I called into an Omega AD in Chester UK yesterday to try on the No Time to Die Seamster. £9,500, more expensive than a Sub LV.

It is a nice watch, the bunching of the bracelet underneath didn't bother me at all, which is something I had read about. But the quality of my LV is just in another league.

I'm so glad I went with The Crown.

Crown is best …

I agree but there is room in a collection for both.

Glad you had a chance to see it Pete.

Nothing wrong with staying in your lane if that’s what you like

sgt10p · 15 June 2024, 10:19 PM

You're so kind guys, this was supposed to go up on the Rolex board. I wouldn't have posted here, kind of negative comment on your brand. Sorry.

Not negative taken in a negative light at all.

We all have our preferences.

I prefer Rolex divers as well, and GMTs, but I prefer Omega chronographs

Perhaps you should have posted this in the Omega watch forum then you might have had a different reaction.

sgt10p · 15 June 2024, 10:30 PM

I did by mistake (or as I suspect the Tapatalk algorithm).
They were fine with it. Nice people.

Omega prices in general are / have got higher than the market will bear. 7600 for a sapphire speedy! Do me a favour…

Cool watch but overpriced at retail IMHO.

It's the only Seamaster 300M I like - It's the only one I'd buy - but I would never pay what they want for it, sadly.

Swilder916 · 16 June 2024, 03:16 AM

I did enjoy that watch. Super light titanium and very wearable. I just didn't wear it enough.

Yes lovely watch but not 9.5k lovely. Possibly a good used buy however. Maybe around 6-6.5kGBP

Agree - far far too expensive.

Omega used to be a lot of people’s first step into the quality watch field inc myself in 1998. Unfortunately there now at a price when your looking at alternatives at these current MRRP prices

Agree, there are LOTS and LOTS, for sale at the price range.

Andad · 16 June 2024, 07:25 PM

I have just checked the price in Oz.

$16650.

That must be Aussie dollar values? (Two to the pound)
Have a look on WFinder.

Steerpike999 · 18 June 2024, 12:22 PM

I have both the NTTD and the 116610 LV (Hulk). Very different watches, similarity is they are both dive watches, that's it.
Price is something personal, at the end of the day these are very expensive watches.
Buy the watch if you like it

Agree with you. I like the NTTD, but at half the price.
Incidentally, you're from just down the road from me. I'm from Caldy.
