I have one - the 2264.50. I like it a lot. Low maintenance and accurate. I have changed the battery once after 5 years. It looks great and you don't see many other people with it - at least not the speedmaster style bracelet as it was discontinued.

SMP Quartz is the perfect go anywwhere do anything watch for me.
The 2254 auto is preferred by most, but the 2264 has the cleaner and more balanced dial IMO (e.g. less writing and same size markers at 3 and 9). If you want a quartz in your watch box, the SMP's are hard to beat

Bought one brand new in factory plastics. Wore it for less then two weeks. Not as accurate as SINN or Breitling quartz watches. Best lumen ever. Sold it with no regrets!

Along these lines, what do people think a Seamaster quartz (2264.50) could sell for with full set (boxes, extra links, cards, etc)?

I have an old Seamaster Professional 200 from the early 70's. Had the guts replaced several years ago and it is a great watch. My only complaint is that it's a bit small for a diver, if it were a bit bigger I'd wear it constantly. I may have it resized and give it to the boss (wife).
