    Is there some way to send remote shocks – just enough to sting – through the keyboards of posters like this? :rolleyes:

    Just send me a hate filled pm :)

    Holding a newborn and typing with one hand, just wanted to get a quick answer.

    The auction ended. You do realize this had a quartz movement, which sell for less than ones with automatic movements.

    Got it overnighted for $1,540. From what I can tell Quartz seem to be going around this price but man I don't know what some here might know.

    All I know is I've always wanted a 300.

    Well now you have one. :thumbsup:

    It's in great condition, recently serviced and will not give you the troubles that those darn mechanical contraptions will.

    Enjoy it!

    Well congrats! Enjoy! Like Jim said, it should be care free for awhile with the fresh service.

    Thanks, hope to get into Omega a little more soon. Really have always loved the brand, just always put my money elsewhere.

    Welcome to the forum. Be sure to post a few pictures of your new watch on your wrist when it arrives, on the WRUW thread.
    Top tip: Pictures of the newborn in the background are sure to garner lots of "likes"! :thumbsup:

    I'll have too, I'll get them up tomorrow.

    I don't know if this was the right section to post this thread but was busy and hands full, and wanted to justify the purchase quickly in my head!

    Now I am curious why my watch doesn't have the applied omega logo and red sea master?

    Earlier version. The one the OP purchased will be the model released concurrently with the coaxial Diver 300M, 2220.80. Yours would be concurrent with 2531.80.

    Got my answer, thanks.

    I did quite a bit, but there's a lot to learn. When I had the chance to jump after tons of negotiating with 10 other sellers at what I thought was a good value I jumped.

    Wife wanted me to put the phone down as well haha

    That's what I once said and 3 years later had twin girls. But now I'm really done!

    You mean Sean Connery in Moonraker or Geoge Lazenby in Goldfinger, or perhaps Moore in The Living Daylights, or was it Dalton in Never Say never Again?
