I've complained lately about the prices of the new in-house pieces from different brands, so I've decided to go 'down' market.

My latest acquisition - been looking for one of these off and on for a while. Finally found an excellent condition used piece. Physically a nice fit for me :D .

Thanks,
I'll have to get some better pics - took them in the evening and had to use flash.
Seeing yours a while back got me on the lookout again.

Omega ain't down market IMO, they make a fine timepiece. Great pick up, enjoy!! You and shark have the nicest version of the SMP, I love that one.

Very true. I was referring to spending less on an older discontinued model vs. one of their new in-house models.

Thanks for comments guys!
