I am posting this on Art's behalf while he gets his computer photo posting issues sorted out. Hopefully soon, meanwhile he wishes everyone Happy New Year! ...
. . . in Huntington Beach. When I showed him the reason for my trip, he said, "About forty years ago I was looking at this massive Omega dive watch in a jewelry store. It had a black dial, and they were asking $3400 for it. That was about $3000 more than ...
. . . but there was no point going before Christmas as parking spaces would've been hard to find. No problem finding a convenient spot next to the elevator yesterday!
. . . that are standing in the way. I can report it kept exceptional time while on my wrist for a week. No second thoughts here! The Ultra Deep is likely to be as close to an every day watch as I'll ever have. HNY, Art
Congratulations.! I consider the Ultra Deep to be the only truly wearable super deep diver. Just thin enough so one can wear it as an every day sport watch…even more wearable than the Ploprof. If I didn’t already own the P.O. chrono it would be on my wris...
. . . much less 6000, but it's enjoyable finally being in the company of dive watch enthusiasts. I've always liked the genre, but couldn't find one nearly as close to ideal until UD came along. An original SM 1000 would've done the trick, but they're scar...
That is a massive 6000 meters deep Seamaster. I make no secret about it, the ultra deep is for me a must have as Omega seen by me as the grand in watch land. Before i can enjoy Dr No’s his ultra deep.
. . . to bring out the UD. An Omega rep went to greet the new customer. "Is there anything I can do for you, sir?" "Uhhh . . . yeah. I don't see any prices on these Omegas. What does [pointing to an AT] that one cost?" "The list price is $6100, sir." "$61...
. . . (shooting in all seven stripes or solids and then sinking the 8 ) was yesterday with the bad boy on my wrist. Confidence or coincidence? You tell me! 🎱
. . . overtly large. Its presence is as unavoidable as it is unmistakeable. UD is more like the Flightmaster - it blends in on my slender wrist. No one has noticed it yet; I consider that a positive.
It’s a fantastic offer from Omega I like the wrist presence. And I like the pure dial with the 3 - 6 - 9 - 12, especially that it is not disturbed by a date window. My best 6.000 wishes Thomas
. . . of more than a few of those six thousand meters of water resistance. I can't remember the last time getting into an ocean; maybe on a future trip to my favorite vacation place of all, the Seychelles. 🏝
True story: a friend had a YG Rolex diver on vacation in the Pacific and decided to test the water depth rating by attaching it to his deep sea fishing line. After it was submerged someone reminded him that fish are attracted to shiny objects. Hilarity en...
. . . on most of the strap and bracelet options. I bought the rubber strap and dedicated buckle as well, but it's going to remain on the bracelet for the time being. Art
. . . and orange bezel on rubber strap. I've posted a photo of his UD before; unfortunately I'm unable to post photos at this time, but should regain access in a week or so. HNY to you as well, Spangles! Art
In a big way! Off the deep end so to speak! Congrats Art I thought you'd never come aroud. But when you did... wow! Looks like a gem of a watch. Enjoy in good health.
Very comfortable and wearable on my 6" wrist despite the fact that it looks too large. I was hoping to try the bracelet version but this was all they had. ...
. . . so that I can wear the short strap that's already been delivered. Totally down with the appearance of the strap . . . might have to switch around often to appreciate both options. Art
. . . and unexpectedly comfortable aesthetically. I don't tolerate large watches well, but the UD is a rare exception. My 910 Flightmaster is also an exception, and GO Navigators another. Currently wearing a '62 ref 14701 Seamaster . . . . . . that's 35 m...
They have the orange version available. Tried on for fun and was surprised how wearable it is! Sure it’s as thick as my college girl friend but still so wearable! Love the transition dial.
