    @Cole I was eyeing up an Omega CK 859 with 30% off over the summer.

    Unfortunately, I couldn't reclaim VAT on it (thanks Brexit), and would have been liable for GST and import duty on return to Australia. 😞

    So it didn't happen...

      @Cole I wouldnt turn that down if you can help it. I have been waiting on my 75th anni but I would take the Bond over it any day at that price.

        Yes I know, but 7.5k € is more then I can spare at the moment, even if it is a very good price for a brand new, somewhat limited, Omega with all the paperwork.

        Plus I allready own the very first Bond Omega, which makes it very hard to explain to my wife, why this one is also very appealing. 🙂

              @Anesthetist nice! Weren't you eyeing one of those up a few months ago?

              Now put it on one of the Omega mesh bracelets!

                @Anesthetist Very nice. Are you loving the dial? What's it like in different light? I've had a bit of a soft spot for the Vintage version of Seamaster 300 75th.

                  @Graeme I was! I had seen one at our local omega boutique and got in contact in my authorized dealer that discounts. I had to wait a few months but saved quite a bit of money and taxes so that’s a win for me!

                    @Mr-Linz I like it very much and Omega’s press release photos dont do it justice. It was dark when I got home last night so I’ll get some sunny pics today 😀

                                    @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.
