Hi all

Just a heads up that Florence OB have the small seconds in stock in the store. Confirmed with them yesterday but unfortunately my travel to Italy has been cut short and I can’t get there so just passing on the stock info.

Regards

Josh

The Omega Boutique in Malaysia had one in stock maybe 2 weeks ago (Pavillion Shopping Centre if anyone is interested). small seconds. Not sure if it has been bought. Good luck to those hunting for one.

There seems to be the occasional one on the secondary market too, in case you do not want to pay full-price. This model seems like a good one to be patient with.

I am waiting on one as well.

Just curious, has anyone seen any shots of these models on the alternate straps? I have the small seconds ordered and I am intrigued to see it on the blue or nato straps.

Hi

Not sure if you got this picture but here you go.

I picked up mine this week. Small seconds - lovely. Only gripe is the caseback. Don't know why they engraved the glass.

Seems to be a small seconds available here in case someone is looking for one.

I also saw the small seconds in Brussels in the window of an omega store if someone wants it.

Was passing through Schipol in Amsterdam a few weeks ago and both versions of the new 1948 Seamaster were available at the OB in duty free. Tried them both on — preferred the small seconds — but they both wore very thick. Definitely prefer the vintage version.

Absolutely love my small seconds.

Edit
Oops didn’t realise padders had posted a pic already of the bullring duo - slow 3G when I saw this thread
