Hi, New to the forums, but I have 2 Omegas: a 3570 and a great white GMT. I'm thinking of adding a titanium seamaster as I am a sucker for titanium watches (have a breitling aerospace and a helson sharkdiver in Ti). I think the one I'm after has the blue wave face. I don't see them come up for sale too often. does anyone know how many were made, and what the # designation is? Also, is the titanium bracelet more difficult to polish and maintain relative to steel? thanks! Rich
I see the odd pre 1997 titanium 300m Seamaster in blue, same as the 2531.80 stainless on Ebay sometimes. There are quite a few seamaster chronograph in titanium available. Iv'e never owned a Titanium watch, so I cant comment of the polishing. Regards Brandon
Thanks Brandon I'm steering away from chronos. They are plentiful but the chrono is useless to me, and adds a large premium to service cost. My breitling will polish beautifully with some 0000 steel wool followed by a bath...but I worry a bit about the brushed / polished links and refurbing an older SMP bracelet. Refurbing a standard steel seamaster bracelet was a project.
Found a NOS one, for what I think is a really good price. Amazing. Will post some shots when it shows up.
