The one through whom it all began for me

This Seamaster 2531.80.00 was the very first "beautiful" watch I ever acquired, over 19 years ago. It's always a renewed pleasure to wear it, although purists will certainly point out that it's equipped with a movement based on a modified ETA, the Omega Calibre 1120, and not an in-house movement. I'd like to reply that the very first Porsches were powered by reworked Volkswagen engines, and that Omega, like Porsche, is a major player in its respective field. This beauty is therefore over 19 years old, and it has only been serviced once, two years ago. It has been with me in all my activities—sports, DIY projects, motorcycling, sailing, and freshwater—without ever letting me down. Speaking of Bond, I'm not surprised 007 adopted it; this watch is a no-brainer, it knows how to make itself indispensable, even when you don't have a "license to kill." Sporty, elegant, comfortable to wear, perfectly legible, precise, and with a sufficient power reserve, it's pure bliss. It's a granddaddy of a brand that can boast a fine lineage, but for me, it remains a cut above the rest; it's a classic that's always relevant.
