Omega Speedmaster Professional Sapphire, an unboxing. 1/ for something that’s 42mm, it sure does come with a lot of packaging — 11lbs.

3/ An omega-branded loupe w/ tachymeter, a black NATO, a NASA-style Velcro strap, four spare spring bars, and a strap changing tool, and some weird medallion (?) The inclusion of a strap changing tool is a nice touch for a versatile watch

Omega gives an awesome box and tools with their watches. Rolex box is pretty mediocre in comparison

Agree, the spring bar tool feels like a steak knife

6/ Seems sinful to put a display caseback on a NATO but it’s gonna be a few weeks until I get the end links necessary to add micro adjustment to the bracelet’s clasp.

That looks like a spare caseback, not a medallion, so you can switch to solid rather than display if you feel like it. Is it threaded on the other side?

Not threaded, and it’s way bigger than the watch face. If someone knows what I should be doing with it, let me know!

The medallion looks like the case back for the anniversary edition

Rubber strap Qs fellow 🐠. Looking for a black rubber strap for the GMT BLNR that integrates with the case. Two questions:
1) seems like it comes down to Everest, rubber B, and maybe Zealande. Anyone have an opinion from experience?
2) tang buckle option or the one that uses the Rolex clasp? like the look of the latter, but wonder if I could use the strap with other pieces with the tang (unless these are truly ‘custom fit’ to the Rolex model selected?)
Thanks all!
