    A purchase that's been in negotiation for the last 3 months... terrible pictures, and a seller who had a bit of an odd attitude.

    Fingers crossed that what I've bought is legit - if not, PayPal buyer protection shall be called upon! ;)

    Cheaper than a lot of the other seamsters... and no He valve... but what I think is a cool complication. I realise I may be alone in that... :)

    He had it up at £1900, then has been nocking off £100 a month since December - we got down to a price I was happy with, and I bought it yesterday... should be here after the bank holiday.

    But fair.

    Shouldn't that be "28 things you can get done in 196 minutes?"

    As spiffy as the watch is, I think I should avoid buying one myself. I do like it though and I hope you enjoy it.

    I like that it doesn't have a date... All the Seamaster dive watches seem to have dates... Not sure why.

    Me too! But picked up at a price where if I don't like it, it can be moved on. :)

    @tyrantlizardrex I believe there is a VERY nice Seamaster without a date in my opinion...............

    It is very nice... But it's also a lot more expensive.

    Equally for some reason these don't come to mind when I think Seamaster Diving watch... More desk diving... ;)
