Is there a difference between being able to own a watch and being able to buy a watch? Just my opinion but I feel like some people are able to come up with the cash to buy a watch but are not able to truly own and afford it.. Hoping for a mature discussion related to watches. Would love to hear other perspectives!

It's their money and their watch, who the f**k cares? :s22:

I think this thread is about appreciating the beauty of watches and horology. More watches, less bs. :)

high 5 there bro lumin87! :s12:

that's cos the omega 2254.40 seamaster professional chronometer has all the key, essential elements and design language that makes it such a perfect, complete watch that can be worn from a business suit to a birthday suit - it's that versatile and also interesting when examined up close with its mesmerising wave dial and wave theme engraved on its caseback. that it has a small unadorned date window displaying a date wheel in a colour shade that matches the dial and also providing a lume pip beside the date window at 3 o'clock shows that its designers have deliberately, discreetly and lovingly preserved dial symmetry! and let's not forget the BIG TRIANGLE at 12 o'clock that first drew my attention to this lovely watch! :love:

its strong, tool aura as exuded with its no nonsense generously lumed hour markers, bold sword hands, and its minute & second hands reaching right to the outer edges of the minute chapter ring is harmoniously balanced with its surprising thinness at 11.5mm for a 300m rated diver with a sensuously domed undersided AR coated sapphire crystal that that flows smoothly with an unbroken trajectory from its sloping, scalloped-edged bezel when viewed from the side of the watch. in addition, its all-round sensuous satin brushed finish with discreet polished surfaces on its short lyre lugs and crown guards that flows nicely around its crown altogether makes this dress diver both devilishly sexy in its 300m ruggedness and also daringly dignified in its chronometer grade finesse when worn on formal occasions, slipping under your sleeves effortlessly and unobtrusively. there're no sharp, harsh, abrupt edges or bloated case dimensions jarring its exquisitely balanced geometry on this handsome watch at all. the entire watch and its beautiful solid bracelet with solid end links and milled 316 s/steel clasp and diving extension that closes with insanely tight tolerance flows effortlessly without being mismatched and drapes beautifully and oh-so-comfortably on your wrist! this watch eschews pretentions and the deliberately inflated pricing that gouges watch lovers and aspirational owners. it is equipped with the highest quality chronometer-grade ETA 2892-A2 movement that omega went on to enhance as its calibre 1120, making it easily and affordably serviced. this is the perfect all-round watch that all watch lovers look for and that's why it has become a modern cult classic! :lick: :love:

the tragedy is why omega cease production of such a sublime, beautiful design. :s22:

it will never be confused with an homage and stands alone with its unique identity that pays tribute to its predecessor, the omega seamaster 300, a watch ordered and issued by the uk ministry of defense to its combat forces. :D

so when did you first got your 2254.50? :)
