Today I will buy an omega seamaster which looks more classic than my breitling super avenger and I am just curious about your thoughts about that watch.
The only reason for buying that is to have an omega.
Please make some comments.
Below you can click the link and see the watch.
By the way it is 2380chf,does it realy look like a watch which costs that money?

Well firstly I hope (primarily for your wallet's sake!) that you bought it for more than just the logo on the dial. If you aren't totally sold on a piece, you'll only end up selling it and that is likely to cost you money.

In terms of my thoughts on them, I think they are great entry level pieces. I personally "blame" the Omega Seamaster as one of the reasons for my love of luxury watches, and I've owned 3 of them in the past. They are decent enough watches, and certainly have a timeless appeal about them. I remember (in my youth!) once saying to a mate that I thought the Seamaster was almost the perfectly designed non-chronograph sports watch! (OK, I was young! :oops: But they are very nicely styled and reliable pieces).

Congratulations. I really like the Seamaster. Some people don't get too excited by them, but I think it's a great (and very distinctive) design.

Lovely watch that. I have a black 300M Chrono diver on the same strap and it is really comfy to wear, despite it being quite a thick and heavy watch (tho not particulariy wide at 41.5mm).

I really like it.
