I was worried about the fit on my 7.25 wrist, but it wears great. In fact,I bought all three color variations on bracelet. I may be the only person that has. It makes other watches I have seem like toys😂
I actually went to an AD yesterday and they had this same exact configuration which is the one I wanted as well. I think the fluted bezel is too flashy for me and it’s more common. You don’t see many Datejusts with the jubilee bracelet and smooth bezel very often. It’s a classic look.
Not convinced by this small second, also date in that same place makes it feel busy when comparing to other parts of dial. I think I like normal second version more. Also Omegas are too thick imo.
A ‘Special’ review? How come? ‘Allowed to get hands on’? You mean, given to you for you to show and advertise it? You underestimate YT viewers, you grovel to dealers, you advertise the watch and get YT fees or whatever for doing so. Good luck to you.
I own this and share your thoughts exactly. It’s obvious Omega didn’t phone this in. From the steel formulation to the attention to detail it represents a serious Omega.
Of course he wants first dips on buying your old watch, he will low ball you, then once they take your watch, it goes to polish and he puts it into the CPO case for sale at a high premium. He or Rolex could care less about tracking down gray market activity. You mean to tell me with all the technology we have, Rolex with the resources they have couldn't track down and stop gray dealers if they wanted to?
Great video. I have this same sub 126610LV and was looking to see how a rubber strap would look. Perfect video. Gonna check out the Everest site! Thanks!
I just got this watch as a gift. I understand that feeling the movement with this watch while wearing it is to be expected. But it is pretty loud also, is yours loud?
The engraved design on the back is NOT a SCUBA diver, it is a helmet (or hard hat diver). SCUBA means Self Contained Underwater Breather Apparatus, whereas a helmet has air pumped down to it from the surface. If you are going to wear a "diver's watch" you should know the difference! 🤿🤣
I have this in black on black. It's extremely accurate and has such a presence. It's look is elegant enough to wear with a suit and sporty enough to wear to a concert or the park.
I see one for sale (pre owned) Seamaster planet ocean chronometer / blue face.. the motor is 8500 not 8800.. Anything I shoud be aware of before I purchase? Thank you Joe
One thing I know is there’s no quick tool less adjust on the bracelet with the 8500. I believe, the bezel, while ceramic, the black is painted therefore scratchable on the 8500.
You should get yourself one! I have the avenger hurricane 45mm which is basically the older brother of this one and I love it, although I have also the new super chronomat ice blue and the superocean and other watches the hurricane is the one I might have the biggest emotional connection, this is why I understand what you mean when you felt connection. It’s so rugged, tool military looking kinda ugly in the most beautiful of ways. And yes after almost 4 years looks still like new and unstoppable. 🎉❤ great review btw love you putting emotions in it. Cheers
