Merry Christams to me. :) Omega Seamaster Professional. I can't wait to get my rep to see how close it is. I'll let the pics speak for themselves.

I've tried to take some detailed pics, so if anyone with a good Sea Pro rep can point out the major flaws, please do so. And please feel free to add your own rep pics to see how close they are, with no fear of thread hijacking.

Enjoy!

Not too much glare, but no tint to the AR (if any). Double sided AR coating, I'm guessing?

The only "rep-like" flaws I can find are the fact that the bezel-inserts 3 o'clock hour marker doesn't line up exactly and the datewheel appears to sit a little on the highside in the window.

I swore after my Submariner, I'd never buy anther gen, but this one was hard not to fall in love with. I wonder how long I'll keep this one...

One last question, if you look at the dial print on this, it's all white. Tonight I went to a different AD, and they had A Sea Pro similar to this, but the Omega symbol was a piece of steel glued to the dial, not painted like it is here, and the word "Seamaster" was in red ink & not white. The only other major difference was the case-back had a much more prominent & larger etching, like the PO. Has anyone seen this model before, or is this the latest generation of gen?

the one with the applied symbol and red lettering is the new version.

I actually prefer this "old" version. The current design changes just makes the dial busier and less pure tool watch.

Changes on a watch like the Seamaster should improve function, but I assume Omega try to move upmarket and look more expensive...

By the way, I added a link to this post in my Seamaster Pro Chrono Review. :)
