lazarini Posted May 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Open it !!!! Come on Laz, stop being so cruel and tell us already.... Anything for u my friend This is my old time favorite that i neglected a bit but now i thought it was time to put things in place... I was lusting for this piece cca 10 years ago but at that time cud not afford one for obvious reasons i even managed to persuade my father to go take a look at one in a local AD but the price was outside his budget he would purchase me a watch for... in the end i got a Certina ODC I Now years and years later i said to myself its time for this to come in so i got this SMP ref 2220.80.00 Bond this is the one with the newer caliber 2500 hart that sports the Co-Axial escapement guts and the updated dial that has the marker surroundings and the Seamster text in RED In a way we cod call it "Single Red Bond" heheh... it also has the new BIG HORSE back ... Watch is in top condition and came with all accessories i must say its even nicer live im wearing this now as i type this with a nice feeling of some kind of closure and accomplishment ... Here are some quick and dirty shoots quick wristie: Cheers Laz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazarini Posted May 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Thank you gents! I handled a few gens in my time but this ranks very high on my list specially considering the prices these go for and what u get for your money! The watch wears super comfortable and due to the fact of curved lugs... its also quite on the thin side for a "diver" this helps it slip below the shirt seamlessly. There are minor things that they cud execute better then again not show stoppers... I will prepare a pictorial with better pics and more in depth impressions later so stay tuned... regards Laz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazarini Posted May 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 what a beauty!!! congratz lazarini! This SM always wears so smoothly. I agree it wears so nice first impressions i would say this is comfortable as the EXP II i have... the pocket cam did not do justice to this piece as said u need to see it live to appreciate how nice it actually is! Real nice Laz...one of my all time fav's! Thank you, i think a lot of people loved this watch at least at one point in their watch collection history. Very nice Cheers m8! A classic for sure. Good stuff. Congrats and wear it well. Will do thanks! Well, that is surely not my favorite watch but it fits your personality very well for sure. I'm so happy you have it on your wrist Laz. One should always buy their dream watch or their dream watchessssss! Wear it well and bring it to Brussels biggrin.gif Ditto! As said this watch goes beyond the watch itself for me... its more of a personal win for me finally seeing this on my wrist... I was home this weekend and told the news to my dad (he is 75) an believe it of not he got excited more then me... This purchase was a quick draw for me since i managed to source this at more then a decent price, thx for the HELP on this one Stephane... i cud not pull it of in such short time without ure help! Sure ill bring it as mentioned it does look better in real life regards LAZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
