Short bracelet does not fit a male wrist.
The watch did not come with additional links so the bracelet can only fit a teenager. I had requested the missing links for the bracelet bit have been ignored by Josh and Joe at VIP time.

Hi. I have a circa 1970's Omega Speed Master and still ticking. However the water resistance is fading even though official Omega regular service. I also had an original Omega Sea Master circa 1980's and all was perfect until theft. So, the watch in review: 1). Seems it is a "grey market" seller. 2). Concerned about being the "real deal". 3). Took it to my authorized Omega service folks and they indicated the product was the "real deal", but not the most recent model. 4). However, due to the "grey market" seller, the real "Omega" warranty is not in place but an alternate via Amazon. 5). No worries, these Omega watches are built and need no repairs except regular servicing from and "Omega certified" watch-smith.
All in all, the purchase price was pretty good compared to the "snooty" Omega exclusive boutique selling points now in place. My Omega watch-smith confirmed the product was the Omega real deal. Amazon customer service folks were helpful also on assuring Amazon's backing of a pretty expensive purchase. Down side-real checking of authenticity pretty much voided the 2nd party warranty. But again, between wife and I, several Omega's over time have given knowledge to Omega longevity and quality. So go for it, the Amazon sub-seller seemed to prove good on authentic Omega watch in my case.

Beautiful watch. As soon as it was delivered to me, I took it to my usual watch service shop. I was told the watch was in perfect working order, I was very pleased with the entire transaction.

I have this Seamaster Pro Chronograph and it's one of my favorites. I owned the previous version of Seamaster Pro Chronograph in black, and the white gold sub-dial rings and markers really set off that dial; but in general the older dial with the wave pattern was not as legible as the new glossy dial, which combined with the glossy ceramic bezel is much more attractive and refined looking to me.
The 42mm size is just right, as 40-42mm watches look best on my 7.3" wrist. And this is one of my best looking watches, if not for the Bond style bracelet. I far prefer the older 1610/930 "speedy" style Seamaster Pro bracelet from the older model 2254. Unfortunately I tried that bracelet and the end links do not mate with the case head properly because the watch is so thick (although it works with my non-chronograph version of this watch). The clasp works nicely, and it does include a diving extension. It comes with removable full links and half links, to get the size right, but no micro-adjustment like some newer Omega and Rolex watches.
Speaking of thick watches, you may have some trouble getting it to slip underneath a long sleeve dress shirt. It's not really any thicker than an Omega Planet Ocean with the 8500 movement, but the non-chronograph version of the Seamaster Pro is a bit thinner. The scalloped bezel on this watch is easier to slip under a shirt sleeve than the coin edged bezel of the Planet Ocean, so that helps make up for the thickness.
The markers and hands have decent lume, that while not nearly as bright as my Planet Ocean, they still glow throughout the night with brief exposure to bright sunlight or a bright flashlight. I'd still prefer my watches to glow in dim light like they're electrified, such as when going from bright sunlight into the shadows or indoors, like the older 2254 models or Planet Oceans.
What is really nice is that the sub-dial hands now have lume as well, so you can now use the stopwatch and see the continuous seconds hand and minute/hour timer hands in the dark. While the hour markers on the dial and the hour hand glow blue, the minute hand and bezel dot are both green in the dark, to make them easier to separate when taking a quick glance in the dark.
The new 3330 movement is quite accurate for an automatic wind mechanical watch, and I only have to set the minute hand back about 1 minute about once a month. That's about +2 sec a day and well within COSC specs. The quick date set is placed within the center of the helium escape valve, and it's a recessed pusher that you use the included pointy tool to depress and make the date jump forward (similar to watches with the Valjoux 7750 movement). I have not tested the power reserve to zero yet, but it have taken it off for almost 2 days without sticking it on the watch winder, and it was still running when I put it back on. I don't recall if the reserve is 50 hours or 60 hours (my Hamilton is 60).
Speaking of Helium Escape Valves (HeV), this watch uses a manual valve unlike the automatic valve on a Rolex Dea Sea Sea Dweller. The HeV is a small crown that can be rotated open to allow high pressure helium out of the watch, after being used inside of a high pressure diving bell. Professional divers may spend time in a pressurized diving bell, using a helium/oxygen breathing atmosphere. The helium molecules are so small that they can squeeze past the rubber gaskets and equalize the pressure inside the watch.
But when the diving bell is raised back to the surface and the atmospheric pressure drops, then the pressure inside the watch can be so great that it causes the watch to pop apart, sometimes dramatically. So you open the valve as the bell is taken to the surface and the helium can escape, until the inside of the watch is at normal atmospheric pressure at the surface.
Note - the 300M water resistance will be compromised if the valve is not screwed down or closed when in the water, and the watch will be only 50M resistant with it open. It should only be opened (unscrewed) while in a breathable environment, such as inside the diving bell. The winding/set crown is also screw down like the HeV to improve WR, and while the chronograph buttons look like they can be screwed down and locked in place they don't. However, these pushers can be operated at full diving depth, unlike most other dive chronographs!
Omega has enough faith in these that they upgraded the standard warranty from 2-3 years to a full 4 years, while recommended service intervals is every 5 years. A service by Omega for a non-chronograph watch currently runs $525 and includes 2 years of warranty after the service, but for this watch they will tack on another $200 for a routine service.
Omega service includes making the case and bracelet look like new again, with the proper polished or brushed finish where appropriate. The benefit of the older version of this watch was that the 1164 movement was easily serviced by independent watchmakers for a lot less money, being Omega's COSC version of the Valjoux 7750 movement, and it's not clear yet how the modified movement with coaxial escapement will fare with these guys.

This Seamaster with chronograph is the perfect watch. As usual, mine was purchased when on vacation. All of my great watches were purchased on vacation! It works as sporty, dressy, or whatever you want.The build is solid, as expected from a high end Swiss watch. It is about one second fast a day, though I'm still breaking it in and the accuracy should settle down after a while. It might not though, due to the superior Si14 springwheel. My wrists are large and I still needed to remove two links to keep this from slinging around slacker style. I couldn't be happier with this purchase!

The best watch I have ever owned. Heavy but NOT bulky. Always noticed when I wear it. Beautiful craftsmanship and it Shows. Rides nice on the wrist, I have this same watch in the 44mm version, so easy to read. and night viewing is very clear with well lit markings. If your only ever going to buy one high end watch I would tell the Omega seamaster or speedmaster should be it.
