    That’s brand new? I thought that was new? They take trades of other omegas ? I’d like to trade this one in, thoughts??

    They have been out of production for awhile now.

    The Jomashop watch is brand new. They are a grey market seller though; I do not think they buy used watches.

    IMO it is hard to decide what is a good price once you go to the grey market

    Authorized dealers are forced to take stock, sometimes they cannot sell them, so they sell them at a huge discount to a 2ndary reseller. These watches normally have no warranty and are new, but not sold from an authorized seller... ie grey market.

    You can find a full sized Speedmaster for the same price.

    What’s considered “ full sized” versus non? In your opinion?

    It’s 40mm the bigger change is the slooped vs flat bezel which changes its proportions more then the 2mm difference.

    If you've got a midsize Seamaster now maybe the reduced will be ok for you.
    Jomashop is no official Omega dealer. They have got their own warranty.
    I would ask first what they would pay for your watch as the midsize is not very searched after.

    That Speedmaster is ugly. Your 2252.50 is wayyyyy cooler. Don't trade it.

    Your Seamaster 2252 is cooler but that’s my opinion if you are not digging the 2252 anymore and like the blue racing speedmaster then sell the Seamaster and get the watch that makes you happy.

    Yeah , I still
    Dig it, I have an aqua terra 43 large face also, and I’m a big guy, so the smaller ones wouldn’t look so good.
    Thanks for the advice

    Same size at 40mm. It came in a few different colors. I’m almost positive the bezel is the same part number.

    I’ll be honest though i’m 6’4 and a 7.25/7.5 wrist and I rarely wear it as it feels small. I much prefer my pro or non chrono 36-38mm watches.

    Great advice , I’m 6’5 and 260, so I tend to like watches that are bigger . I have a pam that’s a 44 a sub Rolex and a few omegas ) one overdosed seamaster aquaterra that’s a 43? I believe I can take a pic for ya. I don’t mind a smaller face every once in a while. In suits etc, sometimes it’s welcomed.
    So what speedmaster models are larger faced that you’d reccomend ?
