My wife and little girl surprised me for Fathers day. Most of you know what a big fan I am of Omega. This one is just awesome, I love it

Mr. and Mrs. Rolex

And a family shot. The Omega blue chrono diver is missing, I loaned it to my brother about five months ago and haven't seen it since

idoitsavant · 23 June 2007, 10:56 AM

Congrats for the acquisition of a fine piece! I am thinking of getting that gem for myself!!!!

mfer · 23 June 2007, 11:04 AM

Dammit C.J.!!! Why did you have to go and get that. Just kidding. I love it!!!!! Congrats you lucky father.

I'm tearing myself up inside because I'm really liking the Omega Diver's. I went to an AD yesterday and today and looked at them. I really love the blue and the black automatic diver. Seems like such an incredible watch. So tempted to get it as the AD offered 30% off retail to me. I've always wanted a Rolex, but this purchase would side track my Rolex for a bit.

roadcarver · 23 June 2007, 11:11 AM

Congrats CJ. That is a beautiful Omega SMP.

When's the rubber strap coming in?

Mennald · 23 June 2007, 11:23 AM

Congrats, very nice watch

mike · 23 June 2007, 11:33 AM

Big congrats buddy!

What a great Father's day present! The Black SMP is a great watch. Love the sword hands and the lume is fantastic!

Now...have your wife call my wife!!

colemanitis · 23 June 2007, 11:36 AM

That's awesome, CJ! Congrats on the new Omega, it's a beauty!

Prince · 23 June 2007, 11:47 AM

Congratulations on the new Omega, Craig. Beautiful watch, as are the others in your photos. Your family is good to you, my friend!

Uncle-AJ · 23 June 2007, 12:10 PM

That's a great present Craig, congratulations.

JJ Irani · 23 June 2007, 01:00 PM

Congrats on a superb acquisition, Craig.

You lucky bastid....what a wonderful wife you have!!

dman · 23 June 2007, 02:14 PM

Congrats brother, you are blessed indeed my friend!! And the watches are a wonderful but very distant second reason why.

SLRdude · 23 June 2007, 02:14 PM

Congrats Craig! What a nice gesture from your family.

That's an Awesome watch.

I have had it's Titanium brother for almost 7 years now and it has been Bullet Proof!

PS. I called you the other day but I think I have the wrong number....

Lol-x · 23 June 2007, 08:57 PM

Wow, congrats Craig!!!!!!!!!!
This is my favorite Omega, what a gem.

Wear it in the best of health

Langnam · 23 June 2007, 11:40 PM

Nice watch, CJ! I see a Tutima in the "family" photo. How do you like it? Is it a rugged watch or more for dressy occasions?

Launch Mini · 24 June 2007, 02:02 AM

Great families you have there Craig ( both watch & human)
Nice "bling" on the Mrs' too.

oldman2005 · 24 June 2007, 05:00 AM

That's a nice SeaMaster, too bad that Omega discountinued it which is a very good watch for the money and a good brand name too. Wear it in good health.

C.J. · 24 June 2007, 06:23 AM

Thanks for all the kind words, guys

I've always been a huge fan of Omega and this one just solidifies my feelings for the brand. It looks fantastic, the clasp and bracelet are the most comfortable I've owned, the lume is sick it's like a friggen flashlight and you can't break them if you try. I'm really thrilled with this watch and the fact that my girls went out of their way to figure out which one I wanted most and surprised me with it just makes it a total keeper

Agreed, Craig. OMEGA make superb watches. I owned that very same model around five years ago....but mine was with the blue dial and steel bezel.

Very comfortable, dependable and solid watch. You will really enjoy it to the fullest!!

It hasn't changed, it's the same one I sent you the text message from not too long ago. But, I was destroying the 8525 at work so I bought a cheapie go phone to use. When I switched the sim card from one to the other, I deleted all of my phone numbers from A through M, yours included

I really think I'm allergic to technology

The Tutima is fantastic. I really can't think of one bad thing to say about it. I've worn it to work and the gym and it's pretty durable and it's accuracy is just off the charts. It's the only strap watch I own, so I usually use it for dressier occasions even though it's really not a dress watch.

mailman · 24 June 2007, 09:15 PM

That's a beautiful watch man. Lots of sentimental value there too. Enjoy it in good health my friend.

Welshwatchman · 25 June 2007, 06:13 AM

All I got was a pair of brown socks.
