Hi everyone ,
I'm Marco, from Italy and I landed on this forum because I find it has a great quality of content and a very well populated community.
I found a lot of essential information to read up on my latest purchase, a beautiful Seamaster 166.010.
Here it is and have a nice day!

Thank you! I found it here in Italy, even if it's a quite rare reference here.

Well, thank you! Unfortunately I don't own so many watches, but I hope the few I got may like to you 😉

sure with a black strap is very elegant, yet still sporty. But I'm looking for a nice BOR bracelet to pare it with...

Good plan as they always look better on the bracelet 👍

Hello Marco and welcome! You're definitely right about this forum, it's a great place to be and learn.

Lovely watch you have there -- I just recently got interested in the 166.009/166.010 references thanks to this place, and your picture really makes me want one even more. It looks very classy on the strap.

Thanks for your appreciation. I have to admit this watch is truly a beauty, I've never checked time so many times in a day 😁
