: Correct.

: Ray,
: The model numbers and descriptions you have are
: correct. The model you are looking for is
: indeed the model 2055.80.00, which can still
: be found on Omega's website at the link
: below. It was discontinued in 2003 and
: replaced with model 2255.80.00, but for some
: reason it is still on Omega's website.

Thanks, John. That's what I thought. I'm surprised the 2055.80 still shows up. I have a hunch the seller of the mystery watch has a Franken watch with the original blue bezel having been replaced with a stainless one, or the Bond dial and hands replaced on a 2055.80. Thanks again.
