Prime example as to why one should only buy watch/any luxury item well within one's means, as Tim Mosso often says. That way, if it disappears (regardless why), we are no worse off and...
at least can take pleasure in the time it was in our possession. No matter how much we love our objects, they may not be forever and memories may have to suffice despite the sadness of loss. If we are truly worse off for the monetary loss, it probably was not the smart thing to buy in the first place...
Extreme sport, extreme loss
I wanted to get a watch to ski, swim and also kitesurf which is my favourite sport, having restarted my collection with Rolex, I thought would be nice to try Omega. Bought the James Bond Seamaster in Oct. and lost it kitesurfing in Costa Rica in Dec., I s...
I have fears after reading this.
But i have a gripe when I see the silver buckle on the nato strap. The silver version uses a thin sliver as the prong as the buckle which may warp. Omega seamaster bracelets inspire the same fear. A lot of the modern ones are trigger released, without an ...

Sorry to hear of the loss, that's
painful. But that is is exactly why I don't wear any of my watches during any sporting activities, too much risk, for me anyway. I freak out when I misplace one in the house, can't imagine losing one in the water. My dentist had a new Rolex GMT, wore it s...
I actually just went to buy this same watch
After trying it on the bracelet clasp was just too thick and uncomfortable. Great looking watch though. Sorry for your loss hope it was insured.
