Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean - Advice needed
Hello All,
I like this watch a lot but don't want to overpay. Any thoughts about the model and the price would be appreciated! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Omega-Seamas...ht_1452wt_1037 I am looking at this one as well: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Omega-Seamas...ht_1564wt_1037 Thanks much! |

Weird, we both have the same name and I have both watches. Not going to comment on the price other to try and find an AD who is willing to make a deal. I love both watches, the LM is light and very comfortable. The 9300 is a thick monster but it looks bad@$$. Both great watches.

Funny that both Serge's like Omega's :)
I tried to find this watch through at AD but it's not easy. Thanks for the feedback! |

both great watches. for me, both are big watches. the 9300 is an absolute beast to me though. I am just OK with the 8500 case. depends, i think, on how big you are and what you are comfortable with.
again, both great watches. the prices for both seem pretty reasonable to me. buy the seller as much as the watch.

LOL...I actually bid on this exact 9300...but gave up at $5650. I can pick up a brand new one from a number of reputable sources for around $6200...so I don't see a reason to go much higher on eBay from a guy I don't know (although this seller appears to be legit).
At any rate, I expect this bid to go at least another $300-$500 (and maybe more...this exact seller sold a 9300 about a week ago for a tad under $7K...still don't know why someone would pay that when they can be had for almost a grand less ). |

DO NOT buy from eBay.
If you want that watch at a good price, PM me. I can put you in touch with a proper AD that will do you right. :-)

I ordered a 8500 a few weeks back from an AD and received a great deal. Now if it would only get here!
