Omega Seamaster or Rolex Submariner

[ss3walkman]

So today while out seeing Spider-Man (great reboot BTW) I tried on these bad boys











And I must say that my hearts a little broken.

As much as I wanted a DateJust it's really not the watch for me. It has plenty of bling but it just didn't feel right.

I listened to your suggestions and tried on the Submariner and the Sea Dweller. At first I didn't care about any other Rolex besides the DJ but now I want a Sub or SD REAL BAD!! Preferablly the Dweller because it is larger but I'd be happy with either.

BUT..

That Planet Ocean.. That watch is a PROBLEM! I loved it! I went in having my mind already made up about going Rolex but after trying on the Planet Ocean I'm stuck.

I loved the weight of the PO. The Rolex feel extremely light on me wrist but the PO felt like it was there. Not heavy but it's almost feel like my wrist is naked when wearing the Rolex, well at least the Sub. But with that said the feel of the Rolex is something I could get used to, it's just a different feeling than what I'm used to. I guess the PO felt more familiar to my wrist. But man am I in a conundrum.

I have the money to get a slightly used or even new PO right now but probably not for a used SUB or SD. All three are great watches but I would hat the feeling of regret of buying the PO just because I can definitely afford one and later on kick myself in the but for not waiting and getting one of the Rolex. I may not regret it but I don't know if I'm ready to make that gamble.

If anyone has both your thoughts on this would be useful.

Have any of you went from a Rolex to a PO or PO to Rolex?

How was it? What was your reasoning?

For those who tried on both what made you buy or fall for the watch you own or want to own?
