For me it has to be the Tudor Pelagos.
Although bigger its tough as hell and has a presence on the wrist that a Speedy cant match. |

I'd go with the pelagos. Big, but the titanium makes it light and comfy

Alright so I've been MIA planning my next purchase. I took everyone's advice and did pulled the Rolex purchase up! I was in Rome this weekend for my birthday and wife pushed me to make the purchase (I'm a finance guy - tough to pull the trigger without a little nudge)! I bought the Sub c date!

That's exactly what I did. I considered buying a cheaper Omega, but was encouraged to buy the Sub now because that's what I would end up with in the end after I bought the Omega, flipped it, and then bought the Sub. anyway

Sapphire: I like messing with the symmetry of the hands.

Speedmaster Professional for me. It is an absolute pleasure to wear one. Everything about it feels right...

I would go with the Speedy and then opt for the Sub when the finances allow it. Pelagos and Sub would in my opinion look too much alike.

Speedy is my next watch! Need to start saving from scratch now. It's an amazing watch I agree 100% - rolex sub was always my dream watch. The last couple of days wearing it have been a joy

I think that if ultimately you might want a Sub then I would skip the Pelagos and buy the Speedy now and save for a Sub new or pre-owned. The Speedy is very versatile to wear - check threads on strap options.

x 2... I have bought and sold Speedy's a few times, but I always come back to it so I am keeping my most recent acquisition. It really is a timeless design that looks vintage and modern all at once.

I still want a Speedmaster but will most likely buy vintage. I've already owned the newest reference Speedmaster and I had huge issues getting the bracelet to fit. |
