Matt's got it....really sorry about the cell phone pics in an office with terrible flouresent lighting, not that I'm Silje or anything, but will have better shots later. 2254 with the full kit, inner & outer boxes, book, 3 cards. the warranty card is dated 2008 and she is in mighty fine shape.
Wears just a tad smaller than my U1, but then again, this is a little more elegant - like a light saber vs a blaster. the force is strong with this one! again more pics and revew later. thanks for the patience, now back to work!

My Doxa was sacrificed to build up the funds for "project kool-aide" and the 2254 came up first. speedy pro is in the crosshairs, just a bit down range right now :koolaid:

Very nice Mike. Was aiming for one of these before I broke down and sold my Searambler for the PO. A classic that I wish Omega still made. That paired up with a Speedy Pro is a winning combo if I've ever seen one.

Thanks, Roar!

I just noticed in a Q&D's that the bezel is not aligned - I was in a hurry to snap a few I didn't check the bezel, the time or the date. Went back to be sure the pip lined up with the 12 marker and she lines up perfectly.

The bracelet needs a little adjusting which will be done later when I get in front of the pin pusher machine thing. I also ordred a couple of Bond 3-ring zulus (not feeling the nato's just yet) and will show them off when they show up.

hey Matt - thanks.....yeah saw your post earlier re: Doxa/P.O. and your P.O. is stunning! I bumped the 2254 up the list due to limited availability compared to the speedy and got lucky with the timing on this one.

Thanks guys, I appreciate it - I'll do more of a write up later.

Steve - I believe the original owner got it NOS and barely wore it at all and then flipped it.....I mean even the clasp is "almost" free of any marks...or that may just be Halo effect :love:
