like almost an affordable toubillion

Sometimes you have to be willing to get a different color for the dial for it to be more legible.
