And a hot take from me, I think Chopard gets a very big pass for having incorrectly sized 30-year old movement while other brands get murdered for the same thing.

Design is coherent but Omega really needs to move on from their movement platform from 2010s. Had Spectre 300m, super nice design but alas 15mm thickness, add more for the NATO strap and ultimately didn't wear and sold it because of that.

Wondering if you can given opinion on level of movement finish. What large scale manufacture brand would you compare the level of finishing to?

Would be a serious competitor to VC cow's horns. Price is not bad imo but 15mm is too unbearable for me.

But you need its own proprietary case as with all other decent 3rd party macro lens. However biggest thing is unless you shoot macro photos outside in bright sunlight, you need a lot more set up - tripod to lower shutter speed to get more light, artificial light - otherwise you are going to get grai
