In Response To: Omega Seamaster 2254.50 ()

: I'm looking for the Omega Seamaster black/black
: with the Speedmaster bracelet (not the new
: bond style bracelet - model 2054.50).

With the Speedmaster style bracelet, the model number will NOT have a zero as the second digit. The zero specifies the Bond bracelet. What you are looking for will likely be listed as a 2254.50.

The only place I've heard of USA buyers getting the watch on the Speedmaster style bracelet is to purchase through the non-authorized dealer Ashford.com. Ashford, being a gray market dealer, gets their watches through distributors in other countries and brings them in to the USA. So they have no trouble getting the 'not available in the USA' versions.

Authorized dealers were SUPPOSED to be able to get them, but that has never seemed to have happened.
