Let's look at 10 years, shall we? *PIC*

Obviously, this an Omega Seamaster Professional. It was purchased from an authorized dealer here in Vancouver, in 1995 at a cost of $2,450 Canadian dollars. It now retails for $2,600 Canadian. A lot of money THEN, and a lot of money NOW! )

6 years of daily wear doing almost everything, and at least once a week since then, has resulted in the following:

1. The lume is almost non-existant now.

2. The bezel is scratched. Unfortunately, you can't get just the insert. You have to buy the whole bezel.

3. The second hand pointer has faded and the original color is barely legible.

4. The good news is, it still keeps COSC time!

We see so many pictures of beautiful watches in their new condition, I just wanted to show you what one looks like, if you actually WEAR one! :)
