Why am I not excited about the new Planet Ocean GMT?
It boils down to this:As we would say in the southern US, Rolex done good with this GMT. The case is a well proportioned 42mm in diameter and a comfortable 12.5mm thick which is noticeably thinner than either my Speedy Pro or Planet Ocean. The oyster bracelet gracefully extends from the 21mm lugs to the 18mm wide Easylink clasp with solid screws holding the removable links in place. The clasp has three micro-adjustments in addition to the flip feature that adds another 5mm if your wrist happens to swell in the heat of the day. The benefits of the 904L stainless steel Rolex compared to the 316L Omega SS have been greatly debated but although on paper both grades have the same level of harness, the Rolex clasp and bracelet seem less susceptible to desk diver dings and scratches than my PO LM LE.This model 216570 incorporates the latest cal. 3167 movement with new Paraflex system for absorbing and nullifying the effects of shock on the balance wheel.

Newbie needs help buying first Vintage Seamaster
Hey guys what's up? I'm new to this forum anyways i own 2 late model Rolex, i'm looking into buying a Vintage Omega Seamaster. I really dk much about this style watch. I've been looking on ebay i'm just afraid that i'll spend too much and end up buying a fake. :( Can someone help me. I'm looking for something with a leather band. I plan to wear this as my daily watch. I want a mint watch... i rather spend a little more. I see most of these watches are refinished. How do i know if the mechanisms inside are original? Also automatic is that like my Rolex Sub where I can wind it manuelly and use kinetic energy to power it? I've never own an Omega before. Sorry for the rant, please help. Thanks! I plan to buy something like the model below. Maybe a diff color dial, but I really like this simple style. So clean. Thanks!.ebay/itm/VINTAGE-OMEG...#ht_6691wt_935

New Thoughts
As my signature shows, I've love Panerai & Rolex. However, I popped into Omega's site today and was quite fond of the Speedmaster Day-date reference 3221.30.00. Very SEXY!!!Can any of you fellow TRF's give some feedback on this piece? What can I expect in terms of price from an AD and any discounts they may give? How's the movement?I am new to Omega and have never even tried one on. My next watch was slated to be a Daytona, but it appears this watch is significantly cheaper. Just looking to see how this one stacks up??? Your input is appreciated!
