Well, you might recall my recent acquisition, a mid size Seamaster. After a "polishing spa" treatment, the watch looked good! The thing is, since the first moment, I was worried about the size. In the pics it did not appear smallish in my wrist. However, it looked small compared to my other watches, it looks a bit small overall on me (I am not a small guy) and, when I showed it to the House President/CFO, her first words were "It is too small!". There is nothing wrong with the watch, I love the quality, design, built, etc... It is just a tad small. So, considering all that, I decided to flip it. As I got it for a very good price, with perfect box and documents, I am able to sell it for a significant profit here. So, I started the search again. And, as always, when you search you find. So, let me introduce my newest catch (if everything goes as planned):   Red dot is there!  Was told it is like a torch!

Somehow in your earlier posts I missed the fact that the first one was a midsize; even though you had it in there plain as day .Hope the new one suits you better!

So very sweet Ral... ...honestly one of "THE" Seamasters to own IMO...I absolutely love this 2255.80 with the Blue Wave Dial (my other love is the classic black dialed 2254.50).Just something so right, so well done with these Omega classics...their design ensures they will never go out of style IMO...I hope to have them in the collection someday!!! And as I've heard...the Lume is absolutely fantastic!!! I have no doubt you will enjoy this one.

I love the electric blue Seamater and am sure you are going to dig it a lot. If the whole midsize thing was bugging you then I'm glad you made the move.

I agree with the comments above, sir. Go full-size and you will never look back. The 2255.80 with the blue wave dial is a fabulous look and a genuinely grailworthy watch. The plainer 5 link bracelet is just wonderful on the wrist and much more of a classic Omega look IMHO. I hope you enjoy the new one - we will sure enjoy seeing more pics of it! Cheers and congratulations! IanM hand6.gif

Beautiful, one of the best looking models from OMEGA and in fact it is close to the one I like the most, the classic older one... Hopefully you'll find the fit more satisfying then the earlier one.
