This might be heresy but I think Omega is a better watch and watch company then Rolex but they do come up with some weird stuff, Dont forget the Seamaster at 41mm and I think the SpeedMaster is 42mm now probably has been for a while but I'm old school.

oh +1 ... I bought the gen PO 8500 ... looks amazing but just doesn't wear right. I dropped it for an old-school 2254, no regrets.

Thank you sir! Are all the hour markers straight (head on shot), curious because that is what has kept me from getting a PO.
I have made a switch with my dealer to get this omega instead of a liquid metal Ti.
I also have a BP navitimer coming from him, no qc pics yet. I just saw in your post you are looking for one.
You don't want order it from a TD?

Honestly, I prefer my TiPO over this gmt because the 45mm fit my 7" wrist a lot better. The gmt is a good sports watch, but at the end of the day, it's just not as classy and appealing to me. Maybe get both and sell the one you don't like?

Honestly I'm hoping one pops up on m2m faster than the 1-2 month wait from a TD. I have plenty of watches to keep me entertained right now, but I'm sure if the itch gets bad enough, I'll cave at some point. Maybe if yours doesn't suit you, we can work something out? [emoji6]

Oh I forgot to answer your question, yes, all the hour markers are straight and the bezel and datewheel line up perfectly.

I've had my tipo on order from my dealer for more than two months now, he said factory was having issues with ?casework? I guess I am tired of waiting, hopefully no wait for the breitling navi, if so then I will have to do something else.

That's rough. There have been a few TiPOs on the m2m boards lately, which is where I got mine. Sometimes you just get lucky...

I look forward to see how you like the BP navi. Is it the navi01 or the navi world you're getting?

Thanks for the reputation! :) Happy to help out a fellow omega enthusiast!

I believe dealers miss title it, from what I understand its not naked GMT but dealers label it that way. I think this one is the world, right?

Yup, I believe that is the navi world, but it should actually be 46mm, not 47mm.. It's hard to tell on their site, but make sure moscow and new york are spelled correctly, so you can confirm it's from BP factory.

Here it is on puretime's website with the wrong spelling, hence not BP.

correct spelling:
