Watches - another OCD problem
-
I think that the value of an Omega watch depends on the model.
The Railmaster is £5,000, whereas the Rolex Air-King is £4500. The Omega is a limited edition and comes with a couple of straps, so there might be some justification for spending a bit more.
But the Ploprof is £9000. I'm not sure what a Submariner costs, but it's probably a fair bit less. That's harder to swallow, even though it's the most awesome dive watch ever.

Call me a nerd (which I am), but I think I need this watch in my life in the near future.

here's some stuff for you guys to drool over…

I have a new respect for G-Shock after wearing it for a few weeks now. I don't have to take off the watch no matter what kind of stupid shit I'm doing, and I've been setting the audible alarms two minutes before meetings to remind me to quit screwing around (or to let employees know I gotta go, I have a meeting).
On top of that, it's light, supremely accurate with the atomic sync, and won't need a service in the next decade due to the solar charging.
Definitely worth the additional functionality for me at the expense of the romance associated with a mechanical watch.
I won't sell my mechanical watches, but deep down, I'm a function over form kind of guy.

C'mon, you know you want to give me that Seamaster Professional…

Seiko recently opened a boutique in Melbourne, and I stumbled across it today. I was rather taken by this quartz model, with a gorgeous blue-green dial.
They'd actually got a Credor Eichi II in a few weeks back for a customer. It'd already gone out, unfortunately.

My daily watch .. Breitling Superocean II …

This is my everyday watch. ICERC GShock. Something about “love the sea and the earth.” And saving the whales. I’m all for that

Not normally a Breitling fan but that superocean…...........

A lot of nice (Expensive) watches on here!!
I have a smaller budget.
any thoughts on these 2 from Steinhart ?
980 euro and 490 euro

Steinhart makes solid watches at competitive prices. I've owned a couple over the years and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. My biggest issue with the company is that they mimic Rolex styling far too closely for my preference.
That said, I've always loved the Daytona and it's many, many imitators…
