I really don't know what to think about the new Olympic Omegas. They look kind of cool, but a Seamaster with 60 meters water resistance feels weird. I think my girlfriend sums it up best. "That would be a really nice fifth watch, if it was € 100,- like a flikflak".
I have a Lanco watch ,it was my dads (he has died) all I know about it it’s automatic ;and Lanco were swallowed up by Omega ,and help .,history ,value would be nice
Congratulations Matini! And a great choice to go for the old version and a black dial! Wear it in good health for a long time.
I considered buying that exact model but in the end I decided to go for the 231.13.42.21.02.003 instead, leaving open the possibility for a SM300, PO or DeVille as my black watch. Looking at your picture makes me doubt that choice a little bit )
I haven't had a new watch in years... I bought a Speedmaster about 8 years ago and a Planet Ocean (QoS) about 5 years ago... so treated myself a little here!
I was set on the Seamaster from SPECTRE but I made the mistake of trying the Aqua Terra at the same time, just for the hell of it, and I couldn't believe how much I fell in love immediately. Kind of Bondian watch, and now my dressiest Omega for sure. I will be wearing it next week at the launch of the new Vantage...

Thank you! Good choice on keeping things free for a black-faced watch. All of my Omegas are black-faced which is interesting, and the white Aqua Terra is special, but I just fell for this in the end. I don't think you should regret the decision, you've chosen a beauty there.
Certainly not regretting my descision but when I see a black AT I can see why I had a difficult choice as I really love the look of that watch as well. I bought my blue SMPc about 5 years ago so who knows what kind of black watch I will buy 5 years from now

You haven't had that one out for a while, very nice mate B-)
Love the combination with the Nato band. -{
Put that bloody bezel straight though X-(
He is down with the cool people not having his bezel straight, the sock and sandal cool people
Exactly. He hasn't gone quite normal then. That's a relief.
Higgy + normal = fooked up, not sure the maths work out. Not that Im any good at Maths either
Very nice -{
I’ll have that when you are finished with it
I am using the bezels of my Subs and GMTs.
Aligning them at 12 is pointless and only posing

It would look very stylish on Mrs Higgins' wrist!
Perhaps Rolex like Omega blow up when you align them at zero?
Just class

For those who like Grand Seikos they are getting a bit trendy.
