OK Dennis, mark me off the "owes you pictures" list 😉

These are not the best pics but I did manage to snap a few today.

The famous White Omega Box. It got a little dirty on it's trip back home in the luggage.

This is where they put the receipt when you buy at the Omega Boutique 💰 <--- less of this now! LOL

Ahh there is the other Famous Omega Red box 😀

Manual and Warranty card holder. Bummed they quit giving the COSC card...

Nice touch Omega!

OK on to the goodies... The SMPc in black

Yes I was wearing it just before the pics so it needed to be wiped off. I already have desk diver marks on the clasp.. but that's gonna happen
My only complaint is no micro adjustment holes in the clasp. I removed 1.5 links and it fits great though.

I tried to get a close up of the dial, but I didn't have the right lighting to make the picture look good.. flash kept going off...

I've been enjoying it since it hit my wrist!

I will get some better pics with my lightbox later on.

Cheers!

You can get a micro-clasp retrofitted for about $125...swaps out in less than 5 minutes. The Black SMPc is my personal favorite.

Am I the only one that thinks SMPc or SMPC means a Seamaster Professional Chronograph? SMP is a Seamaster Pro (sans chronograph function). Or have I lost it completely?

For some of us the "c" means ceramic bezel.

It's blue cousin is my third Omega. Bought 25 years after my second.
When you first posted a picture of yours I started thinking about putting the bracelet back on mine...and now it will probably wind up with my son when he graduates the University of Washington in August. I put the micro-clasp on it so it fits me perfectly now...might have to swipe it off and put the standard clasp back on before I give it to him.😀

A bit of necro-posting, but I like the strap and have to ask - what strap is that ^^^ ?

My apologies if it was already posted, but did we get an answer to this question?
