My newest addition...

Well guy's, most of you will probably think I have officially gone to the dark side. I have been a Rolex guy for a couple of years now, started out with a SD but it was to floppy and heavy on my wrist...I actually think it felt heavy due to the bracelet.. Then I bought a new 14060M ND Sub that has had my very satisfied for some time now but I still wanted something more. I have been looking into the Omega brand and really liked the Planet Ocean and the 2254.50 SMP, well I bought the Seamaster a couple of weeks ago. I have to be honest, {we are all watch lovers here and appreciate what they do for us so be kind in your responses}, but the Omega IMHO is a better watch than the sub. It feels so sturdy on my wrist, the bracelet is fantastic, makes my sub bracelet feel like a piece of tin. The lume is something that I have never experienced before, it's amazing, I guess after wearing Rolex for 2 years makes you think that watches are not supposed to glow. I am amazed at how easy it is to read the dial, and of course their is no cyclops to blur up the hands and date. I by no means am bashing Rolex, but these are my experiences with two classic watches, and at less than half the price, it is hands down a much better value and the quality is definitely on par with Rolex, better in many ways. Here are some pics of my latest, I truly hope that I have not offended any of my friends here, but I am just being honest with some fellow watch lovers.....






Just look at the case back...it's a piece of art
