Cartier, Speedmaster, Seiko and Suunto Stinger for my scuba diving

Ultraman · 23 January 2010, 08:29 PM

Tag Link Chrono.

Rob587 · 9 January 2010, 02:27 PM

Started with a Tag as well. Still have it. Probably would only buy tag if Rolex wasnt around. Rolex is Tags big brother in the jewelry store.

I discovered Rolex early on in the 80's in miami during the drug era everyone seemed to have a Rolex except me and I wanted one but could not afford
it. it wasn't till I was in my 40's that I could have one. my 1st Rolex was a Sub TT Black bezel K series 2002, my 2nd was a Sub SS date D series 2006, now I own a DSSD V series and I am very happy with it, My next Rolex will be a YM TT white dial but I want it with an updated bracelet so I will wait.....

chrislkb · 24 June 2010, 12:06 AM

It was a pre-owned Tag but alas, its a lost love. Selling it

1000ftSub · 24 June 2010, 01:21 AM

Movado got me started on loving watches!

Atomant · 8 July 2010, 12:31 PM

A whole bunch mainly mickey mouse watches, casios, Oris but I know it will eventually be a Rolex on my wrist.

I remember seeing Rolex ads on newspapers n asking myself 'What kind of a man do I have to be to be able to wear one of those'.

Tek · 8 July 2010, 03:22 PM

Casio,Swatch,Citizen eco drive(4yrs still wearing for work & in a prety sorry state, can't use the crown because it comes off & I can't adjust anything. Tissot, Longgine cosmograph traded that in for the Omega Seamaster Sword hands, Rolex Sub-Date. Very happy to own the Seamaster and extremely happy & proud to own the Sub. Hopefully I can own more CROWNS.

Andrés G · 8 July 2010, 03:50 PM

The Omega Seamaster 225450 was my first "real" watch.

frch1104 · 12 August 2012, 05:44 AM

Omega Seamaster chrono and Omega Speedmaster, they do not get the same attention any more, too bad, both great watches.

oztimelord · 9 January 2010, 03:53 PM

Started with Tag then Franck Muller then Panerai, Patek and finally Rolex.

Wasn't really into Rolex until I bought a Daytona and a Sea Dweller

Tag and Rolex are two differet classes of watches. Tag's are nice but not even parallell with Omega and Ebel, IMO. Wife has a Tag that is TT gold plated with Swarovski crystal MOP dial. Won't find TT gold plated or Swarovski in vintage or new Omega, Ebel or Rolex!!

therolexguy · 9 January 2010, 02:38 PM

then it turned into: Sector, Tag Heuer, Omega, Maurice Lacroix, Panerai, and IWC

But it all came to ROLEX

Tony2 · 9 January 2010, 02:41 PM

Tag, just bought an Omega PO, now looking for the right Rolex!

ttannert · 9 January 2010, 02:42 PM

I wore my Tag that I still have kept over the years.

SLS · 9 January 2010, 03:29 PM

I started off with a Tag 200 meter quartz Diver that my wife Bought me in 1996. I wore it religiously until May of 2005 when I purchased my SD....and the rest is history. Tag makes a quality watch, and trust me, I beat the heck out of that thing! I have only changed the battery once, and I noticed last night that the battery had stopped. I'm not sure what Tag's service center is like, but it will make a great watch for my son in a few years, so I may have it cleaned up.

The nicest watch I had before my 1st Rolex was a Raymond Weil Tango my gf (now wife) bought me. Crap, I just realized it's not in my sig!

jrssv · 9 January 2010, 03:36 PM

Omegas. I gave them to my son-in-laws and they are enjoying them.

chriseskew24 · 9 January 2010, 03:37 PM

Seiko Tudor Rolex Omega Rolex Omega and hopefully another Rolex real soon.. Or Tudor for that matter.

brady · 9 January 2010, 04:15 PM

First "nice" watch was a black face, ss bracelet Tag Carrera. Still have it but it does not get much wrist time anymore. Next one was a polar Exp II that I regrettably traded. Oops!

swatty · 9 January 2010, 04:18 PM

Omega Seamaster and Breitling Sextant Chrono with Blue dial

Watch Professor · 9 January 2010, 04:18 PM

Had and sold three Tags. Still have the Omega Constellation "Double Eagle", and 2 Concord Saratogas. Also, 2 Seiko 5's, Citizen Eco-Drive, and others.

and my Rolex

Warnsboy · 9 January 2010, 04:41 PM

Nice Concord!! And others

JBat · 9 January 2010, 05:31 PM

As far as mechanicals go, Omega Seamaster Pro. Still have and it's a great watch.

USCpaneristi · 9 January 2010, 05:53 PM

which barely ever gets worn now (too small now... thinking of giving it to my girlfriend). Hey Safetrends, my dad has that same watch but with a white dial. You're right, scratch magnet, but a helluva great watch. He absolutely loves it.

level · 8 July 2010, 06:52 AM

Omega SMP pre-bond. Still have it today and wear occasionally.
