Omega Speedmaster: Present Day
Speedys in the movies (and TV). Speedmaster, the early years. Graduation to the Professional ranks. Electronic, quartz, and other Speedmaster variations. We've seen a lot of the Speedmaster over the last few articles, and it brings us to the present day.For sure, Omega knows what they have in their heritage. Along with creating new models, the last few years have seen Omega releases in the form of updates to venerable models of the past. These include several models from the Seamaster line, Broad Arrow models, the PloProf, and the Bullhead. The Speedmaster line includes the First Omega In Space homage to Wally Schirra's Mercury Sigma7 mission watch and the new MK II. And most of these reinterpretations carry the new co-axial escapement which the late George Daniels kindly provided the horological world.A quick check of the Omega website shows 13 major Speedmaster models. The variations total 73 different current releases when you add up dial, color, case material, strap/bracelet option

OCD-issues with Bezel
Anyone else experiencing OCD-issues when looking at the notches not perfectly aligning on the Bezel?One would think that Rolex would nail this one, but my experience is that it’s completely random whether or not your notches on the bezel are aligned correctly. Have seen a dozen of Seikos getting this right, same goes for my DeepBlue Daynight.My own hulk lines up 90% perfect, but look at the attached image - this image is used by Rolex themselves on their website Not hating Rolex for this, but I thought we could expect near impeccable work from such a watchmaker.EDIT: Please post photos of your own Rolex and how it lines up.
