Royal Navy Clearance Diver query

Hi

I am interested in getting an Omega Seamaster Royal Navy Clearance Diver 225780 currently listed with a reputable UK dealer for just under £7K. It looks in very good condition and the paperwork shows complete service by Omega in 2021. Is this a reasonable item to consider buying and is it likely to increase in value given that I believe only 150 were ever produced? The asking price seems about right although the age is not specified. I assume this could be obtained from the serial number? Any specific questions should be asking, not least how well is it running.

I have been collecting for a few years so know a little bit about automatic watches including Omega.

Many thanks

Jeremy

Thank you for your prompt response and apologies for duplicating my reply - although seems to have happened again when I clicked on the link you attached. I was more interested in general views about this model and value which seems to be around £6,500 to £7,500. They seem identical to the 2255.80 but with a dedicated caseback to Royal Navy Clearance Diver. This provenance presumably adds to the value and being a limited 150 edition which I see elsewhere as making the watch quite rare. Just wondered if this was a genuine military collaboration or as mentioned in the thread more of a marketing thing, like I suppose, the Tudor FXD/Marine Nationale collaboration.

Thanks

Watches aren't a good asset class for speculation, if you like it buy it, reasonable to not want to loose your shirt but don't expect 10% a year appreciation.
