Omega

While at least the first part of the day will be filled with food shopping and chores to make sure we’re set up for the weekend, one can dream of the Seamaster in a more fitting environment. One of my few complaints of the reissue is the relatively low WR...  

Is it SPB in the background?

Thanks a lot for the kind words 🙏🏻 In spite of living next to a lake we somehow didn’t manage much in the form of water sports over the last couple of years 🤷🏻‍♂️

The water has a unique color

Wasn’t aware of that 😊 It is a wonderful city but especially so for those somewhat younger. It does have a lot of culture, too but then that’s not fully unique to it 😊

The water has a unique color and so does the light

Still regularly spend time there? 😊

...  

Looking like that Seiko is getting a proper workout 😁🦾

In which case you have an even much more enjoyable water environment than in my picture 😁👍🏻

Spasiba SPB ❤️

Fluent?

It’s the same for me, ‘kak u sobake, ponimaju, skazat ne mogu’ 😉

My language skills are that of a dog - I understand but cannot say much 😉

The conversation today reminded me that we have all the ingredients for it at home 😁😋 ...  

It’s simple to make - frozen lingonberries, pine kernels and honey 😋 Nicely refreshing and the sour, nutty and sweet tastes make for a nice combination 👍🏻

Checked the menu of our ‘local’ from back in the day: Brusnika s kedrovimi orehami s medom

Is truly delicious 😋

One of those not driving the parents crazy if the kids watched it on an endless loop 😉

Have an enjoyable weekend dear KM!

Likewise to you 👋🏻

It is quite a versatile and nice watch 👍🏻

That really is a great looking watch so simple but elegant at the same time, wear and enjoy it in good health. Marc

It really is a very nice reissue IMHO. Same goes for the small seconds version 👍🏻

Enjoy!

The watch comes with three straps, a sturgeon leather in dark blue, a brown leather one and finally the Admiralty Grey NATO. Works quite well on a stingray, too 😉 ...  

For a watch. I really like them and they add a bit of sparkle. For me it was the esteemed member HS111 who got me into the path of stingray 😊👍🏻

The strap works quite well with the Cartier Drive Extra Flat, too 😁

this Seamaster 1948 at some point. On a brown leather strap I found it very much to my taste! credit: Fratello ...  

The brown strap you’re showing is one of the three that comes with the watch 👍🏻😊

In fact, the small seconds version has a little too much text on the upper part of the dial (4 lines). The center seconds might be a little better balanced! ...  

Of the watch box 😉 As for text, I agree that most watch companies put too much on 🤷🏻‍♂️

The short hands on the central seconds hand version are an acquired taste, even if historically correct 👍🏻

. . . I'll wear a vintage model . . . . . . before it's set to return to the safe deposit box until his next turn in the rotation. Best, Art ...  

Such a charming vintage Seamaster 👏🏻

. . . and both were the inspiration for the current 1948 issues. Happy Easter, Kristjan! Art ...  

Wasn’t aware that the vintage small seconds also had the short hands 👍🏻 Happy Easter to you, too 👋🏻

Besides the beautiful vibes I have been debating whether to add that same model (or one of its vintage siblings, old omegas are such a bargain it's hard to resist).

As to the modern one, I can say it’s a lovely, really versatile watch. You will most likely not regret it 👍🏻

. . . 2657. They came in several dial variations and chronometer rated as well as non. I've been fortunate to land mostly original (save for a crown on the 2494) and unpolished examples of all three refs, two of which are chronometers. With 36 mm cases th... 

can go to the bottom (literally) of the ocean I’ve always thought their depth ratings can be oddly arbitrary…🤔

Somewhat more befitting of the name 😉
