(Highly) unexpected incoming

I won't go on a long rant here, but suffice to say I'd never really considered buying an omega for whatever reason (have a 1 rolex and 1 breitling) but when this came up at a local AD at massive discount I couldn't say no. These come as a set of 5 watches each one an Olympic ring colour. I'm really happy with it.

Looks great! Highly legible, rock solid movement, and awesome case design/wearability as is typical for omega

Local ad has a new set still, comes with a cool bell. It isn't 30k usd cool, though. Neat you snagged an individual one in a color you like.

It is neat, very. The green was very nearly snapped up by someone else. They still had a red and gold but my heart was set on the green.

Really? The AD I brought mine from has the full set you've described at £16,000. Sounds like a serious bargain for anyone interested. What's that ≈ $24000?

Lunns in Belfast (not sure if I should be plugging) but very very satisfied with their business. And this is the first and only time I've dealt with them. Would recommend.
