The Omega CK 859 might just be the COOLEST Omega release of 2022! 

Probably my favourite release of the year. Definitely edging the size barrier though, 38mm is ideal for myself. The Silver dial is definitely a very interesting choice, may offer a more unique aging process.

Finally omebody noticing it. I think it's such an "under the radar" gem.

Hey Britt, thanks for another wonderful review. I too am a “fanboy” of the crown, but have tried this on a number of times and really love it. Completely agree it is the best Omega release of the year, one of the best period. Take care and keep on smashing the RU-vid game!

Holy shit!!! That Omega is so beautiful and elegant as hell!! Great video!

Totally agree about the length of the hands and I couldn’t unsee it once you’d pointed it out. I’d still have one though!

Great review, as always! Also, really cool to hear you on Watchfinder’s channel. What’s the lug to lug on this watch?

I got my first 36mm watch this year (Oris Modern Classic) and I’m loving it. Just looking at this style of Omega makes me expect it to be 36mm. I’d have to try it on

Totally agree with you for the size. For dress watch 37mm, and manual wind is a perfect for me. First I was inclined to get this, then end up with SBGW231.

Hi! Tried one on and the first thing that stood out was how balanced it felt on the wrist. Stunning watch! And dw you'll always be the Rolex fangirl in these parts

this is such a beauty. thank you for this thoughtful review

Just watched the watchfinder video. I became a subscriber a few days ago after seeing the Santos video and didn't realise you have only been doing this for just over a year. Fair play, good stuff. It's nice to see dress watch content.

Beautiful beautiful beautiful! This is a watch right out of their archives, made modern. This has shot to the top of my Omega wish list. It’s getting a long list but I don’t care! Loving the Omega content Britney. You go Omega girl 😉 Ps 39mm is sooo perfect! 👌

I love this piece. I don’t know if I’d reduce the size or not. I love 37 - 39mm dress and casual pieces.

You should look at an overhead option for the mic so its not in frame. It might cost more but least its not gonna get on your nerves. As for the Omega, I mean its stunning. Not something I'd usually like but it is lovely and the exhibition caseback to see the movement is fantastic. Great review as always Britt.

I think I have found my realistic grail watch! That is such a beautiful watch. The smooth, grey dial looks so great, and I love the casual, dressiness of it. I could see myself wearing it now and when I am 70. Thanks for the great review!

Hey Brit! I would like your opinion. Here’s my current collection: Oris Aquis Date Green Dial, Rolex Pepsi, Tudor ban 58 Blue, Tudor BB Chrono Reversed panda and Omega Planet Ocean. Lack dial. I kinda feel,like I have enough divers and maybe need a dress watch. I’m on the waiting list for a Rolex Submariner No Date and/or an Oyster Pepertual Silver dial. Part of me feels,like getting a Submariner would be overkill since I already have 3 diver watches. What’s your thoughts? Any thoughts on a dress watch under $10K? I was thinking about a Longines.

Britt, I agree with you that this lovely watch is Omega's most attractive release of 2022. Love the sector dial and vintage 1939 vibes, but it should have been released as a 36 or 37mm. I like the strap and agree the hour hand should be a tad shorter.

Love the reference and the buckle. The OEM strap is not the best complement for this reference but that is the nature of any OEM straps.

Agreed, definitely a winner! I also feel it would have been much better if a tad smaller - between 37 and 38mm; but it would also depend on the lug to lug, and of course, the movement size. Still, I hope to add one of these to my collection, beside my blue Globemaster. Keep up the great videos! 🙏

Based on my AD the watch has been discontinued. Did a quick search on Google and saw some mentioning too.

I love the co-axial escapement in my 231.13.43.52.03.001

Omega girl does have a nice ring to it. Love the blued hands on the CK.

It’s perfect. I do agree with your views on the strap and I think it should’ve been blue.

At 3:00, perfectly matched corkscrew bottle-opener. Lol

I LOVE my CK859. Best purchase in AGES! As someone with large wrists, the lug length is perfect for me. It' s just a beautiful watch. The blue pops. (additional note. I have the same mike and same stand.... I hate the stand...but it's ok... haha.)

