Got my new Omega! Two-tone beauty...

[kingblackbolt]

OK guys,

I have been searching long and hard and have come close a couple times to some Omegas that I thought I liked as a long term daily wearer but now that things have settled down at my work place I pulled the trigger on this beauty and picked her up in person from the seller this past Saturday.

Seeing the pics had me drooling for this watch! I have never owned a Titanium watch before and have never had a two tone either though a watch with both has always appealed to me. The seamaster is my fave in the Omega line and I have owned many over the years. The bond version has never appealed to me as much as the 300m version with those beautiful sword hands.

Now I have a watch that sports 18k red gold and is light as a feather titanium and I can not describe how beautiful this combination is on my wrist. The glossy black dial fits so well with the Ti and gold. The red accents of the timers and the tip of the chrono hand is just the right colour accent. The blazing brightness of the lume can light up the room at night as well (I'd almost forgotten how bright these sword hands are with a little charging!) I have been wearing it all day today and may even sleep with it on as it just refuses to leave my wrist! Best part is that the seller had it fully serviced by Omega recently as well and they even replaced the pushers, HE valve and crown.

I am ecstatic to be wearing the "seahorse" on my wrist again and believe I have finally found my keeper!
