The Bezel #'s on my Seamaster ?
This may be a scuba diving Q more than a watch specific one but why is 20 the first # on the bezel and not 10?

What a watch!!!
Hi all,Being lurking on this site for some time researching all things Rolex and Omega and thought that I should at least take the time to say hello. I took the plunge last year and in deciding between the iconic no-date sub and the equally iconic speedy pro, I decided on the latter. That was a year ago and after purchasing a couple of additional straps, mesh band, and a few nato's I must confess I couldnt be happier. What a multi faceted watch! It can lend itself to any situation. I've worn it pretty much every day, from office work, ultra running, motorbiking in India, its never missed a beat. A fantistic timepiece.... and yet I still want a no-date sub. This is a great forum and I'm glad I said hello

I love this Omega....

The gradient dial is sporty and the diamonds on the dial are quite subtle (you are right KARL).2. 5230G: the case is very nice in fact (a lot has been said about the stamped case) and the steps in the lugs look great! The watch is a bit big for me and the automatic movement in this case is not to my liking. The vintage vibe is strong and I am sure it will be a popular reference.3. 5168: Too BIG! For me at least. I think it would have been better in a 40mm case. But I think Patek i
