Arrived! 2254 replacement!

I know that is is not as beautiful aesthetically as the 2254 but what I wanted was a tool and work watch. I think it fits the bill nicely. Plus I can still have the sword hand and the applied markers that I liked so much on the Black SMP!

I paid the same price as I sold my SMP for.

In the box



Love the Bond with sliding clasp!



One more on bracelet



On rubber Omega strap



Wrist shot



This is how I plan to wear it most of the time. I think the 2tone bezel and red hand and lettering is a nice contrast with the black rubber strap.

I don't think anyone will mistake this watch for anything but a sports watch



Thanks, Haj

Good choice mate!

Those bond bracelets just so comfortable. On the other hand...the rubber strap looks great too! Perfect for a hi-vis, reliable & versatile sports watch.
Wear it in good health!

Great looking watch, Haj. I wouldn't have thought it, but it does look good on the rubber strap. And, of course, that red 24 hour hand is just a standout. Contrats and wear it in good health.
