SOLD: Omega Aqua Terra 8500 "Skyfall" 231.10.39.21.03.001

This is going to hurt....

For sale is a 38.5mm Omega Aqua Terra 8500 with the beautiful "Skyfall" inky blue dial.

I bought this watch from a seller on WUS and imported it back in May:

I've only worn it a handfull of times, so as described by the original seller, its still in fantastic shape. While i've owned it, I removed the Bracelet and wore it with an Omega Crocodile Strap and Deployant (I'll be keeping those for the SMP). I will sell it on the original Bracelet. Otherwise, it comes with the complete kit, box, cards etc.

I love this watch and could not get it out of my mind when Omega released it, but sadly at 38.5mm its ever so slightly too small for my nearly 8" wrist. I see they are making a 41mm version of this now, but I just cannot make that $$$ leap again. I've since bought an Electric Blue SMP to quench my need for a blue dial and 40mm+ cased Omega.

Here is a recent snap (on the strap/deployant which will not sell with the watch), but I will add a ton more after work:


I'm looking for $3800 CAD. (I paid $3760 USD plus Paypal Fees, Shipping, etc). Please PM me if you have any questions.

Wow, that's a steal at that price. I won't say what I paid for mine new just in May!
Would you consider selling that strap separately?

Thanks. Not a lot of these floating around in Canada.

I actually have three straps for the Omega Deployant: Omega Burgundy and Dark Brown Crocs and the Hirsch Leather one in the Photo. Once I figure out what works well with the 2255.80 (thinking the Burgundy) I'll likely sell the Dark Brown one. I'm definitely holding on the the Deployant. The last time I sold one, I immediately regretted it.

Some more photos today. I'm a watch enthusiast and not a photographer, but I should really consider a light box and a decent camera for the number of watches I buy and then sell. I took some while I changed it back to the bracelet. I prefer a strap in the summer, so I haven't actually left the house with the bracelet.

Next to my Sinn 857 UTC (43mm Case)

As you can see, the watch is nearly flawless.

I'll get some of the Box and Cards etc shortly.

PM me. I'm open to offers, but this is already very competitively priced.

Some comparison pics with my Full-size Electric Blue SMP. Love the SMP, but the Skyfall has far more depth to its dial:

Was hoping to sell this in Canada. Offers before I post it on the big boards?

Guys, this is an incredible watch and I don't just say that because I own one. Our friends on the Omega forums on other websites drool over this watch - this is a huge discount off the retail price. This watch is compatible with the office or jeans. Since owning it, I have sold all of my other Swiss watches because I wear it daily.

Good lucky Armybuck - I don't expect you'll have this for much longer.

+1 on the above, beautiful watch and a nice deal. Good luck with the sale! I'd be interested but I've got mine already!

 

[armybuck041]

Thanks for the comments.

Gents, i'm willing to move on the price a bit if payment is by EMO/EMT vice Paypal, and its a Canadian Deal.

Offers?

In addition to the Bracelet, I will also include a genuine Omega burgundy croc (very nice with the blue face) and a "Watch Obsessions" brown leather straps. Both are designed for use with a 18mm Omega Deployant (not included).

I really don't want to go to the hastle of shipping out of Canada again, so if your thinking about this watch PM me and let's sees what we can do. It has been put away for the past few weeks in fear that if I wear it, I'll want to keep it. Since buying the SMP and Sinn, I can't afford to have all three. Way too much $$$ tied up in watches.