I agree with Gringa, 37mm would have been perfect 🥃

Hi Britt I’m a big fan of this watch however I do wonder how the dial will patina over time & the hour hand could do with a reduction in length so in my humble opinion it’s another great watch & an even better review. Thanks Hun & keep doing your thing. 🙏🏻👏👏👏👍

Bought it before everyone on youtube got to review it. Happy I did Perfect 2nd or 3rd watch in a collection to complement a sport or field watch in my view

I’d love to see a 36-37mm case size but all in all this watch is beautiful and it’s a sleeper too. Having the hacking hours and same movement as the Seamaster 300 heritage it makes me wonder why the Seamaster 300 had to be so thick on the wrist! Great video Gringa. Keep making great Omega and other watch videos 😎

Fun video as always Britt! I agree 37mm would be better. I quite like it and it's definitely in consideration for my dress watch.

Beautiful watch and you have a point, the hour hand cheats my eyes as well.

I have seen this watch a few days ago at a dealer… what a beauty (the watch😬). Since then there is something in my hat… a voice… telling me „GET IT!!!“. 🙈🙉 It‘s a timeless stunner! Great entertaining as informative review! Thank you for that! And now I have to leave for the dealer to stop the voice!😜

Excellent points on the strap and dail size, however, on the water resistance, I find 3ATM not to be acceptable now a days, I would say 5atm minimum (post Covid when you have to wash your hands 20 times a day!!!)

The bulk of the hour hand is inside the bulk of the minute hand is outside the line. I like it and the escapement is very cool enough said thanks

Love your videos, are you interested in talking about JLC watches? I think the reverso could be a go any where do anything watch, it begins as a sports watch and then developed in to more of a dress watch, and it’s very versatile, the duo face versions can act as two watches and suits a wide range of situations.

Brilliant Brittany; love your positivity where sometimes others focus on the cheap shots or the frowns. You know that you’re WRONG about 37mm ; good God; we’ll need to squint to tell the time. 39mm nails it…… well done Omega. Classic Watch from a classic Company. Just the therapy we need after all the chunky sports watches which I adore. It’s just brilliant to have the contrast. Keep it up Gringa; you’re a wonderful contrast yourself!

They could shrink it by a few millimeters by ditching the extra minutes scale. I don't understand why there are two of them. Yes, the hour hand is also too long, but the blued hands are a nice touch.

Stunner! I love a vintage look and a small seconds. Good point about the size. I recently bought a Tissot Heritage Petite Seconde. I love the dial. Classy looking watch. But it's 42mm. 40mm would have been better; 38mm would have been much better, and I have eight inch wrists. I get that they want to sell what's trending, but I'm with you on this, Britt. A smaller size would have added to the vintage look and feel, and overall experience with this watch. But if I had Scrooge McDuck money, I'd still buy one.

Purchased this watch a few days ago and I'm completely in love with it.

First, I love this watch and would put it at the top of my 2022 best watch list, and 39mm is fine by me, but I am a guy with wrists that can pull it off. "Omega Girl?" Well I vote that you are the last and final word in talking watches! HAHA. Also, I hit on the hour hand being to big too. But I am more stuck on the number font. I get that it appears to be a matching font to a 1939 version, but a small update like a font more along the lines of a 1950/60s Seamaster would have been nice. Great video as always Gringa, and you should let "Editing Brittany" out at the end of every video, she rocks. Long live the Cult.

Fantastic watch! I'm waiting for mine, it will be long wait but it's OK. I think it will look even better on aligator strap.

...and you give George Daniels his due credit...!!! I cant even begin to sing your praises ! Oh, and Omega was smart enough to buy the co-axial escapement from Dr. Daniels all those years ago is the cake for their present icing !

Hell yeah. Before even clicking on the video I went and enquired online about the size of that beautiful dial. Much to my dismay it was indeed 39mm. Not that I cant wear it (7’ wrist here), but im very much on the lookout for smth dressier within the 36-38mm range (that doesnt have a 50mm lug to lug, that is - yeah im looking at you Nomos). Bummer.

Nice looking watch, great movement. Thickness spot on, but 1 to 2 mm Increased case would suit me better. A light coloured ostrich leather strap would’ve be awesome.

I think it’s a nice, clean looking watch. It doesn’t really speak to me though. It seems we’re seeing a plethora of clean/somewhat minimalist-styled watches right now - think nomos, moser et al - and less isn’t always more. Also, has a slight field watch vibe - maybe because of the strap. 39 is definitely not too big - I actually like a 39 or 40 on a dress watch - though a lot can depend on the dial/bezel ratio etc. I like the thick strap but think it would be nicer though in a darker brown. 6k pounds seems very steep for this watch quite honestly.

