Breaking News: Christie's New York To Hold 'The Omega Speedmaster 50' Thematic Sale This December
It's safe to say the Omega Speedmaster is one of the most universally adored timepieces in all the land. Its combination of timeless design, excellent movement and build quality, plus its superior place in the global cultural narrative, elevate it beyond simply a watch to a downright icon of American, and even world, history. Today, we are thrilled to announce that Christie's will be celebrating this iconic chronograph with a thematic sale entitled "OMEGA SPEEDMASTER 50: From A Spacewalk To Today." 1 OF 6 The 50-lot sale marks the half-century anniversary of the Omega Speedmaster's first trip into space, on the wrist of Gemini IV astronaut Ed White during his history-making space walk.

Comparing Sub, GMT, SD4K Lugs
Just posted this in another thread but maybe it warrants a new one? Thought I'd see if I could cobble together a reasonably accurate picture comparing the lugs of the SubC, GMT-II Pepsi, and SD4K. It's not perfect but I used several reference points as guides. I do see the difference between the Sub and the GMT, subtle though it is – I think this obsessional, comparative view makes the new, slight taper (more) evident. Seems reasonable to think a Sub update would inherit the new GMT case. Who knows? What's really clear is why the SD4K suits my small wrist so much better than the others. Very apparent difference.Anyway, as a relative newbie, wanted to try to give back to the forum!

Incomming from an AD!
While it hasn't been long since I joined TRF, I have been purchasing Rolexes from the trusted sellers here for years. From Sub C Date, LVC, 116520 Daytona, BNLR, GMT II-C, 116500 Daytona, IWC 3714 Portuguese, Omega Moon Watch to 116515 Daytona, I've bought and traded in a lot of watches for the past 5-6 years. After going through all the watches, I've came to a personal realization that classics, such as GMT II-C, 116520 Daytona and Sub C, are the watches I'll end up keeping. I wish I never flipped the 116520 Daytona, and I plan on purchasing a new old stock 116520 in the distant future.In the meantime, here is my newest incomming from an AD, Sub-C No Date. The sales person at the AD thought this was my first Rolex as I look young and wasn't wearing any watches I purchased a No Date as I already have a GMT II-C with the date function. Here comes the pics!
