I tried the steel bracelet version of this on last week as I was flying out of Heathrow, I was really impressed with it. I've owned the last model in both standard and Chrono versions but the new model is on another level, nice to see the waves back as well...............this is definitely my next purchase
I loved it.... I have the last of the waves from 2013. My wife doesn't feel it is different enough .

Looking forward to fitting the rubber strap to this one
Lol.............what does your wife know

I personally think the difference in quality between the outgoing model and the new one is night and day, Omega have definitely gone to town on the new one. I'll get crucified by some for saying this but I'm probably getting the new Seamaster (on a steel bracelet) instead of a Rolex Sub, I was that impressed with it, for me personally, I just can't justify paying the extra £4k ish for a Sub, that's partly why I got the Tudor Pelagos as well.

I fitted the Omega Snoopy Cordura strap to my last Seamaster Chrono, I liked it a lot.
I'm running a similar combo on mine as well, good taste mate.
Very nice! I'm loving the different straps!

Now I want some kind of storage box for the tools and straps... can't find what I want though!

This is my latest edition. Tudor blackbay s&g.

I think as a daily ware, I'll be changing the strap out for a brown leather strap, but I think the bracelet makes this a beautiful occasion piece.

Great collection! I took my grandads watch in to see what year it was. Turns out it is a 1963 International collection Omega with a Calibre 269 movement.

That's a great looking vintage. I've always been a fan of the sub second dial at 6 o'clock.

Thanks! The tech at the Omega Boutique mentioned how well it had been taken care of. Yes the sub second is a cool part to the watch. It's amazing how thin the watch is. The bracelet is aftermarket made by NSA of Switzerland.

Not worn often but it is in great condition for a 55 year old watch!

I have some interesting watches but of all, I like this. Auto divers pepsi, had it for 20 years, well worn bashed, scuffed & faded from use but does exactly what it's supposed to.

A classic for sure. I like the look of the new Tudor GMT with the Pepsi bezel. The Rolex GMT is hard to get and over inflated prices.... can't go wrong with a Submariner.

Thanks a lot, I like the GMT as well but prices and availability are both daft. I've got a Tudor Pelagos and it's a cracking watch to be fair, full titanium case and bracelet and is cool in a understated way.

Yes yes it's not a mechanical but had this Garmin Fenix 5+for about 6 weeks now for an everyday watch, replaced my Forerunner 935.

It's an absolute beast, tracks all my running, hiking, cycling and golf. Tried an Apple Watch but thought it was a bit flimsy.

My Omega PO is safely tucked away during the day. Must admit am tempted to get a IWC now or even a newer PO but not sure I could justify the cost with the Mrs!

The Submariner is a great looking watch. Did you buy from an AD or on the grey market ? There is no stock of SS watches in UK so you must have been incredibly lucky if you found an AD with a spare Sub in stock

Hi there, I'd been on a waiting list with an AD for just over 2 years and got a phone call last week to say somebody had backed out and was I interested, timing wasn't the best really with Xmas around the corner but hey ho......ho, ho
