I gotta hit powerball or something

 

[Grine]

I want the blue face!

 

[typerpinoy]

I mean it is essentially 3 watches in 1. In which case it becomes a bargain haha

 

[rfx45]

the steel 222 might legit be my endgame watch

i wont stop buying watches but thats like the holy grails of holy grails for me and if its the last watch i buy, i think id be fine with my collection as is

 

[sneaksoy]

There’s just something about blue and gold watches that looks so so good. I like the shade of green VC used there too but the blue is special.

The blue dial/rose gold MUT perpetual is one of my retirement-worthy grails

 

[Beruseruku Desu]

I have a Batman and Santos. I’m stuck between these two watches for my next.

I want the SM because I love the green but I also want a 36mm Explorer 1, a watch without a big bezel. Thoughts?

 

[1stwitit]

Both are great. Explorer looks perfect on your wrist, SM looks a little big.

 

[Beruseruku Desu]

Oh that’s not my wrist lol. Just screenshots I found online.

I did try in the seamaster in store though.

 

[rfx45]

seamaster should be readily available and maybe even on a discount

ask your AD how long it will take for you to get an explorer because theres a good chance you can get the seamaster now and have enough money saved for the explorer again by the time you get the call

 

[typerpinoy]

Realistically will try to get this next.

 

[Grine]

Beautiful - May have to put this on my next bday list.

SS Daytona and Pepsi still not available for me even though I’ve spent a decent amount with my current AD. At least VC doesn’t seem to play the availability game. He told he 3-6 months for the SS overseas.

Gorgeous,

I wish my wrists weren't so small, I am pretty much relegated to 36mm or smaller

Explorer. More subtle. Both are cool as hell tho

the 007 SM is 11.3k retail... omega done lost their mind.

 

[sneaksoy]

I tried that 007 Seamaster on a while back. While the SM is generally too big for my preferences, I was really disappointed with the bracelet. I can't remember what the clasp was but it was not comfortable (for me) at all.

I also tried on the new reverse panda Speedmaster recently and was extremely impressed with that one. But $10.4k for that was also absurd imo.

I think one of their big problems is too much product at too high a price. I think consolidation across the product range and listening to the audience would do them good.

Doesn't help that Tudor have slipped into their old spot and Cartier has become so much more desirable.

Uncle straps do some good bracelets for it including a nice mesh with integrated lugs.

Titanium Wire Mesh Bracelet (Omega Seamaster No Time to Die)

Uncle's notes The Omega Seamaster "No Time to Die" remains a modern favorite. I guess we all see a little secret agent in ourselves. 😎 But the stock bracelet has some issues. While the mesh looks great, it is only offered as a straight end, leaving unsightly gaps between bracelet and case. A...
