: The rest of you can just talk amongst
: yourselves I guess...
: In 1999 while browsing in a watch store, I saw
: what I thought was
: the most beautiful watch I'd ever seen. The
: Omega Seamaster
: Professional, 2254.50. Remember when the watch
: wasn't even
: available in the US? Remember it came on the
: Bond style bracelet
: down there, and people were scrambling to find
: one on the Speedy
: style bracelet, available only in Canada and
: abroad?
: Well, I bought it. That single act started me
: on a course of
: buying, selling and trading that resulted in my
: probably owning a
: hundred different watches over the years. About
: five years ago, I
: gave my oldest son the 2254 for a gift. I spent
: the next five
: years, trying to replicate that feeling I had
: almost ten years
: ago, and was unsuccessful.
: A few days ago, I had an epiphany. "Get,
: another one!". That's
: exactly what I did. It arrived this morning,
: and I couldn't be
: happier. I said it then and I'll say it now,
: "Arguably the best
: looking watch Omega or anyone else, has ever
: made."
: Brand spanking new, right out of the box...
:
: Nothing left to do now, but retire from all
: this I guess.
Beautiful! And the date is correct even!
