Changing the Subject ..... sort'a of

Received my 'new' Seamaster 2589.30 yesterday. I say new as the plastic film Omega wraps around the entire case was intact as well as the pictograph, warranty card(dated 2005)by the jeweler and the chronometer card plus thick book of about 15 languages. All the stuff based on my buying new. Anyway I set the watch around 1400 hours Tuesday. It is now 0800 hours Wednesday and it hasn't lost or gained a beat. Beautiful watch. Great looking dial as opposed to all the 'blue' dial Seamasters. I'd say silver in color, the sub dials are slightly darker. Hands are big and bold, as are minute markers. Date at 6 is easy to read. The center sweep seconds hand as well as the hands in the subdials are all red tipped. Again easy to read. Comfort, very nice, the bracelet was sized perfectly for a 15mm tall watch. No flopping or sliding. Permanent seconds at 9. Satisfied? Yep.
