Thanks for the welocme!
Try to keep this short as possible..lol
Have always wanted a Speedmaster Moonwatch since I was about 20.. Now 37... I wore a Breitling SuperOcean Chrono for about 13 years straight and when it was time to get a new watch i settled on the Sapphire Sandwhich and was extremely happy with the look and feel of the watch. BUT because I was so use to wearing an automatic I had trouble remembering to wind the watch everyday I wore it... so after about 3 months i traded it in with my Breitling for a Rolex DJ II.... But since have traded that Rolex...
Fast Forward to this year and seeing so much Speedmaster love on this site I started to do my research and decided I wanted the Hesalite version, so went to my new Omega AD and purchased it!! Now I realize I wasn't winding the sapphire version enough and have grown to enjoy the time winding it every morning... when i bought it i did not put another watch on my wrist for 45 days, the hesalite dome and the dial are mesmerizing to me!!!!
As for the Speedmaster 57' it was the automatic version with the patina not the anniversary edition and at first I loved the patina but after awhile I wanted the black on white look of the current speedmasters so decided to trade that in....
Have learned alot from these transactions and now do weeks of research and wondering before I pull the trigger!!!
Sorry for the long speech.....

Your collection is really nice. I must say that i was really thinking about the PO recently, i maybe want to add the Bluegold version - the brown 39,7mm with the ceramic case and plastic strap is fantastic too. Can you please tell me what this watch makes...
PO love!!

Reuven thanks for the welcome! The PO's double broad arrow hands are for some reason my favorite hands on any watch...the matte black dial that takes on several colors depending on the lighting, the rubber strap and steel bracelet are very comfortable! I ...

Good to meet another Omega and watch collector. I considered a PO, but the love for a 300 diver was stronger, so i bought a nice 300 diver. I like the big blue, and the orange grey. Maybe i buy a globemaster, we’ll see.

I love the Seamaster line in general! One day i hope to have 300M and a 300 diver as part of the collection... just dont know if i want to go new age or older as i have not started getting into used watches yet (only buy new)... Also love the 300 Titanium...
Me too

me too, only buy new. Why? my story. I have not investigate vintage watches, and what i can aspect. The patina, value, and more. I think it can grow for me. For most stuf, i buy very little secondhand. My view is mostly of the time, a look into the future...
Buying New!
By: D-TIME1 : March 26th, 2020-10:03
For some reason I like to create the story behind the watch... i buy watches to wear them so i know i am going to beat them up! I also like the comfort of in store buying from an AD! Have almost pulled the trigger on a couple used watches but always secon...
GO Blue looks amazing!
By: D-TIME1 : March 26th, 2020-07:02
GO has really got my attention with their whole line of watches but the PanoMatic is just stunning in my opinion... i have a soft spot for moonphases and perpetual type watches (just out of my price range usually)... GO is a great value and something I ca...
