    Hello: Well we all have to start somewhere and after a few months of study I have purchased this Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 2218.50 as my first Omega watch. I think this is a solid double base hit for my first at bat. The colors just drew me in and the specs with the Chrono were very neat for me. I will now search for the correct metal bracelet to return the watch to it's original character. Anyway this is my introduction the group.

    Pumpkin for the win. Well done on a lovely watch. I actually like the orange leather. Add a bracelet but keep the orange strap and change it out for a errrr change!

    I was surprised how close the leather matched the bezel color...
