Very nice!
Off to la Suisse next week for some vacay too. Will we see new 2019 models in stores? This is just about the right time usually (mid-June) |

Same here. Normally, I wouldn't, but I've owned just about every SMP variant over the last 25 years, and wanted something special this time. This one made me smile more than the others.
It's TT, but the gold on the bezel is brushed, not polished, and the bracelet is not screaming at you either, but states unmistakably that it's a Bond Seamaster bracelet. I find it's a very well executed and balanced approach to this style of watch. Not over the top, at all. Not to me, anyways. Love it.

Bracelet? Hm...not sure it is better than the original rubber strap.

Beautiful pics. Have to agree it compares very favorably to a Rolex Sub. The blue one really pops out of the case at my local Omega AD. In the end I needed more black for my collection so ordered the new black ceramic titanium variant and am very much looking forward to it.

What kind of price negotiations can be expected from an Omega boutique or dealer? Specifically the blue dial on blue rubber.

None from a Boutique and it varies from dealer to dealer. Check posts here and other forums and you will see about 10-15 percent average from a dealer. Other may chime in with more specific info. I don't even know if supplies continue to be good with Omega with this particular model. Based on positive reviews, I wonder if they continue to be readily available or if they are beginning to be waitlisted.

Yea I got quoted 15% off at an AD in California for blue dial blue rubber last month. Beautiful watch and I may still go back and take him up on the offer. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Try Rob at Topper's. I got mine from him a few weeks back and was able to get a really good price

I've been shopping a two tone for a few months - seems most dealers I speak with are willing to do 15%, Jared's flat out told me 15% is the best they can do off the bat.

Wow! Great double incoming! These posts are too much! Congratulations on the duo!
BTW - good to hear from the posters on this thread that discounts can be had for a watch that is already reasonably priced. Quote:

I think 15% is about there. It's quite a popular watch so ADs are not inclined to discount more I think.

I want one, but I already have 4 watches. My wife would kill me.
