Limited edition of 150 Omega Seamaster watches made exclusively for the Royal Navy Clearance Divers in 2008 as a private purchase for members of the regiment.
Spent a happy hour talking to the ex-RN diver this afternoon before a deal was struck and we shook hands.
Omega... it's the future!
:D

Nice one Mike - have they moved on from having tattoo's done?. :P
When you look long into an abyss, the abyss looks long into you.........
Another truly impressive piece Mr Wood
Very nice Mike, if you don't mind me asking
how much is a piece like this?
Cheers
Alex
A long way short of Rolex MilSub values :wink: but great potential for the future!!
I have not been aware of any "Regimental" Omegas coming up for sale on the open market, although I imagine a number have changed hands privately. I paid a "significant" premium above the retail price of the equivalent civilian model, and I certainly didn't begrudge the former RN diver profit on what he paid. The tales he shared with me were worth paying for alone!!
:D
Nice one Mike 8)
Looks like a BNIB example?
nice one mike
Is this model any different from the civilian model specs wise?
Very nice piece, not sure how much you paid for that but a couple of years ago i was fortunate to be present at an SBS boxing night and fund raising event in Poole, they had commissioned a limited edition of Seamasters, i think thats wha they were, not sure how many but they had the SBS frog symbol emblazened on them. The auction piece was watch number 007 and i remember our boss put up 20K and the bidding still went on. Not sure if any of those have come about yet.
Fantastic, I learn something new all the time :toothy7: :toothy7:
What's this one about?
dodgy maybe?
