Incoming - grey/blue Seamaster!

Hi all,

Love this timepiece, favourite aspects are the depth of the dial, hands and the micro adjustment built in the comfortable bracelet.

Relatively fantastic value for what you are getting when you consider the current market and whisper it….you can actually buy one!

Enjoy the pics!

You did a good job photographing this watch IMO. Always looks great in person and somehow underwhelming in photos. Enjoy in good health.

I also noticed this phenomenon... it's difficult to take a decent pic of this one. Maybe it's due to the PVD coating of the dial.
The other colors, like black, blue and so on, have dials without coating, just pure ceramic... so, I guess, this could be the reason

Cheers,
Michael

Congratulations! Love it. I went with the blue dial, but that is stunning. I’d be equally happy with that dial color.

I was so close to choosing that color combination but, went with the black chronometer. I absolutely love your color combination though.

Amazing dial. I have the white dial on gray alligator strap and I really like how it turned out. This would probably look amazing on a blue gator strap..

A couple more pics - The markers and hands really do stand out providing excellent contrast.

i love this rendition of the SMP over the other colors because the dial hands / markers are heat blued.....makes it more special imo.

Wear it in the best of health....congrats!

You picked the best of the bunch in my opinion! The dial really does pop. You took some great photos. Here’s mine:

Thanks! It is lovely on the rubber too so maybe will pick that up for a change.

Decided on the bracelet as the price difference is marginal and it is a lovely comfortable bracelet with the micro adjustment too.

Thanks - completely agree, never seen the heated blue markers before and when they catch the light it really blings!

Don’t forget the Omega Blue/Grey NATO. I think it works well with this color combo!
