I’ve finally seen the Spectre Omega 300 in real life yesterday and I really like it very much.
Unfortunately the brushing on the side flanks is not very good - looks like from a cheap Timex.
The grain is not perfectly straight and the material was not perfectly even before they have been brushing it.
They’ve showed me several civil 300s and all of them looked the same.

I understand what it's all about now. I've had a look on Watchfinder and the SS Daytonas that are less than a year old consistently cost more on there than they do at retail price. Thanks to everyone who gave answers to my question.
Wednesday and time to show one of my recent favorites:
We all know that Nomos makes great watches but their design is a bit too minimalistic for my taste.
Recently discovered the Club which I find incredible!
Hope that they will put their new movement inside (from the Minimatic)

It's not Wednesday but hey I just completed my Skyfall collection!
Cheers :007)
I want to get the Aqua Terra so bad! Omega has discontinued this model, and now has new Master Coaxial model, with the mirror mid-links bracelet. Not a fan of that!
The new master co-axial AT appears to be the second Spectre watch (and DCs current personal wearer which I guess is his Onega duty as brand ambassador)
I was not a fan of the new version until I tried it on recently
Yes, it's the 38.5. I was worried about the lack of a window date frame and the PCL's. When I opened the box I was really impressed by this watch. Photo's don't do it justice

Having the Skyfall AT I just could not justify another with a few cosmetic and mech differences.
Wanted the PO for a while so took the shot when one came up! Pondering the SM300 but then this my lot for a while!!

I have a question for the Seiko connaisseurs and especially you Higgmeister. I hear people complain about the Seiko product placement in the Moore movies because they were “cheap” watches. I was wondering if they really were cheap compared to Rolex etc. or were they the dog’s in those days and about equally priced?

Is there a waiting list for them still?
Not even that will make much difference. You could lose your agency by doing that.

For once we agree
I don't know enough about watches to notice the rest you mentioned...but I know that it's a great looking watch -{

That looks very large! 45.5?
No it's the 42mm wears big but funny camera angle as well :-)
45mm looks like a flying saucer on my wrist
Cheers :-)
