Into the GREEN

Hey all,

2022 novelties caught my eye - love a green diver! Called around to my A.D who said they haven't received any of the 2022 releases yet.

Got in touch with the manager at one of the Omega Boutiques via a friend. They had one in stock, tried to do some negotiation but they weren't budging (did offer a free rubber strap though)

Placed the order on Sunday, to my door today.

Kitchen knife out - bracelet off and rubber on (wish I asked the boutique to just do this for me)

Absolutely love it, the green is my favourite green (bottle / British / mini cooper Green)

The lume is amazing and I can't believe how comfortable the watch is - I really wish I got into the SMP ages ago.

If you're on the fence about picking one up I'd definitely do so - yeah I could have got a nice discount at my A.D but I'm pleased I pulled the trigger. 20220712_120451.jpg20220712_120818.jpg20220712_121158.jpg20220712_122543.jpg20220712_133959.jpg

Congrats. You should get the green JLC Reverso for a dress watch to continue the green theme.

Very nice. I had a call from a boutique a couple of weeks ago, so tried it on but wasn’t in a position to proceed right then. It’s a lovely watch, and for my money better on the rubber. Congrats

Congrats! As a fellow Hulk owner, I don't know that I could go with another green watch - but this new SMP looks very cool.

Great addition. Agreed — you may want to add the Moonshine green Speedy and/or the YG and green BB58.

Congrats, looks good

Is the green as dark as it looks in the photos or is that just the light messing with it as it does the Hulk sometimes? Almost looks black compared to the other watches.

It is a dark green, in some lighting it looks black definitely.

The lighting does make the colour pop more though.

Congratulations. I really like this green Omega. For me this one have the best look with rubber strap. Originally its coming on green rubber strap but I would like to see one on black rubber strap.

I would love to try one, I’m really liking these pictures but I need to see one in the flesh before. Congrats on your new watch

That looks terrific. Hey throwing in the green strap on a brand new release ain't such a bad deal. I can't decide which of the trio I like the best. Congrats
