Chairman7w 0 Posted June 4, 2013 I’m not a true watch conase… konasu… Co… expert, by any stretch of the imagination, so I can’t tell you how accurate this time piece is, or if the weight is accurate to the gram compared to the Gen, but I do know that it was a great price and I really dig it! I wanted a watch to break up the blacks and silvers in my small watch box, and heard about the low-price special they had to offer at Selix. So I got this from them, it’s their $35 special. Since I’m not interested in wearing a bracelet that says, “SeaMastel”, and since it was a total piece of crap anyway (crappy stamped metal clasp), I was more than happy to order a separate strap from Panatime. Then it was all about the waiting game. Michelle helped me from the start, she was extremely efficient and I received the watch approximately one week after it shipped (I’m in Sacramento, California). It was packed to resist a nuclear blast, and came in unblemished. I was able to remove the old bracelet (straight into the bin!) and get the new strap involved without trouble. Overall, I just LOVE the look of this, it may be one of my favorites in my meager collection (7 watches now and still growing!). And now, the pics: Overall, I'm extremely happy with it. Selix (and Michelle in particular) were a joy to work with and I'll buy again from them without hesitation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sbryantgb 0 Posted June 5, 2013 Thanks for posting the pics, I threw one of these into my purchase the other day, just because the price was so low. I figured it would work as a beater for the girlriend. But I'm not so sure she will get it now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dave0280 0 Posted June 5, 2013 $35! Thats insane - cracking buy at that money - can't argue at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrimReaper 0 Posted June 9, 2013 (edited) I also bought this watch 10 days ago, and 2 more $35 ones with it. Should be here this week. Primary reason was I really wanted to see the feel of a 45mm watch. But if the weight is gen like, more than 200g is just too much for my 6.5" wrist. Who knows, maybe if I put it on a leather strap, I might even wear it. And I am also very interested in the quality of a $35 watch. Especially the bracelet, where even $300 ones have problems. Also the movement interests me, I don't think it should have a Tongji, and also don't think it has a Seagull. And another thing, how the case, bezel and dial compares to a more expensive $150-300 rep, but I can't compare that myself, because I don't have one yet. But certainly it looks very good on these pictures. Edited June 9, 2013 by GrimReaper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eilandes 0 Posted June 9, 2013 Just approved qc pics for the same watch from Silix. Got the same kind of strap from another omega which I fitted with a SS one. Will now use it this watch. Just can't wait for this one to arrive. At the $35 price it really can't be a disappointment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
