Dark Side Pitch Black today

I know these are fairly expensive Omegas, circa 8.5k or so, but amazing VFM given they are machined out of a single block of ceramic, and even the crown and crown tube are ceramic. I'd love one.

Over 9k now with the recent price rise.
Be shelving an awful lot of that money if you ever wanted to resell.

Lovely watch though!

Treated myself to this this morning as fancied a new holiday watch with a rubber band. Was torn between the blue and a black one; got a few black watches so went for the blue. My first Omega too; they do come in a really nice box aswell.

Lovely.

I like the fact that these have the co-axial escapement as invented by George Daniels.... every bit as good as a Rolex, if not better in some respects.

Oooh v nice. Been thinking of picking one up this week, and torn between which dial to go for. Thinking either black or blue (will be on rubber too).

Any more pics of that pls??

Thanks!

What did you get discount wise ?!

Thanks Rog, looks brilliant.

My second Breitling, this time an avenger 2 black steel limited edition, love the carbon fibre face and over all feel. Black steel Breitlings have always been on my radar!

I didn't think it would be for me, but I really like it. They've got a lot going for them. It was a toss up between this and the Octo Finissimo really, as a casual sporty watch. Happy to have stepped in on this. They're both terrible "investments" but make me happy which is what counts.

The blue aqua terra with rubber strap was surprisingly lovely too. It's on the list for future watching.

And here's the Aqua Terra that almost got a look in. As a "one watch to do it all" this would be close for me.

That's an absolute beauty.

These are lovely. I’ve got the previous model which was a wedding present from my wife but wouldn’t say no to one of these as well.

Just picked this up as an early Christmas present. I fancied something a bit dressier as an antidote to my diver and chronographs. I had been after a Visodate but after trying one on, I didn't gel with it. Very tall watch! I've always admired the Presage range and fell in love with the dial on this one.

Nice watch. I have 5 Presage and they are beautiful and very under-rated, which I like.
