The Dive Watch Connection

I was going to play guess the incoming but wasn't into that this time.

Have you ever bought a watch and once you had it, thought, oh shit...
just not into it....don't like it..... A couple weeks ago I bought a Speedmaster
Date, this one:



Got it home, sized it and wore it once or twice..put it back in the box
and thought...I think I made a mistake...Like the colors, but really didn't
like the quick date changing feature, the way the date was positioned, and most
importantly, didn't like the dial-- it wasn't easy to read. I began to think
about my options and immediately put it up for sale. I also put a call
into the AD where I bought it and after a couple of conversations, he said he
would give me full value of what I paid toward something else....I felt lucky...

Did some thinking and decided that whatever I bought should have a silver or white
dial and higher end movement....So decided to go with this....a watch I have always wanted
but kind of forgot about...



Speedmaster Broadarrow-1957
42MM case, 14.5MM thick
37 jewel COSC Cal 3313 ( based on the Piguet 1285)
Column wheel chrono
55 hrs power reserve
100M or 330' WR...


Anyways, pretty happy about getting a "do over"....will have some real pics
middle of next week...

Just thought I would tell you guys about it...

Great use of the do over. I love the Broadarrow.

Congrats.

The Broadarrow looks great. The white dial and the blued hands are a stunning combination.
It's non-Moonwatch Speedmaster day here at DWC!

Your a lucky man!

And made a very good choice me thinks! Those broad arrows are SWEEET!!!

I really liked the look of the Speedy date
The new one doesen`t look so bad either though

Thanks everyone...

Hard to go wrong with any of the Speedmasters

Will post up pics as soon as it lands....

Very cool, Mike. You can never really go wrong with an Omega. I look forward to seeing actual dial pics!

Great do-over!! Love the Broadarrow and can't wait to see some pics.

DWC is going Speedmaster crazy and I love it!

Sounds like you have a good AD to deal with.
