            @Mr-Linz I saw the Seamaster 300 Summer Blue in Melbourne yesterday and would agree it's a very pretty watch. I like how the lume on the hands and dial is done in a pale blue. Unfortunately I didn't get to try one on because the Omega boutique was busy with a bunch of Chinese tourists who were actually buying watches! 😁

              The diver 300 chat is also inline with my current thinking. I have been eyeing up the black/black ceramic version of the diver 300.

              @Anesthetist Lovely pick up, congrats, a lovely version of a classic.

                Possibly the last watch I buy…late celebration of turning 50 (last year) and being debt free…

                  @goosehd if that is to be your last watch purchase, it was a great way to sign off.

                  Very nice.

                      One of the rare gold watches that I just love. Well played

                      Think it, be it.

                        That Pelagos FXD is really calling me. They have a new one with unidirectional bezel, unfortunately in black.

                          It’s a great watch but for me the blue is king. Mine is the MN22 caseback.

                            Was it the 21 or 22 that was the first year in those?

                              @Graeme Hahaha I'd didn't know they were readily available to look at in the boutiques, I'll pop into the one here in LA and see for myself. Very cool!

                                @goosehd Mate, that's such a beauty, no I way I can afford that right now, but the solid rose gold rooty is just such a perfect choice. Lovely!

                                  @Mr-Linz I saw the Seamaster 300 in the Sydney and Melbourne boutiques. Australia tends to be the last market to get new releases from Omega, and Sydney usually receives them before Melbourne.

                                  I think that the only Summer Blue watch that hasn't arrived yet is the Ploprof.

                                  @goosehd is that "debt free until I blew all my money on a Rolex"? 😁

                                  As others have said, it's a very nice watch.

                                        I was off window shopping on Monday. Richemont have a conjoined IWC, Panerai, and Jaeger LeCoultre boutique in the middle of Sydney, and I got waylaid by the brand manager of Panerai Australia on the way through. He forced me to look at a number of pieces, nothing as fancy as that tourbillion that @Giles was modelling, and here are some highlights.

                                        This is the PAM01347 Radiomir Otto Giorni. It's got an eight-day hand-wound movement. The case had been finished with a DLC coating that looked as though it had been mostly worn off.

                                        Radiomir Otto Giorni

                                        The PAM01243 Radiomir Eilean celebrates their historic racing yacht Eilean, which was designed by William Fife, and featured in the video for Duran Duran's song Rio. There's a subtle teak deck effect on the dial, which I consider more tastefully done than the stripes on the Omega Aqua Terra. It's got a three-day hand-wound movement, and a decorative case back.

                                        Radiomir Eilean

                                        The PAM01297 Luminor Chrono Flyback Zebra has a titanium case, which I told was 3D printed. The orange strap isn't standard, but it should be.

                                        Luminor Flyback Zebra

                                        The Jaeger section of the boutique didn't have a passing brand manager, but it had the new Polaris Chronograph, which is quite pretty.

                                        Polaris Chronograph

                                        I saw the Reverso Chronograph back in April, but it was a pre-production sample, and I wasn't allowed to take a photo. This time there wasn't a problem. The main face resembles a standard model, whilst the back is a skeletonised. It's gorgeous, but reassuringly expensive.

                                          Wearing the Sinn 556 today. I have a job that deals with helicopters and I like that the handset is the same as those found in our cockpit clocks. Slim enough to slide under my IH flannel sleeves nicely as well...
