Btw in case you're wondering. I'm selling the watch because I fancy a change, and want another NASA themed watch. I'll either be replacing this with an Omega X-33 or with another Omega Speedmaster Professional 'Moon Watch'.

Nice, very similar to my Chrono Avenger

Out of interest, how much was it to get the titanium polished?

Hi Iwan

Personally I adore my Omega Speedmaster Professional and wouldn’t buy anything else.
For anyone that doesn’t know about the history of this watch, have a look here http://clubspeedmaster.com/space/tests.htm and http://www.accutronservice.com/omega_speedmaster.htm

Good luck with the sale of your Breitling.

Hi sti-04, yeah have a think and let me know if you're interested.

I had a Speedmaster Professional 'Moon Watch' before the Breitling, I do sometimes wish I'd never sold it but I don't regret buying the Breitling. I just really fancy the X-33 as its current issue on shuttle/ISS flights, and I wanted to grab one before they all get sold as they've been discontinued by Omega apparently.

I'd like a change, but every time I look at the Seawolf I think I wouldn't exactly be gutted if it didn't sell.

Actually they did it for me for free when I sent it to be regulated, but it was just a light polish. If you have a watch with really deep scratches/gouges they can totally refurbish the outside for approx £170 - basically by skimming a layer of metal off all over.

Have a look on TZ-UK somebody may want to trade or you may have more joy selling it as it is a watch forum.

You can find TZ-UK here:- http://www.tz-uk.com/forum/index.php

Good luck

Thanks. I'll give this a few more days (maybe till the end of the week) then if it's not sold I'll most likely abandon the sale and start wearing it again. It's too nice to stay sitting in its box!
