Omega Wants Good Constellation Watch
Movements in the models of end higher are clearly Omega co-axial automatic gauges like the 8500/8501, 8520/8521, towards the caliber 2500. Quartz models have movement caliber Switzerland 1376 or 1523. Each size, the Constellation retains the iconic look of the angular case with side mounted "claws." I really think that "claws" are a terrible to discuss the aesthetic features on the case, but it is terminology Omega. One of the elements which is so connected to classical Constellation watches is the homogenous aspect bracelets. Using large links with no gaps, the watches have a very distinct look with the great and simple, although that tapered and complex in the bracelet of the construction. New for today and never a part of the original line are colourful rubber straps that emulate the looks. Tell Omega they would try pairing of diamonds covered watches in gold with a 1982 rubber strap and they would probably laugh you room. How times change.
Omega Planet Ocean 2201.50 Checking in
I just love the new look of Omegas. I believe that they have improved tremendously over the years... too bad they are following the foot steps of Rolex with the yearly price increase. This is a New to me PO 2500C. I like this better than the new ceramics.. best bang for the buck divers IMHO
Best Nautilus / Aquanaut combination - what would you choose
I'm about to pull the trigger and will buy 1 Nautilus and 1 Aquanaut. Models I love are:-Aquanaut 5167r and both 5164's.Nautilus - 5712 g and a and 5726a with leather strap. The crazy wait time for 5711a is just too much for me.If you could have 1 of each which would you choose and why???I'm erring towards 5712g and 5167r just now. Thin case profiles, 1 complicated and 1 time only watch and of course different metals. Sadly, the Premium for 5164r is just a little too much!Which would you choose and why?
Definition of a Grail watch?
This is probably obvious but honestly I feel like everyone's definition of grail watch is so different that sometimes it confuses me. Originally I thought grail watch is a watch that's just too expensive but then unless we are talking about those watches over say a million dollars and that are super limited in who can even buy them, most watches (especially those people sometimes call grail) are technically affordable as they are typically cheaper than a car or in the more extreme cases a house. They may not be something you want to spend the money on, but that's a choice.The other definition I was guessing was that it's a watch that one watch to rule them all in that once you get the grail watch, you are set for that watch for the rest of your life? If that's the case, then no one would be flipping grail watches.So what's your definition of a grail watch? What makes it your grail?
If only Rolex could make a watch to wear everyday.....
Just read this in a Time and Tide article - EVENT: 7 watches spotted at the launch of the Ferrari Portofino in Byron Bay, inc. IWC, Creux Automatiq and Rolex You could get a Rolex or an IWC and spend a lot of money, but I just wanted a watch I could wear every day. - Glenn Butler (big wig entrepreneur in Australia) on why he chose a Shinola. Note: this is not to demean Shinola. They have there place in the watch world. Actually, I like many of the face designs, just too big of a watch for my liking. Opinions are like wrist watches...everyone's watch shows a different time from others, but everyone believes that their time is correct.
