If you buy Omega, you will lose a lot when you sell. Rolex retains value and sometimes increase with time.

Get the Snoopy if you have no intention of selling.

My two cents worth...

Always thought the Snoopy was a bit pricey for what it was.

Having a Rolex is well worth it but diversifying is th beauty of the collection.

I see you’ve decided to keep with the waiting list for the Rolexes, and I’m glad you identified the best path for you.

I used to be Rolex/Tudor only, but I’ve diversified somewhat - I generally like tool watches that can get knocked about, and I’ve branched out into Seiko, Omega, Panerai, and also, into a few pieces from Grand Seiko over the last few years. I’m glad I’ve done so for my own edification and to each their own.

My move away from Rolex has more to do with the fact I’ve got my bases covered in terms of my interests (Sea-Dwellers, green sub, explorer, Daytona, GMT, DD) than it does with lack of availability...but the lack of availability isn’t alluring to me at all.

Glad you made a decision, OP. IMO, I think you chose a good course, for what it matters.

I made a few decisions that solidified my taste in my own mind. Being impatient and impulsive cost me a bit.

I am also a Rolex lover, but if I run into Omega snoopy on a platter, I won't hesitate to pull the trigger.
