It’s a great watch. Things to consider:
1) it’s 42mm just make sure that feels fine on your wrist (should for most people)
2) it’s a manual wind, so just remember you’ll have to wind it daily (or whenever you wear it)
3) “purists” prefer the Hesalite as that is what was used on all watches that went to space, but the hesalite doesn’t have the sapphire crystal on the back so you can’t see the movement.
4) there are so many different models/versions/limited editions, so make sure you find the one you like (I.e. the snoopy is impossible to get)
Other than that, I am a big fan of omegas and think they make great watches.

Its a cool watch - but a very very basic choice.
As stated above I would get an automatic watch instead so you don't have to wind it as much. What is your budget?
Appreciate the help, first nice watch and an analyst, thinking around or less than 7k
You have many options in that range, but it looks like you are more interested in a “sporty” watch vs something a bit more dressy. Is that right?
I would normally highly recommend IWC (portugieser) , JLC (master control) and Glashutte Original at that price. I personally think Glashutte is a great deal, although they’ve been getting more expensive lately. But all of these are a bit different in style than the omega.
Anyway, if you are like me, this won’t be your last watch, so you’ll have time to collect many more…
Also, how big is your wrist? My wrist is on the smaller side so I look for watches under 40mm, 12mm thick, and under 47mm lug to lug.
Pretty average for a guy. 42mm looked fine on wrist. Not looking for something massive like seamaster
Its a good basic watch. If you like it, grab it.
But, If what you really want is out of budget, and you hope this will scratch the itch, I’d keep saving. It won’t scratch it…
Dark side of the moon or the Deville change my mind
I have one and wear it every day. I went with the Sapphire crystal because I liked the clarity and clear back. Brand new it comes with a nice stainless bracelet, NATO strap, and a useless astronaut strap, but I've been wearing it for years with a cheap velcro strap. I wanted a nice, understated watch that I could wear with a suit, jeans, and gym shorts and that's what it has been. Manual winding is, admittedly, a pain...
