Lol ZK thought you were older! Anyway, I agree: everything is [censored] up, even at work or in the real world.

Dear all, In this new year I wish all the best to Rwg and to all of you. Waiting the new year I'll wear my trusty 14060M COSC. No Wristshot sadly. Best luck guys. Cheers!

Santa got me the nice Nifty Fifty, the 50mm f1.8. It's a little piece of plastic, but sucks light nicely and do the job for a 100 euro circa.

I'm, really happy with it! Nice bookeeeeeehlicious pics!

 

Anyway, I'm using the 50 f1.8 on a crop sensor (EOS 600D), it's 50 * 1.6. Good for portraits, details, but it puts a limit to what you can actually shoot.

 

So I'm twitched between a Canon 35mm f2, 28mm f1.8 (wider and more light!!!) and the crop sensor designed Sigma 30mm f1.4.

 

Does anyone have a 35 mm f2? Or the 28mm f1.8?

I mainly do shoot watches and street photography.

 

I think I'll not choose the Sigma, only because I might upgrade in the future to a full frame body...

 

Any advice welcome!

Gen Tudor boxes are really good, aren't them? They are better than Rolex IMHO. Congrats and merry christmas!

Congrats ZK!!!!

I figured it had to be!  If there was a rep that good out there and I didn't own it already I was going to cry!  If you ever sell it, let me know... :-)

Lol dude! No 14060 rep looks good. Not even the wokky new ceramic one. I bet case and insert are 1 mm smaller than 16610 sub case. So no franken either.

Great shots.   I'm a big Omega fan but nothing beats the classic steel Sub.

Since this review I worn only the Omega as a daily beater. Tomorrow I'll switch back to Rolex. I consider them my two favorite watches, but I have to admit I have a favorite one. Sadly nothing has the size, charme, appearence, appeal, sexyness of a steel submariner.

Wow what is that? I love it Sent from my DROID4 using Tapatalk 2

Poljot made this "ocean" vintage model. They look like the original OKEAH. 7733 Poljot clone, known as 3133. Manual winding,

Interesting comparison laying these two watches next to each other.

I would preffer the Omega mostly because of the more beatifull bracelet.

Tnx!

The sub is smaller. You should try it on the wrist. They have pros and cons just like everything in life.

The Omega is a stunning watch and gen lume charge very hard!

Thanks everyone for the appreciation.

Great pictures!  Details on the sub please?

Fidhle, it looks nice 'coz it's a gen 14060m cosc from 2009 V serial :-)

I love it. Keep it this way!

A small tribute to this awesome community!

amazing display!

I'm the first! Everyone sleeping? C'mon wake up!!!!!! 

Seamaster and Submariner together

 

 

 

Wetty Seamaster of focus

 

 

And Submariner on focus

 

 

Even staring at this distance you can definitely see the 2 mm difference in the bracelet, the case, the dial.

The Submariner is definitely smaller!

 

 

Double AR. Can't fight that.

 

 

And a crop...

 

 

 

Omega in focus

 

And finally

 

 

Rolex in focus...ohhh that awesome endlink fit! Only a gen can do that!

 

So here we are. This is the end.

Hope you enjoyed this!

 

Take care

So, let's talk about the 14060M...

It's gourgeous. Period.

 

 

 

Beautifully layed down in the snow. That black and steel beauty!

 

Altough the superluminova dial doesn't charge quickly as the Omega....

 

 

Zooming in...

 

A little more....

 

 

So let's see how does it look on the tree.

 

 

 

 

So let's see a crystal comparison...

 

 

Ok, got it. It's like shooting on the Red Cross.

 

Let's see if closing up will get this any better.....nope!

 

 

No ARed Crystal says: "Ok, double AR you won. But remember you can be scratched 10x more easily than me!!!!"

 

In the next and final chapter we'll see those two beauties pose together for us!

 

Why this review?

 

Because I feel like these two watches are the most versatile watches I own. I wear'em often, instead of the Tudor 70330N for example, which I'm considering to sell for another Rolex...dunno yet...tempted by a 16700/10 or a 168000. Oh well, tempted even by the grail 16520 in white... but 8200 euros are too much money now.

 

So let's start with the Omega 2054.50. Yes, not 2254.50, but 2054.50. If you google that, you'll find out what's the difference. I like this combo a lot. Never thought it could work, but once I swapped the bracelet...BANG! Worked to my eyes...

 

 

Mmm that double ARed crystal! (yes, I forgot to mention this is a franken and that's a Chief double ARed crystal).

 

Also yesterday has snowed here in North Italy, so today only frozing pics for you guys!

 

 

Zoom out. That black wawed dial....Those drops on the bracelet midlinks

 

 

And zoom in! Yes, you can say that. The dial is amazing. And the genuine lume is charging harder. You can notice it's already glowing.

 

If you are a true WIS and nitpicker, you can notice the SEL gap between the upper left lug, and that the insert is after market.

Those things are really disturbing... I'm considering buying a gen case on cousinsuk. They run for about 610 euros or so. Will it worth the investment? Yes and no.

I would like to save some money for my next watch, so probably this investment will wait...

 

Let's continue...

 

 

 

Let's zoom in!

 

 

Ahhh nothing like a gen dial!

 

 

OH LORD MY EYES! WHAT HAPPENED! JEEZ!!!! Anyway, a gen tree.

 

 

Oh that's better!

 

And close up....

 

 

So, in the next post we'll see some Rolex eyecandy!

As I promised I shoot some photos. Omega Seamaster 2054.50 VS Rolex Submariner 14060M COSC.

 

Be patient as I prepare this set...

 

In the mean while check this one, just for teasing...

 

Mmm nice dial...

<p>GREAT shots. Great watches. I esp. love the no-date Sub. <img class="bbc_emoticon" src="http://www.rwg.cc/public/style_emoticons/default/good.gif" title=":good:" /></p>

Man! Feels rewarding here it from you.

Talking about no date subs... I'm chasing a gen 168000 b&p...

But it's really difficult to find a good one... Too many 16800 turned into 168000

It's just a background for a photo. Surely a diver feels more at home on the beach or near a diver's equipement.

Next time I'll be' near a lake/sea I'll take some theme shots...

AD! It's gen 

 

V serial June 2009

I never tought I would have liked an Omega SMP with the bond bracelet...

 

Turns out that the 2054.50 is a classy watch... I like it a lot!!!

More to come....stay tuned.

 

 

 

 

Thanks to everyone for the appreciation. It has been a pleasure share this little beauties with you...
