·My bezel moves, but rarely. Maybe it moves every 15th day i wear it, and I probably catch it on something. It hardly moves without some effort. Second Gen. I doubt i will ever sell this watch.

It really is a fantastic watch. I've still off and on again considered picking up the dark blue version that you have. It really works.

·Hmmm…perhaps a tad aggressive with the tone?
I've noticed he has quite few posts, and I've also noticed a TON of his that are pretty terrible. I've come to the conclusion very quickly that he's a very unpleasant person to have anything to do with.
As far as the Heritage: I have a blue 2-layer-dial one and love everything but the bracelet (which I think doesn't look 'vintage' enough), so I've swapped that for a strap and am very happy with mine.

Yeah, I think something like the Apollo 11 50th anniversary bracelet would have given it a more vintage feel, but I really, really, really find the bracelet comfortable so I'm pretty happy with it the way it is.
Eh... but I really like the current Seamaster professional bracelet with no taper as well so, maybe I'm just not as picky with bracelets

That said, a pretty wonderful watch, no complaints from me.

··history nerdI had the 1st generation Master Co-axial for about seven years, and loved it - I wore the heck out of it. The bezel moved every now and then, when I was pulling my arm through the sleeve of a winter coat, for instance. But it was tighter than the bezel on the Trilogy version, which I acquired a few years ago - I reluctantly sold my Master Co-axial for it. But I love the Trilogy edition, and it will never leave my collection.

·I currently wear my "seaweed" green SMP a lot more, but that's no real indication of what I'll do in the future.
The green is better than the summer blue. Subjectively. Anyone who doesn't think so is dumb and doesn't know watches like I do.

·I mean, you guys can fight over that one all you want, but the White is clearly the best.
What, so you can wear it with your all white Nikes? GROSSSSS

·Summer blue, green or white, clearly the black is a knock.out!
It has no problems with the bezel turning either.

·There is a point at which a shared "subjective" is shared as if fact.
... which is exactly what you did do. We don't share our experience as subjective by stating it like you did. And two years later in your post here, pretty clear you hold this as more than just subjective opinion. There's really no reason to hide behind that old and tired internet favorite.
To be clear: this isn't a case where I got upset by being corrected and then went on an ad hominem attack (which, this doesn't even fit the definition)- this is a case where I was trying to initially counter your objectively backed "subjective" opinion gently and kindly and patiently and in a non-confrontational manner.
Since then, I've seen how you've interacted with others (here's an example: https://omegaforums.net/threads/the-great-aqua-terra-debate.94624/post-2461087), and you seem to have a pointlessly abrasive streak.. I doubt you'll change, but you hopefully can stop being a hypocrite?
Anyway
I still have mine with no intention to sell. Still keeps great time, still fits amazingly well, still has a fantastic dial. I currently wear my "seaweed" green SMP a lot more, but that's no real indication of what I'll do in the future. I wore the summer blue almost every single day for two years.
Not really as described. I am not presenting opinion as fact. I made it clear the issue of bezel action is subjective. What I am doing is citing evidence of my research that helped form that opinion. I tested a dozen and a half Seamaster 300s with aluminium bezels, they were all rubbish. I also tested several of the new Planet Ocean watches and compared them all with the Seamaster Diver (of which I have owned three) and the previous generation Planet Ocean (of which I have owned four) but not just from my own collection but from examples available in store too. This formed my opinion that the Seamaster 300 aluminium bezels and new PO bezels were not very good. Opinions are, as the saying goes, like a***holes, everyone has one. Some are more valid than others being based on experience and research. It seems your opinions are strong on the matter. What makes that interesting is that your opinions have their own a***hole.

·Such a great movie. Jesus really likes licking those big balls.
I've been listening to/reading the Dungeon Crawler Carl books and there's an Uzi Jesus bit that's really hysterical. Unrelated to Jesus in the Big Lebowski, but hilarious

·You would meet a lot less resistance if you dropped the condescending tone. We are a group of people enjoyably discussing our hobby/passion. You come in like you're a manager who needs to keep his subordinates in line. You can correct the record without being a d***.
You acted the same way in the Aqua Terra thread.
