One of the best Diver. Perfect size and proportion,

Nice sword hands, beautiful subtle wave pattern. The only downside for me is the scalloped bezel, although beautiful, is a bit harder to turn (less grip) than a coin-edge bezel like Planet ocean or submariner. I have the SM300 Commander watch, which is the last 41mm SM300 with the same case of 2254.50. Could not be happier.

My Old SMP300

While it may look chunky here, I can\'t believe that my Railmaster 60th is thicker by a millimeter (12.8 vs 11.8). This SMP wears really well. If there\'s one that I can say about these modern SMPs, or at least the ones from this era, is that the weight f...  

Sorry wrong photo on the last one..

15 years, that makes a long time, these days, when people buy watches at the speed of sound and sell them in a short time. Bravo. I love these old companions of ours, who were the witnesses

Of our good and bad moments. Yes, this is a version I remember very well, because I always found it very cool, and as a good alternatives to modern Subs. Best, my friend. Nicolas

Fully agree..

I even checked out the old receipts.. I was surprised to remember that the amount they put on the official receipt is different from the amount that I paid which was reflected on another document! Even box and papers tell a story

Fully agree

It is a very nice looking and very well performing Omega. The Speedmaster bracelet is actually fitting quite well, in terms of design and wearing comfort. Mine is also 10 years old now and it is still in my collection. It was my first serious watch that s...  

Ah yes, the Speedmaster bracelet definitely gives it a modern vibe..

Whereas the Bond one kinda dates it. The other nice thing about our watches is how the series seem to have jumped over it in attention.. from the Bond variants then on to the new POs and SMPs. Like it was just a quick blip on the radar. Heck I even liked ... 

Great shot!

And definitely a nice sports watch that deserves more attention. Best, Daniel

Yes, thank you (nt)

Great post!

It was a later version that started my watch obsession (long ago traded away, though). ...  

Nice thing about this series is that it doesn't get away too far from its original design..

Would've been helpful though if they just stuck to one design for the hands all throughout, for example.. sword hands or skeleton.. bond bracelet or speedmaster bracelet.. round or triangular indices.. Cheers, Echi

thanks for sharing this story Echi!

. . . only watch. Wears it everyday. His profession? Well, he's moved up a few notches since, but at one time, he was a parole agent for the State of California. And the SM was on his wrist for many adventures. He busted a few baddies with the Omega - not... 

Hehe that's a good story, Art..