You are right. I also think the diameter should be 37mm for dress watch. Especially, white color dial looks expansive which makes the dial even bigger than real size.

Simply stunning. Have not seen this watch before, thanks for sharing 🙂

I just watched your interview with watchfinder and I look forward to what you have next! Class watch, I would love to have one 😍

A lovely watch and the best release this year but I agree with the strap comment, it needs to have more of a tapper and the size is a little on the large size......still I want one so badly

Great video. I watched a video this morning that says it has been discontinued.

Great video Britt enjoyed hearing you on The Watchfinder and Co Chanel today. I think that Omega makes great watches I own a Speedy Pro but Rolex will always be my Favorite brand. Looking forward to the next one.

I agree with you on the strap! It does look cheap.. wish they put shell cordovan on it or something more fancy

I WANT!!! Ok, 39mm is a little small as I prefer 40-41 (love my Omega Seamaster 300 Heritage 41mm) but it is just SOOOO GOOD!!! No chance here in Australia though... The boutique "took my details..."

Stunning watch! I like the sector dial 😍👍

Very nice indeed. I notice a few folk think it’s maybe a little large. Personally, I think it’s a great size, you must bear in mind the slim profile of the manual wind. I like it how it is, maybe the strap is the weakest point of the watch. I could see how a 36mm would be a good option for many wanting the smaller size, why not do both. If Carlsberg made marketing decisions….. 😊

Yah! Double Brittany! Just watched your watchbox video - how privileged are we - two videos in the one day!! Nothing like double maths back in schooldays, this is like double whiskey or layer cake! PS - completely agree on the size, they should have kept it to 37 and the strap is indeed crap, but it is a lovely watch.

I like this Omega CK859 but I have to be restrained as I just got the Seamaster NTTD with both the titanium and NATO straps... Money is no object but what would be the point of buying too many watches whilst only one can be worn at any one time ?

Great video, and lovely watch, thank you. I agree with all your observations, but I don't really see it as a 'dress watch', in the pure sense; there is too much going on the (admittedly lovely) dial, for that. In my opinion, it would be a great 'dressy daily watch', but I would have liked it better if they had managed to get it up to 5ATM.

Nice watch good review, a nearly watch for me but I agree a super movement. Well done Britt!

Lovely looking watch. I was looking at it in a shop window recently, in fact the same day I was looking at the new Ranger, and it looked great in the flesh. The price puts me off a little but hell I just dropped a big chunk on a Moser so no new watches for me for quite a while!

I agree, it's a shame they didn't go with the original 37.5mm case size and I would also dig a hesalite crystal. I'd jump on that.

I want an Aqua Terra 38mm with the new terracotta dial and "president" bracelet, perfect holiday watch.

For me a perfect Dresswatch 👍

Why does the Omega web page say that this watch is not longer available?

Totally agree on the size...after owning it, I wished it can be a bit smaller. 38mm will be a good compromise =p Another complain....I wish the crown can be a wee bit thicker, it's too thin for my thick fingers.😅

I am coming around to a straight steel winder, but a precious metal case has to be the winner for the high end dress look. There is a current trend for brown, utility leather straps - which are only suitable if you are going to ride to the Savoy on a horse. Your new audio arm looks as if the Terminator is reaching into frame to snatch your Mic.

Videography is coming on leaps and bounds BP ❤️❤️❤️

I like it, but I already have watches that fill this space that I'm more than happy with. I know I sound like I'm trying to talk myself out of taking a look at one, well that's exactly it. Lovely watch that is so tempting and the Goldilocks size as well. Hmm.. when do I have time to visit the AD... Time to fill up those diary spaces.

stunning watch, 39 suits me fine, like the colour of the strap, something about a white dial and a tan strap looks so cool bin the arm, its even doing my head in

Britt you nailed it! This would have been much better at 36mm or 37mm and shorter hour hand. Beautiful watch for sure. My tastes are changing I purchased my smallest watch The 35mm Tangente blue dial but I still love my 43 mm Aquis watches

It's a beautiful watch. You can have slim and auto, but it's called Patek 😜 Hour hand reaches the hour track, and minute hand the....other one. Easy. Thanks for the video, and good luck with the refurbishment !!!

