My new kid on the block -213.30.42.40.01.001

Recently picked up this awesome Omega Seamaster Bond Chronograph from a member here! She has been a long time coming, another cross off my wishlist for now! Here are some pics for your enjoyment!

Model number: 213.30.42.40.01.001 (what a lengthy name, what was Omega thinking?)

Case Diameter: 41.5mm

Case Thickness: 16.8mm







The famous Sea Monster

Black wavy dial, captures different light spectrum

Side view, 16.8mm thick...mmm, I got a thing for thick caseback


The wrist shot!

And again...mmm, nice thick caseback..I like!

Congratulations, enjoy in good health.

Since receiving my modified 2531 back yesterday, I have realised that the dial wears bigger than my 2594 Seamaster Chronograph, I have put this optical allusion down to the thickness of the Chronograph's case and think this also applies to the 42mm PO i.e. it is the thicker case that makes the dial appear smaller the 42mm.

We must have purchased ours at the same time! I was toying between this one and a Speedmaster and I chose this model as well. I've worn mine daily since - and I love it. Hope you have enjoyed yours just as much!
