Omega Sedna Gold And Sochi Games Limited Edition Watches Announced Pre-Basel 2013
Omega?is clearly prepared for BaselWorld 2013 and has announced three new limited edition models in advance of the show, which takes place in April of this year. The most interesting part of the announcement is the debut of a new gold alloy they call "Sedna". The first of their timepiece announcements is the Constellation Sedna, a ladies' sized Constellation crafted from this new alloy. A mix of gold, copper and palladium renders a case that looks very much like rose gold and exhibits a strong reddish hue.

Thanks!

Alfa Romeo Giulia or Platinum DayDate
The title should say it all. This is totally a midlife crisis purchase for a single guy in the early 50s. I'm sure there are pros and cons for both but unfortunately I can only pick one So what say you all TRF peeps?
