Omega advice needed
Hey fellow Omega aficionadosI have been buying fairly heavily into Rolex over the last 6 months and have gathered an early 64 Explorer, a 1680 Red Sub, a transitional 16800 with crazy tango lume, a new TT GMTIIc and most recently a new WG Sub. Oh and also a Rolex Tudor (panda dial) Oysterdate. I am now turning my attention back to Omega as I feel a status change coming over the next 3-5 years and was wondering what you guys and gals feel would be a nice addition or two to my collection.It can be new or old but probably max size of 40mm. Currently, my Omegas are a pre-moon 69 Moonwatch (currently on an Ofrei racing strap but I also have the original bracelet with the angled omega sign), a 58 international series small seconds on alligator, a black face 67 Seamaster date on the original 9 row beads of rice bracelet and lastly a frankenstein 1931 (originally a gold pocket watch) conversion. Any ideas welcome and a brief reason why? And to whet your appetite, here's a few pics of the on
Nautilus Reference # help please
I'm not terribly familiar with the various Nautilus models, and the Patek website is pretty ponderous to navigate. Would someone mind posting the various stainless models on bracelets that are currently available, and roughly their sizes? I love my Aquanaut and I'm setting my sights on my next PP. I think a great addition would be something beyond a date complication and on a bracelet. I'm leaning 5712 but I'm just not familiar enough with the line to zero in on a piece. Many thanks!
Trade Up Two For One?
Lately I've subscribed to the one dress watch/one play watch/whatever else matters not theory. I have a Calatrava and an Aquanaut, and whatever else is my Cartier Roadster 40th birthday gift.I've been contemplating adding a Rolex Sub or DJ2. I love Rolex, have none at the moment, and really miss having one. But the reality is, with the Aquanaut on the winder, I can't justify two play watches (just the phase I'm going through). Yes, I know some love the variety and wear them in rotation, but that's not my thing right now.To further complicate matters (my first world problem), the Aquanaut does not have me over the moon like I expected. My feelings range from this is it! to this is it? I'm usually happy with it and think I'll keep it...But then I begin to think...(drum roll)Would It be best to trade the Calatrava and Aquanaut for a complication (annual calendar)?I would then have one dressy Patek AC and add a Rolex (depending on how much I had left over) as a play watch.Of course the oth
Pam 389
So, I am lusting over 389, but I am seeing a problem which really bothers me. I have examined this watch from AD and boutique and I have studied countless pictures online and I can say that the bubble markers on the bezel don't line up with the markers on the dial. I don't think it can be fixed with re-aligning the bezel. Typically I see that 30min hole is slightly off, sometimes 15min hole does not line up when all other holes line up. For 389 owners, do you have this problem, does that bother you at all??
Does the fade on this 14060 insert look artificial?
I think I can count the number of faded inserts for a 14060 that ive seen on one hand. Does this one look artificially faded to anyone? I would think the back would be much darker since it usually isnt subjected to the same environment as the face but I may be wrong.
