I have many watches from both brands and appreciate them for what they are. Hard to argue one is better than the other...

The one thing I can say that favors Omega at the moment is availability compared to Rolex who seem to be vacuumed up, regardless of the model (except for 2 tone and certain ladies models).

I do agree that Omega has been more daring and taking risks with technology, materials, etc...
Rolex has kept to what they know even thought the YM2 and SkyD have been nice additions.

I think there is room for both in a collection and cannot say which I would prefer as both are great in my eyes with a slight nod to Omega for taking more risks.

Most here know I am a huge Speedmaster fan but saying that, I also have many different iterations of the Daytona, including vintage models.

In the end, we all have our own personal preferences but that is what makes this passion great. If everyone liked the same types of watches, it would get a bit boring after a while. Sharing our passion with others, either due to different types of watches, brands, etc...adds to the enjoyment for me.

I read your post regarding the horrific service you received from the Rolex AD. It was sad to hear that you were treated that way but I want to also remain open minded and hope that it was more about the people working at that particular AD than the brand itself. I don't want to defend Rolex but I also want to be objective as well.

Omega indeed has a more diversified selection but sometimes that could hurt them as well.

Regardless, Omega makes an amazing product and stands shoulder to shoulder with any Rolex 😉👍