Nice work. Perfect lighting. Kudos Britt.

I agree 36 or 34mm. With at least 50 meters W/R. Never know when you may stagger into the pool at the club after a few too many.

4:09 strap? You got to be kidding, that fits to the watch like a glove.

Lovely watch, but totally agree that the strap just seems to be lacking a little something for my tastes, maybe if it was ostrich or crocodile or even a grained textured 🤷🏻‍♂️

Audio expert here! If you have the cash, I’d go for a Neumann TLM 103, and put it on a short desktop stand. If you have that about 1.5’ away and below + a bit to the side + tilted up towards your mouth, you’ll get amazing sound and a classic look!

Absolute stunning watch! As for the mic arm....it's not long for the chopping block me thinks. They are fine when you're on radio but for visual content 👎 in my opinion.

Agree, 39mm is too big for a supposedly discreet dress watch. It’s only 30m WR so it’s clearly not an everyday wear.

i agree about the size. 39mm is good but for a dress watch smaller is better. To an extent, at least.

It would be perfect, if it had a Helium Escape Valve, and an automatic movement, and a black dial, and a unidirectional bezel, (can you see where I'm going with this ? ),, not forgetting 300m water resistance,, apart from that, it's not bad,, 😂,, great video btw,, 😍

Very nice but wish it was fully brushed and smaller.

Agree, 37mm would be perfect. Also, the mic sounds way better!

I'd like it a bit thinner, but then again the specs of the movement are amazing.

As Brittany undergoes Omeganization, the best for the rest of us. Love that watch but have a similar Hamilton in a different color,, without that killer movement.

39 mm may be a bit large for a dress watch, but 11.7mm is too thick for a manual wind watch. I really wish Omega would work on making its movement a lot thinner. The watch profile would look better if it was 2mm thinner. As it is it seems like the bezel is far too thick and disproportional from the rest of the case. My 2 cents...

Love Omega Britt! 👍 hey I just spotted your twin on the watch finder channel 😂x

Dress watch. I would wear a dress watch once a month. So hand wind is great for me. Auto wind would be useless and you would need to set the time each time you wear it and wind it anyways. So a thinner watch is needed. Daily use is better to wear an automatic. IMO.

I'm surprised it's taken so long for a mainstream RU-vidrs to comment on this watch. I think it's an utter belter. I swapped the tan strap out on mine for a distressed blue one

Great video and lovely to meet you. You definitely put that extra thing into your videos I’m too lazy I think lol Good luck with channel :) thanks for chatting I appreciated your time

I agree that 39mm is borderline too large for a dress watch. I have a 17.5cm wrist and wear a 38mm Seiko Alpinist Ginza as my daily. And I think the size is perfect for it! So 37-38mm for a dress watch is the ideal IMHO. This Omega was one of my favorite releases from the brand this year too…cookie dude 😵‍💫👍 sorry, your voice just gave me a Friends flashback 😏 wasn’t that a great show?

My favorite Omega art machine at the moment. Thanks Omega Girl!

Another great video of another great watch from Omega. 39mm works well for me as it is so beautiful when I wear it. Yep love at first sight!

That Omega is freaking spectacular

Thanks Britt for a great vid! A very handsome watch for sure (but I agree with every one of your criticisms as well!) 😎💪

I adore this watch. So effortlessly elegant. I only have one issue with it: As a male member of the itty-bitty wrist committee, 39 mm is just a bit too much for me, especially with a dial that has so much presence. I generally like my watches on the smaller side and I never buy anything over 38 mm. If this was 36 mm, not only would it be much more period-correct for its style, I would buy it right away as my new GADA watch. (Right now, the 36 mm Nomos Ahoi Neomatik fills that role.)

Love this watch ….. put mine on a blue leather Omega strap with deployant clasp. Check out the ‘domed’ crystal too! Looks the business! 🤩

This watch is totally awesome…….only if it was a little small it would be perfect………nice video Britt. Hopefully by the end of this week I will become a patreon, it will be an honour to support your amazing amazing work.

Thanks for Omega review, raised some pertinent points. By the way, the mike is fine, great sound.

Beautiful - and so is the watch! 😀

Imagine they say that to commemorate the 1939 release we shall make this a 39mm watch with 19mm lug width
