    In the past I never would've looked twice at this brand. But I love my seamaster 2264 and liked the look of the aqua Terra but can't afford when yet.
    This watch is pretty nice 20190827_070903.jpg 20190827_070846.jpg

    Good on you, many here have bought a watch to tide us over until we find what we want.



    How’s the lume on it.

    If you like ... Congratulations, it's a good buy.
    And the truth is, it's a beautiful piece!

    I always said I would never buy a Bulova, until I found this one:

    I love Omega, Rolex, Tissot and other great brands, but my opinion is, if you like the watch and you can. You must have it.

    I totally understand where you are coming from and the watch is nice but I don’t agree that you should have purchased it. Let me explain.

    So you want an AT. Gorgeous watch. I’d love one myself.
    Last year I wanted a Rolex. Couldn’t afford it. What did I do? I got a Tudor. It scratches the proverbial itch for a time but then I realised something. I wanted a Rolex but settled with a Tudor. I wasn’t happy in the long run and realised I wasted my $. I was lucky enough to get a good sale on it so I walked away without loosing on it.

    If you really want the AT, save until you can get it. In the long run you will be happier.

    Just my opinion. And yes I did get the Rolex. No I don’t have it now, why? I got an OMEGA for it.

    I had this black bay and I swapped it for this 6694 oysterdate precision. Then I swapped the Rolex for the seamaster. Oysterdate was just the watch. Seamaster has box and papers.

    Your OysterDate reminds me of my grandfather's watch that I inherited in 1987, but was later stolen in 2011 (not saying it's that actual watch). I miss it.

    It was a great watch and held time perfectly but it was time to go as the omega proved too good to pass up.

    You get where I was going with the comment thought right? Wasn’t trolling. I don’t have 1 watch that i have because it looks like one I want. I have them because I want them.

    Like I said it’s just my opinion so tell me to shut it if I’m outa line. It’s still a nice piece but the AT is the bomb.

    There was an AT going cheap here in Sydney but it was a quartz. Still looked the business

    Well sadly none of it is cheap for me. Feel on hard times so I'm back to the cheaper brands for now. All I have left is my seamaster 2264

    Dont let it get you down mate. Just start saving bit by bit, sell off stuff around the house you don’t need at all and haven’t used in ages and slowly it will come together.

    I’m not rich. It took me a long time and a fair amount of luck and gestimating to get my 6 watches.
