Just wanted to drop in and say hello! I just purchased my first Omega in the form of a 3511.50. I'm super excited to get into the brand and can't wait until I can upgrade to something even nicer.

Nice. How'd you decide on this one? Have you compared the bracelet to the strap? How about a wrist shot? What part of the world do you call home?

It was more so, what would my budget allow, versus what I truly wanted. Haha. For me I love the date feature and the Panda look. These photos are from the seller, I've yet to receive the watch yet, but when I do, I will definitely be trying both straps and tossing up a wrist shot. I'm in Rhode Island in the States.

Lots of enablers here. No budget is exempt! Hold on to your wallet.

That's an attractive look. Plus you found box and papers. Nice set.

I think you'll find you have a lot of neighbors in the states surrounding you. Enjoy.

Welcome! Nice choice for your first Omega.

Speedmasters are a dangerous. Many members of the forum are infected. Impossible to be happy with just one. You'll have to fight the urge now.

Haha! Love me an ice cold Gansett in the summer. Whereabouts are you and what kind of Omega are you rocking?!

I’m in NK. My Omega fleet (thus far):

2010 Seamaster Planet Ocean 2500, orange bezel
2019 Speedmaster Professional 1861
2022 Seamaster Aqua Terra 38, blue dial

The rest of the world will have to Google Hi-Neighbor and ‘Gansett. As we know, it’s strictly a Rhode Island thing!

Ugh! The 2500 is what I really want, but I'm a ways out from being able to afford it. Haha

Welcome, nice watch, love the reverse panda look, congratulations 👍

I hope they push the crown in before shipping it 😉

BTW don’t forget that wrist shots are mandatory on this forum

Noted! Here's hoping it arrives safe. Yikes.
