Thank again Ron, and to USAgency Watches:"First of all, sorry for the long wait for the review, I was very busy lately, and also wanted to spend some time with the watch so I could write an honest opinion about it.

Even more interesting is who wrote this article: Gianluca – an Italian Formula One engineer for Ferrari. Check out the article on OnTheDash. 1 OF 1 Heuer Monza chronograph, powered by the Chronomatic Caliber 15 movement. ADVERTISEMENT

Last watch for 2011
Hi. Just two days till I pick up my Christmas present and my final watch for this year. An Aqua Terra Chronograph in Red Gold and SS on Brown Allogator. Its been an amazing year... watch wish. I've learnt so much about Omega and changed direction as far as my collection is concerned (Only Omega now) and I am really looking forward to 2012 and what that might bring. Hope you all have a great Christmas and achieve your watch collecting goals next year.

Can someone give me a short explanation of why the Speedmaster automatics seem to have such a lower regard, technically, than the Speedy Pro's? I recognize the historical advantage that the SP's have. Thanks.

Hi,I would like to purchase a GMT II coke (last production model before it was discontinued). Do you know what year was that? Also, are there any changes to the last production model from early 2000 models? Thank you!
