I am looking for a watch for my partner who loves the look of blue watch hands. I like the look of the SARX033 but they are hard to find and a tad pricy. I wasn’t fussed about complications beyond date. I am trying to find a daily wear watch.

Any suggestions?

Might wanna try looking at a pre-owned Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra 2503.33.00

Lorier Safari Ivory. If you can find one.

Have a scout on eBay for one of these. Nice watches, I’ve had a couple of models from them over the years.

This. The Cocktail Time in white is basically the same watch, but with that beautiful sunburst dial, too. It’s also usually available for around $350.

Longines Heritage 1945. My absolute favorite blue-hands model.

Longines Master Collection dials with the blue hands are stunning in person.

I obsessed over this watch for months. Wish it were 38 mm.

What is their wrist size? Are you in the US? The SRPB77 is 40.5mm and is $338. I do feel the SARX033 is worth the extra money though. It’s a much better watch in my opinion. In 2923 I know there are groceries to pay for.

What else do you know about 2923? Am I still alive at age 941? What’s Mars like? And who wins the Super Bowl 2024 please?

Be aware 33mm here. I believe the “Damen” line tend to be colorful, cheaper and smaller

Oh, I didn't know that, thanks.
