Omega DeVille Co-Axial Chronoscope GMT

Had this in the Omega forum, decided to post here for others as well (didn't really clean up the watch before I took the pics so please forgive the smudges in a few pics).

Let me first say that your coaxial is an incredible watch. And the forthcoming is not to compare watch quality, but I love the band clasp. I just received a Citizen with a similar setup and mechanically, I was almost not man enough to figure out how to set the thing up. Then after 40 minutes to an hour of pondering it just hit me like a brick and everything went together and I think the leather band with metal clasp arrangement is a superb invention. Great watch, really nice piece of leather with it as well.

Congrats on your Citizen, do post some pics (or a review) if you have time. As for the clasp, as mentioned in my review, it's really good with the only exception that it scratches the leather when you thread it through. Not the end of the world as you would rarely have to resize but still it would've been nice if they implemented something like Charriol's clamp.

Cheers,
Tim

I have a Seamaster myself. I love Omegas. I got hooked thanks in a large part to James Bond. The New one. not the ones who wore Rolexs.

Gotta admit the newest Bond is the best since Connery IMO and he wears an Omega in the movies. He kicks a$$

No matter how many times I see a watch movement I'm still mezmorized by it, especially when it is so well finished.
