Ed & Adrian...here's a dash of orange!!

Hi guys,

Since you love the colour orange so much, I though I'd add in some extra flavour by way of this beautiful glossy pic sent to me by OMEGA along with my COSC certificate for the same watch.

Cheers - JJ

LOL! Seriously, Roger, it's an amazing watch that just grows and grows on you. Its mammoth size, heft and overall finish is mind-blowing. I'd strongly recommend the larger 45.5 mm size to anyone with a wrist of at least 7". The smaller 42 mm is just not as glamorous as this one.

Check one out at your local OMEGA dealer and you'll see what I mean.

Fungus grows on you, too, but that doesn't mean it's good.

Can't say I'm overly fond of either.

You ought to see it on the orange strap!

Talk about orange and bright!! I've handled both sizes and both colour combos now, and they are very nice watches. I really liked the big black dialed one. Man, I'd dive in that watch. The Seamaster sucked as a real dive watch IMO!
