I own a blk/blk quartz fullsize with speedmaster bracelet.
It´s a very good looking watch, and I think the look of it is very classic also.
This watch blends in with other classic looking diver watches, compared to bond model and it surely looks "ordinary" when any distance looking at it. But if you look closely, I think think you´ll get stunned by all omega specific details!

1. very subtile and artistic black wave pattern on dial,
2. the date window is almost 3D, with eye-catching
white numbers on black background,
3. somehow hard to grip, but classic and well designed bezel,
...and more.

The cons are as follows:

1. I think the twelwe mark on dial is too big. Overdimensioned. It surely has some point, making it easier to read in darkness but aesthetically, too big.

2. Cause of the thick superluminova paint on markers, they seem to carry some unevenness which can be seen at close range.

3. bezel is hard to grip and turn when your fingers are wet due to sweating etc.

4. bracelet scratches easily

But in overall, this watch is really comfortable and good looking and surely is worth the money.
Duno anything abt movement, and its a quartz so I don´t care too much about it.
But my watch dealer strictly recommended me to buy a quartz, because she said automatics break more often and are expensive to clean/service.
