Never thought I would see the day...

Where a respected seller in TRF classifieds would refer to an Omega SeaMaster Professional ref# 2254.50 as "rare" but I kinda guess they have become so. Don't see many for sale like a few years ago and finding one in mint condition is becoming quite the rare sighting indeed.

It's a 2054.50

A 2254.50 with a Bond bracelet.

I dunno how rare it is but certainly not as common as the 2254.50

I sold my 2254.50 for $1375 just before they jumped in price. I could kick myself, lol.

I used to have the really rare Titanium SMP with the Bond bracelet. I regret selling that.

It's all figurative cause a speedy in 2007 was only about 1500-1600. look at them now

The 2054 is a fairly rare SMP.

Don't see them too often, and when they do turn up, they are sold pretty fast.

My wife has the ladies quartz SMP, with the same type of dial and sword hands as the 2054.50 has. It's a stunner.

I picked up my LNIB 2254, all paper work and tags, 2008 model for $2000. Cdn. last March.

At the time minty examples on ebay and crono24 were listed at $2000.US and up.
