Omega SM 2562.80 midsize finally...

After a bit of strife, my little SM is finally complete as to how I had it in mind. Black bezel insert arrived and the original Omega 18mm strap is on.

This is to me the perfect polo shirt watch and is low key, blending in nicely .. no brick on the wrist and wears a bit larger due to the black insert me thinks...

My watch guy took the 2nd pic in his “studio”...



Just need to locate a deployment clasp at a reasonable price and I’m good to go

I've only seen it with a blue dial (the omega website confirms it too).
I still like the combo though!😉

Yes, blue dial, the main reason is because I got hold of the impossible to find original double ridged curved end strap in black.. and the brown strap idea was history.

I also wanted the watch to wear a bit bigger and the chrome bezel looked smaller contrasting on the dial. However, unexpectedly this dial just can’t look blue anymore. It looks grey even in bright sunlight with the black bezel. So it’s probably a Smokey dark blue I think and showed blue due to the original mirror polished look of the original bezel

I’m no photographer but hopefully this pic in the sun this morning explains... I’m really stoked, was a bit worried about the blue, but there are some great black/blue combos out there like the Breitling SO Heritage 2

JW... it’s a factory bezel I picked up for $50 ... my watch guy installed it and replaced also the rached bit which was a bit worn on my watch. It’s a bit unique I think, would love to know if there is any other like it ...

Edit- can’t even wear it because no deployment clasp yet and I refuse to bend that new strap back as required to secure to wrist.
