Horological Meandering

Nice post!

 

I'm new to Omega and bought my first Seamaster Aqua Terra a few days ago.



I'm starting to categorize dress watch versus sports watch less and less. What is the use of this distinction?

What for me is sure to remain is an immense versatility when it comes to the specimen you described.

I just think it's great when a watch has a WR of 100m and more (mine has 150m), 15,000 gauss, a decent PR.
Why not also in a so called “dress watch”?

If you look at the “holy trinity” where you might pay insane prices for WR 50m, no protection against magnetism, now at least a PR of 55 hours (formerly 40 hours) and so on (I just looked at the “new” 50th anniversary releases of one very famous brand in another thread), I think Omega delivers an excellent cost benefit ratio.

Just my 2c.

Best
Thomas

P.S.: Your Globemaster is really beautiful.

Two Watch Collection – Part 3– Masters

When you think of Omega, most of you would think of Speedmaster and Seamaster, the Omega's best seller sport watches, just like a Submariner and Datejust are Rolex's best known and best seller. But for 2-watch collection which should cover all situations,...  

Great Post!

The Seamaster (300m and PO) have eclipsed the Sub in a lot of ways. The Globemaster is the unsung and under rated (esp. In platinum) treasure…I would say competitor to the Rolex Presidential…I purchased the GSOTM to fill a sober business role but wonder i... 

Sub is a very robust and reliable watch. But in terms of design, i much prefer seamaster.

You should try the Globemaster. The case execution is way above its price category. And the pie pan dial is mesmerizing.

Nice post!

Fully agree with you, Thomas.

It is very pleasant to have a verstile watch that makes you dont have to carry 2 watches for different environments and situations. In this regard, few brands can do it better than Omega dan Rolex. Case in point, i will attend my brother's wedding in next... 

Only 2? Omega? Ok....

Six watches will be very ideal for me.

2 watches for daily beater 2 watches for formal (dressy ones) 2 watches foe sport and casual. So if one of those 2 watches is in for service, i still have the other one for back up.

A perfect two watch collection

For me it is perfect. Not in my collection, the globe annual calendar is a watch i want. The 007 white the same. Further, the constellation, deVille, and railmaster. Out of the three i am looking from time to time on the constellation. It is nice to disco... 

Interesting post - thank's for posting.

The Globemaster is IMO very underrated. Have looked at it a few times. Fully agree that it works best on a strap.

I think this is a nice and stylish two-watch collection!

And would feel comfortable with this for myself! However, currently I am quite fickle with watche I wear, even changing them 2-3 times a day (work, riding, home, and night time wear 😆).
