By-Tor Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 Screw all new "Special Editions". This is the one and only Omega Bond watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cougar1 Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 It's very nice, the original bond omega but it's the 2nd best smp! Tried many smps and they are great but the only one I really did 'bond' with (pardon the pun) is the 2254: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted November 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 Agreed. That black one is really nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cougar1 Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 Those two classic smps, the 2254.50 and the 2531.80 that you have BT are the nicest versions imo. The more recent raised marker smps and also the newer ceramic are all a litttle too glossy and shiny for some reason, they are good looking watches but I also feel they lost something along the way. It's subtle but the originals with matte dials and painted markers had a much more sporty casual everyday look. The newer dials lost the nice matte waves and went more for shiny dials (as in the black bond) which makes them a bit more bling and showy and less iconic imo.

r11co Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) Both are beautiful and have graced my collection. Still have the blue one. And I agree with the OP. Edited November 9, 2012 by r11co Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
