I’m glad to hear you liked it Driver. I agree on the rubber strap. I still really like the mesh on this one. |

I just tried on the Omega Speedy racing as well and LOVED it. I was seriously considering it. The SOHC looks great, imagine that in a ceramic case!!! |

I tried that Speedy Racing on as well last week. I was surprised at how thin it was. I had thought it was going to sit very high on the wrist but was surprised at how well it wore. |

Yes, they've done a fair bit to reduce the height which has always been a criticism of the 9300/9900 movement-based watches. (The POC for example, while being gorgeous head-on, is just way too thick for most people). I think a lot of the height of the Speedy Racing is "lost" in the caseback which means the sides of the case can be much thinner. Plus they've reduced the height of the almost box-crystal that was on the previous model. It all makes for a very nicely proportioned watch. |

Thanks for posting these shots. I think I may pick up that rubber strap to go with mine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I wish they still had that strap version with the tang buckle. I really like the look but I'm not sure how much I'll wear it so I'd rather buy the tang buckle than the strap plus deployant clasp. |

yes, verified the tang buckle rubber is discontinued, though AD may well still have stock? |

I don’t think Govberg has any and eBay prices are ridiculous. Maybe once I get he watch I’ll start calling some local ADs or even a boutique to see what I can find. |

Got my blue rubber aero classic with the tang buckle today. It was in stock at the NYC boutique and had them ship it to me. Now I just need the watch. I figured I might as well get the strap now while they're still available. |
