Despite Omega having these on their website, they have been discontinued. I've had no luck in finding one neither new or used so am turning to PH for help!
If anyone can find me one, or wants to sell me one, please drop me a line or reply here. The exact model I am after is the 2231.50.00

Cheers smile

Since you don't say where you are, you might try calling Bedfords Jewellers in Ruislip, Middx on 01895 632 100 and ask to speak with Rob or his brother.

They found me a titanium Yachtmaster a few months ago and are particularly skilled in finding and presenting unusual watches. I've bought quite a few bits and bobs from them over the years and they're very straight up and (depending on the item) can be "negotiable" for regular customers.

I'm just a happy customer of theirs for many years

Thanks Steve, will give them a try tomorrow as I'm in near by Berkshire.

Watchfinder.co.uk seem quite optimistic at locating one for me but they want 20% down to do so.

Thanks for that. I actually managed to source a 150th Anniversary Ti version and received it last night. Very happy with it too!

Another recommendation for CS Bedfords in Ruislip. The best Omega dealer in UK.
And another vote for them here as well, I ordered my titanium Seamaster through Bedfords almost 2 years ago now.

I'd also try the Omega showroom in London, as when I was looking to get mine, this was the only place that actually had a titanium in stock to try on and look at in detail.

I went into the Westfield Omega store today to have the bracelet adjusted. The guy in there looked at it like he had never seen one before. I'll keep Bedfords in mind for the future though.

I was refering to the one in Old Bond St.

I would imagine the staff would be far better.
