New Moowatch rep

[andreww]

Same old issues, but nice watch nonetheless!

One bonus i have noticed recently is that the rehaute is black, I was fitting a plexy to one the other week and it looked black anodized or something

Crap end links on that though

[lhooq]

I like how a big chunk of the Earth is missing, just like on the gen.

[Toadtorrent]

Andreww...did you see the gen silver coin one at the Eaton's Centre? It's beautiful I think. I've been tempted to get this one.

[andreww]

The missing chunk of earth is actually the moon's shadow as depicted in the astronauts suit patch.

And you are right Toad, this is a very beautiful piece when seen first hand.

[lhooq]

Thanks for the explanation, andreww, I didn't realize Omega was trying to match that shadow from the mission patch. But I still maintain that their engraver screwed up by indicating the shadow with a jagged line, and leaving what looks like Alaska floating in space!

The patch/image doesn't depict a shadow being cast on the Earth. That is simply the night side of the Earth.

When the moon does cast a shadow on the Earth, its called a solar eclipse. And, even then, the shadow only covers a small portion of the Earth's surface.

The missing chunk of earth is actually the moon's shadow as depicted in the astronauts suit patch.

And you are right Toad, this is a very beautiful piece when seen first hand.

Nice but still VERY inaccurate, I often admire the gen piece in my local jewelers window while I pass by, the black rehaut is definitely an improvement...a small improvement BUT STILL.

I want correct sub dial spacing!
