Don't think I will take any better pictures so....







I have always admired this model from Omega but thought it might be a bit small at just under 42mm, but after seeing these pics and a brief conversation with Gumba/Oscar a couple days before I jumped on this one. The purchase is 2 fold but after a few PM's with Paxman..thanks for your help the other day BTW, it may never reach part 2dog smile.gif my thinking is I may gift this to my son on his wedding day next August...plenty of time to make that decisionsubtlelaugh.gif since I just gave him my Brietling money for deposits and such for the big daymistake.gif.

We will see when I get it, but this one just looks like the all around watch, sporty yet doesn't lose anything if worn with a suit and tie.

Anyway I'm excited and will post some pic's and thoughts when it arrives.

Congrats on this "on the way" 2254.50 Tony!!!

You are going to love it...at just under 42mm there is just something about the way these wear on the wrist...perfection IMO...and as you have already pointed out, sporty but also doesn't loose a thing when worn with a suit and tie.  It's going to be hard to "gift" this one when the time comes, and if you do I'm betting you will be wanting to get one for your selfish bad self!!! subtlelaugh.gif 

I can see this is an "older" vintage of 2254.50 judging from the front and the caseback, but it loses nothing IMO...although the first pic makes the seconds hand tip look a bit faded.  Would still love to see your pics when it arrives!

You are going to LOVE IT!

Thanks everyone for the kind replies....Chris that is one of the "issues" of the watch, the red has faded on the second hand, but I think it should be an easy fix.

That one is gonna stick with you or you'll get another. Truly a go to watch imho. I used mine all summer on rubber... well silicon, and will put it back on the bracelet soon enough. As already said, perfect combination of genres. Sporty, tough, handsome. Big congrats, buddy!

that is a MUST have for sure... you won't be disappointed and your son will nbever see it on his wrist I would bet :)
It is my favorite and one of the most versatile watch at ease with a suit at work, byt the pool and out for drinks in Jeans and Tshirt... it is also well built and perfectly sized to wear comfortable and be ok in all situations!
Wear it in good health!
