Seamaster 36th American Cup

Hello,

What do you think of this limited edition? Is it too sporty? Is the only way to make it dressier is with SS bracelet? Is it better or one of the earlier versions for the American cup? Would it hold value in resale? Can you get it with the usual discount you get on other omega watches?

Thanks

I know;I thought to get a perspective from the Omega lovers :) Thank you though for the candid input ... what do you think will be fair discount on this one?

Here is a good write-up on that watch. No idea on discounts since it is a LE but you can always ask. Ask for 25 and see what they counter with.

Its a bit of a jumble of design elements but I kind of like it. Not sure I would buy it but its certainly different.

I like it.... the white dial is beautiful, it suits the Planet Ocean.

Kinda steep pricing wise. The 2016 Olympic I had is slightly less and comes with strap + bracelet.

Because this thread needs a picture...

Great looking watch. Love the cup on the end of the seconds hand.

I think I would have preferred if all the hands were blue with white tips. Not sure I dig the red and white hands.
