Set sail with confidence and style to points unknown with this classic Omega Seamaster stainless steel men’s automatic chronometer watch, a highly accurate timepiece that’s as comfortable negotiating deals in the boardroom as it is navigating the breaking seas. It’s also a great diving watch, with water resistance to 300 meters (984 feet), screw-down helium release valve at 10 o’clock, and easy-to grasp rotating bezel–even with wet suit gloves. Definitively masculine in design, i [Read More...]

I purchased the 2255.80 directly from Amazon, not through a 3rd party. The watch is widely reviewed all over the net and is a masterpiece, so I’ll comment only on the specific characteristic of purchasing directly from Amazon, something I debated at length (again, not through a third party, I bought directly from Amazon):
In a nutshell, the watch comes exactly as it would from an authorized dealer (AD) but does not come with the warranty card you’d get from an AD which allows the watch to be serviced by Omega should anything go wrong. Instead, you’d ship back to Amazon. I figured the probability of something going wrong with the watch within the first two years was incredibly low anyway, so it made sense to purchase from Amazon, where the savings was an order of magnitude greater than most ADs. The piece itself was flawless with all correct serial numbers and red dot intact on the caseback.
In the future I would again purchase a fine time piece from Amazon because the savings is incredible and the watch itself comes exactly as it would from any other AD source, just with different warranty characteristics you’re unlikely to have to use anyway.

Stays to within +1 second a day, even fully wound or near the 44-hour power reserve
limit (although I’ve seen it unwind fully in 48 to 50 hours, amazing). There is plenty
on the web concerning Omega watches, the Seamaster series, Omega caliber 1120, and the ETA
2892-A2 movement (with 23 jewels as modified by Omega). Not bad for a Swatch Group
watch! Don’t let the Rolex’s fool you; they’re very good, but you get more bang for your buck
with Omega. The ‘grey market’ pricing through amazon is brilliant, and I have a local
jeweler who can service the watch as if it is under Omega warranty. The clasp does get
a bit scratched up, naturally, and the bezel is uniquely somewhat hard to turn,
but it works well when needed. This watch ROCKS!! and is a nice complement to a good quartz watch, like Seiko or Citizen.

Excellent value compared to other sellers
Bought this watch on AMAZON.com
Saved hundreds of dollars over what a retailer would have charged and has AMAZON stand behind a warranty.

Fantastic
My review is only of the watch, because Amazon have changed the supplier several times, so who knows how packaging and service may vary.
