Datejust 41
Very nice! I really like the new new DJ41, great update to a classic reference. My brother is looking to get one soon.
[emoji108]As I’m sure some of you will remember (since I said it a couple times) I said was going to hold off buying my dream watch (Speedy Pro) for my 30th birthday (today) because my wife and I are expecting out first child in just a few weeks!
Well, my wonderful wife surprised me with this this morning before work.
I am over the moon (pun intended)
On an old leather Nato for now till I can go get the bracelet sized.

Very nice. I purchased my Datejust 41 and my wife's ladies Datejust 31 on Valentines Day. She was in shock.

Yeah the Speedy really was and is THE watch for me.
A love the history, I love the look, fits me perfectly. Checks off all the boxes for me.
I really don't see myself wanting anther watch as much as I wanted the Speedy.
I'm honestly not much of a Rolex guy. They just don;t really do much for me.
Sure the Sub is iconic and I like it, but not sure if I would ever buy one.
If I were to buy a Rolex it would probably be a white dial Milgauss or Explorer.
But just curious what was the issue with your speedy? And did you send it to Omega for service?
Just curious of the experience...
Ha, yeah, I've also been eyeing a Milgauss lately, though I like the Z-Blue model myself. Would have to sell my Sub for one and not sure about that though...so we'll see how things shake out.
As far as the Speedy, I noticed one of the chrono pushers was sitting at a bit of an upward tilting angle. Under close inspection with a loupe it appears the pusher tube wasn't properly seated into the case. It's still under warranty so I sent it to the Omega boutique in Seattle as my brother had succesfully used them once in the past for service on a different Speedy (he's had like 5 of them over the years). Will be curious to see what they say, hoping for an easy warranty fix.
