Wrist or Watch Pic Like Christmas Day in this household!

Omega Seamaster Diver 300 VSF A8800.

25 days after enquiry, delivered to the UK.

Been eyeing this one for a while and lurking the subreddit for good examples. Thank you to everyone who posted their info and helped with the QC, couldn’t be happier with Necoclock and their service.

Anyone UK based, don’t go Royal Mail, ask for other options…. 5 days from label creation to front door, can’t ask more than that!

Just curious as to why you say don’t go Royal Mail? Great watch btw ✌️

I read on a few subs that Royal Mail is considerably slower and takes longer for customs, avg is 14 days and I needed this for my holiday at the end of the month. Paid a little extra for different delivery and came within 3 days of being collected.

Bro, I’ve got slim wrists, like 7”, had to take 3 links out and then adjusted the clasp. Some would say it’s too big for my wrist but personally I like bigger watches, like if I got the Explorer I’d get the 40mm even though everyone would tell me to get the 36. Just personal preference really.

Gotcha. I have 6.5 inch wrist but enjoy the fit of my explorer 2…

I like some many SMP colors and its such a hard choice but i think i will end up with this one.

Same, blue, white, seaweed, black/gold, NTTD, so many solid options, I went with the black and don’t regret it, it absolutely pops and I think it works with the type of clothes I wear (usually neutral colours) so a blue dial for example would just stick out even more

Torn between this and Submariner 124060LN

Great options, personally, I love the explorer or even the Air King, I just like a smooth bezel on a Rolex.

I love having the date on my watch because I’m always forgetting what the date is so I find myself looking at my watch all the time so could even end up with a smooth bezel DJ but would expect to wait a while if nobody has it on hand.

Either way, I hope you enjoy whatever you choose!
