Great watch, for me it has the perfect height to width ratio of 3-1, I have mine on a rubber strap with the curved lug ends and white stitching.

The 2500D movement is also very accurate and robust.

Yep I have the rubber deployment strap, the original steel one that I have modified with the micro adjustment clasp and this nato. Swap them around every few weeks.

Brilliant watch. 12 years old now and hardly a mark on it. For me the 2500 is Omega's best Planet Ocean.

Picked up this yesterday , always liked the Tags and have been wearing one as a daily for the last 25 years. Time for an upgrade.

F1 Chronograph.

Looked at this one but felt too "blingy" so went for the stealthy one with the satin sides and black bezel.

Nice looking watch! I had the same a few years ago, sold it in the classified section on here. I'm always changing, but it was one of my favourites.

Hope you enjoy it.

I've sold a Rolex gmt that paid for a new watch and loads of m performance stuff

I have to admit I bought an Apple Watch a few weeks ago, and haven’t taken it off my wrist since, absolutely love it!

Also love how cheap and readily available different straps are:

Had a look at this while shopping today. Not seen this model before. It's very pretty (despite my poor photographic skills and the store's poor light). But felt a bit of a Rolex inspired Breitling given the day / date. What do others think? It's £3500 at rate.

Not my cup of tea. At that price point i would go for a Superocean

Panchoa · 05-27-2019, 04:31 PM

Not for everyone but i love it

Hi
What’s a typical replacement battery and “re-seal” on a 300m waterproof watch cost?
Quoted £65, don’t know if reasonable.
Cheers

Roo12 · 05-28-2019, 03:17 AM

Sounds cheap, I paid £100 on a Breitling for a battery, clean and re seal

Thanks buddy. Yeah i really like it. One of the go to watches on the weekend, but not an everyday watch.

My birthday present to myself... tried to talk myself into an Omega or Rolex but this ticked the boxes for much less. Besides which, it doesn’t make a dent in the new car fund, can’t spend it twice!

Wills2 · 06-02-2019, 11:47 AM

Beware that great value Daytona on ebay...the fake's on the left, or is that the right?

TaranF32 · 06-03-2019, 09:17 AM

Gotta love a datejust!
