    New arrival - first diver

    I just registered on the forum a week or so ago, in search of a diver to complement my Speedy Date. I was initially thinking of the current quartz model, then veered towards the 2264 quartz for its looks. I just like the more plain look more; the new bond-version, especially in black, is somehow quite close to my Speedy in overall appearance. But then... I found the one and only Seamaster I've always been drooling for. In near mint condition, but over my budget. Had to get it though, and here it is. This leaves my options open for a quartz though, so... ;)

    Is that a Ti SMP 300 with sword hands?
    It's just a matter of time...

    Cheers,

    Daddel.

    Thanks guys! Looks good, but feels even better. Not everybody might appreciate the really light feel, but you almost don't even notice you're wearing a watch.

    Excellent choice and welcome my old china :wave:

    If that's the one on SC, then I thought lomg and hard about that one as well. That's the best combo around - Titanium case and sword hands.

    That is what is known as starting off in style :D

    By far my favourite Seamaster diver. Have tried it on and as you say feels very good on the wrist. I really like the matte titanium look (should probably get one of those myself...) - Big congrats !

    Wearing my Speedy today and really noticing the weight. Plus this 7750-thing does the wobble every now and then, which the Seamster doesn't do.

    Mine was not from the SC, but from the net anyway. I'm from the far northern corner of Europe, not much of a market of preloved watches here.

    But the Seamaster is definitely a keeper. I'm not a watch collector anyway, I just like nice watches, purchase what I like (and can afford) and purchase them to wear them. Though I guess it's not really long way from here to become somewhat of a collector... ;)

    Hmm...have we heard this before? :roll: Then it just slips away from control and you have a pile of Omega boxes in your house. :bounce:

    Hah, that might be, but that's yet to see!

    PS. Pidetään homma tiukasti lapasessa. ;)
