One of my all-time favorites. I could definitely wear it every day. :fro:
"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
- Theodore Roosevelt

I enjoyed mine when I had it. Although it was a bit gimmicky with the wave dial and helium valve. I also didn't like the case shape. I should have tried it on the rubber strap. That looks like a great combination.

Everybody gets called Angelo around here until their 10th post, at which point it changes to "the Todd" until post 26.

I loved mine for the first few months I had it but lost interest pretty quickly after that. Not sure why. :shrug:

take care of my light work Mike. :thumbsup:

hey Roar if I lost any weight I would be afraid I would loose some girth. :whistle:

oh my other complaint was the crown on the 2254 seemed small for the size of the watch. but I like the dial lay out and the lume was really good.

great watch!

I found the watch overhyped and should have gotten a 42mm PO before they got way pricey but that's how the cookie crumbles. I actually liked the 41mm Bond better, but the only Omega which had any staying power was the Railmaster. Need to try a Speedy.

Also not a fan of the wave dial or case shape (especially crown guards).

Still a watch I do lust after quite often though.

Worn it practically every day for the last three years. And while there are elements to the design that, when looked at in isolation, might appear a little awkward, as a total package I just find it... coherent. Kind of like a Rolex Sub it works. Really, really well on all levels, for me at least. I love it, and it'll be around long enough to become Lawrence's in a few years time. :love:

It's a great piece, and I think it deserves classic, if not legend, status. My only complaint is that :cussing: bezel.

I went back and forth between the 2254 and a 42mm PO, before eventually getting the PO. Still, the 2254 is an all around bad ass watch and the lume is king of the hill.
