TimeToPretend Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) I've decided to give watch collecting a rest. This will be the last watch I'll be getting, so keep in mind that the watch's lifespan is probably the most important factor to consider. Should I get this Omega: OR This Rolex Sub rep The Omega costs $10 more but at this price point, I could care less, unless, of course, they're equal in just about every other aspect. Both reps are just under $100. Edited January 26, 2013 by TimeToPretend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashy? With that said, the gen is still half the price of the Rolex. Edited January 26, 2013 by TimeToPretend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimeToPretend Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 I edited the post and replaced the old Omega with (what I'm assuming is) a better looking one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 My preference would be the Rolex. I have toyed with Omegas over the years, There are none in my collection now. In the past 15 years, I have had a Seamaster 300 /date,Seamaster 300 non date, X-33 and a older Speedy Pro. Never really were the watches that "sang " to me. My wife has a SS Seamaster 120 which she almost never wears, so there must nbe something about Omegas at our house!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtguk Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 I do like Omega and I can't see the first pic now either but get the Rolex mate, you'll be a lot happier with that on the wrist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimeToPretend Posted January 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 I already went ahead and bought the Rolex two days ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
