First Omega Incoming!!

Had no intention of buying a watch but when I put this on, it sang baby! These Omega rubber straps are so much better in person…never was a fan based on pictures. Love the dial!! Let’s go!!

Summer blue is a heck of a first Omega. Congrats and wear it often!!

I might go for the 300 Heritage 75th (because I already have a 300M)

Fantastic! These have been few and far between on here. I looked for any of these my last couple trips to Omega stores and I have never even gotten to look at one. And agree on the straps, they do them so well.

Thank you! Right place at the right time…which hasn’t happened to me before (I’m usually the waitlist guy). The AD I went to stated that they just got this in and it’s the first they’ve received. It seriously is incredible in person. Just ordered the stainless steel mesh bracelet as well so I’ll post pics as soon as that arrives.

Thanks all for the kind compliments!!

Congrats! I saw this in the Omega boutique a couple months ago and it looks great, probably my favorite Seamaster. I have the regular blue on rubber and have been pondering a swap.

Looks awesome, I’m waiting for the summer blue planet ocean. Still haven’t seen one in the wild or even a Ad

I'm thinking about getting a black rubber strap for my seamaster with a black dial. This forum is convincing me that I should lol
