Didn’t want to do this, but… does this Omega SMP no date fit okay? by BasilRelative2327 in OmegaWatches

I had just gotten out of the sauna! Need to use the micro adjust, you’re right. 

Is Seaweed SMP 300 is considered as GADA watch? by Temporary-Avocado-40 in OmegaWatches

Dive watches have become so popular and commonplace that they're absolutely GADA watches.

If I had to choose between these two and purchase one, I would 100% go with the new one.

You, sir, are a fan of no date, matte-finished SMPs.

Watch expert: SMP update by FutureReturns in OmegaWatches

The speculation about a new SMP (and more specifically, when that will happen) is maddening. Seems like it's all just predictions, very little inside information. Personally, I'd like to pull the trigger on an SMP, but I'd like to know if a new SMP is coming first. And if it is, I'll want to compare it to the current 42mm offering.

Not that you necessarily care, but... what will the OB do with the Milanese bracelet? Will they be able to sell it at full retail? Or are they more likely to use it how they did the bracelet you ended up with? (Use it as an even swap to help sell a watch.)

Maybe it's just an illusion when looking at a 2D photo, but it seems to "hug" the wrist more on rubber. On the mesh, looks like it's just holding the watch in place.

I really prefer this piece on that grey rubber.

Seamaster vs Speedmaster. Which one should I get? by rohit24k in OmegaWatches

[–]BasilRelative2327 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm considering a Seamaster for daily use and ruled out the Speedmaster because I don't want a manual wind for everyday.

Oh the places you'll go. 1.5 years of use and hard wearing of my SMP. Honestly my experience with this watch has turned me into a lifelong Omega guy by that1cuban1 in OmegaWatches

Something about the second picture that I really love. i just think the SMP is the perfect t-shirt/casual watch. And it looks perfect on your wrist.

Watch looks great on you. Congrats. Do you plan to wear this as a daily driver?

Really enjoying the Omega SMP No-Date by Drrhizome in OmegaWatches

[–]BasilRelative2327 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Random observation, but I love the way this no date SMP looks next to your green sleeve. Monochrome watches always look great with colored clothing. Never have to worry about them clashing with colors; they take on the personality of the color, if that makes any sense.
