Got the same model Hyperion series 2 on wrist today. Actually ordered their flat link bracelet so I can swap bracelets spending on the mood. Absolutely love this watch!

If I could change anything it would be the clasp. Their is only three micro adjusts and no half links.

Enjoy it brother!

Never listen to YouTube review. They usually have the watch for a couple days and that is never enough time to review a watch. They also just repeat everything that all the other reviewers says.

The bracelet is great and is a large part of what makes the Seamaster iconic. It’s extremely well made, comfortable and iconic.

I also have a oyster style bracelet from Forstner I will put on it from time to time but it feels so cheap compared to the Omega bracelet. Mine is on the original bracelet 99% of the time.

commented on Man….somewhat let down 😩😫 ·

I got the blue and was disappointed as well. Left my collection in less than a month. Whole watch felt so cheap and poorly made to me.

Can’t tell if you’re joking…just wear the watch or don’t buy it.

commented on Thoughts on Grand Seiko ·

I had one for about a month. Absolutely beautiful watch and brand. As I only wear watches on bracelets, the GS bracelet is an abomination resulting in an unusable bracelet for anyone who’s wrist expands and contracts throughout the day. Even with playing with half and full links it was either very tight or flopping on my wrist.

Sold it and don’t ever see myself getting one again unless they update their bracelets. I will admire from afar and am jealous for those who can actually have a good fit.

I’ve never regretted getting a watch but have also never regretted selling on either. It’s okay to sell watches and still appreciate them through photos, articles and here on Watch Crunch.

Wish you the best on your watch journey my friend 🥃

I got to the point of a fun watch box of 12, still way too many watches in my opinion, down to a core 5. Stressed me out to look into a box of watches that I only wanted to wear a few of them so only wore them all so I could justify having them.

I think people use the excuse of “having memories and life events attached to them.” When you ask them what memories, they can’t think of one but actually have a few that they can point actual important memories to.

If you have fewer watches, you create these memories with only a few watches and there is very little stress choosing what to wear each day.

For me it boils down to quality over quantity.
