SMP & PO review. Not a vs. review
I was on another forum where someone asked if he should get a PO and SMP. I wrote a review about it as I am fortunate enough to have both. I thought I'd post it here too.Watched uses are the SMP 2541 Quartz and PO 42mm Co-Axial.WEAR/STYLINGSMP:The SMP wears a lot thinner then the PO. This makes the SMP a fantastic watch for dressier occasions. I have never had any problems with fitting the SMP under a shirt cuff. Size wise they are about he same diameter. Although it makes a good formal watch, it is also suited for causal and even down right beach wear. Omega got it correct with the styling here. The wave dial give is a fantastic look depending on how the light hits it. It looks like a true divers watch.PO:The PO has more wrist presence for sure. It is thicker then the SMP. I wear it to work. My job is semi-casual so I wear a shirt but dont have the cuffs buttoned up. It sits higher on the wrist but not overly high. It wears more smart-causal to casual and outdoor activity then formal.
An Omega...Sort of..
I always get questions when I wear this watch.... Here are fresh pictures..Lanco was made by the Langendorf Company (LanCo) in the mid 1800's, and ceased production in about 1973.. During it's last years, this company was owned by Omega/Tissot and Omega did market the name with Tissot movements.. This great company was a very progressive company and only fell due to mis-management and not because the movements or watches were second-class. It became a victim of the Quartz movement as Omega moved to consolidate and keep itself alive..This one is from the mid-60's, a few years before the buy-out by Omega>You can see the dial shows 45 years of time and also has a touch of moisture issue at the top... however, everything, including the crystal is original (except the strap)The dial is unusual because it has the traditional tachymeter in the black outer chapter, but also has a Telemeter dial with red numbering.. This Telemeter feature allowed you to time those things that traveled a
Picked up a new watch today!
Hey everyone, just picked up a new watch this afternoon and thought I would share the joy :) I've been drooling over this one for a while now, and due to losing sleep because of my drooling I decided to just go for it. I own a fair number of sports watches now, so I figured it's time to get a dress watch--especially since my TT Date is in for servicing. As I mentioned in another post, the three watches that I planned on buying this year are: Omega Deville Hour Vision, SS Daytona, and a PAM 233. So one down and 2 to go :)DeVille Hour VisionRose Gold, Leather Strap41mm Case DiameterTransparent Back and SidesCal. 8501 (Omega's first completely in-house caliber in decades)
Servicing a Rolex with an aftermarket bezel insert
First of all, apologies for the long post, I just want to properly explain the situation.
I have a GMT Master II (16710), which I'm planning to take in for a service. It originally had an all black bezel, but last summer for fun I decided to buy an aftermarket Pepsi insert. I liked it much more than I expected, and having bought a second watch (an old Cellini) for more dressy occasions, have decided to stick with the Pepsi bezel.Now, I'm considering taking the watch in for a service at my local RSC. It doesn't desperately need it, but I think it could do with one, as it's never been serviced (and is now almost 20 years old). I know that Rolex won't be happy about the after-market bezel insert, but to be honest I'm happy for them to throw it away and put a genuine one in there, in fact that's my goal. However I don't really want to lose my black bezel (should I wish to change again in future), so am considering fibbing and telling them I don't have it, in the hope that I wi
