    Wouldn’t want you to have to endure the agony of having to wear it any longer. I’ll pm you my address and you can send it to me.

    These are both great. Still kicking myself for not buying a “Hulk” several years ago when I had the chance ... at list.

    A Seamaster diver in the woods... an oxymoron for sure, but it doesn't seem to mind the circumstances as it merrily keeps humming.

    Very nice! I haven't seen this tuning fork model so far.

    Just been offered a 5270p by my dealer. Still wondering if I should go for it or no. Not an easy decision. What do you think?

    I think it’s a beautiful piece. It’s a one and done peace something you keep for generations. If you have the funds and it makes sense in your collection I say go for it

    Thanks Tobi. I just saw your collection of four and I‘m impressed. Congratulations. I would love to buy myself a couple more tuning forks but now that Omega has stopped servicing them I‘m a bit scared I‘ll end up with lovely paperweights.

    The f300Hz Seamaster diver came with 4 dial variants, the most common being the black one depicted below (not my watch; just a random image from the internet):

    The dial of my watch was an Italian-market-only version to commemorate Omega’s 125th anniversary. Understandably, it‘s not very common.

    Don't be afraid of the service. I never had trouble with mine. And an average good watchmaker should be able to fix them. They are no rocket science. My watch passion started with an f300 I stumbled upon.

    That is beautiful! Do they use their own movement or the Bulova movement? Are batteries easy to find?

    Is your top spring bar aligned and set in place? It looks like the bracelet will come off the watch.

    That’s kind of you. But I would miss the lovely whirring sound of its rotor. I’ve never had another watch like it.
