Victoria Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 Might be gone most of Monday, and this is my favourite RWG thread series. Don't want to miss out! MONDAY: Since it's raining kittens in SoFla, the never-worn before silicone Panerai strap from Andrew on the PAM 111h. TUESDAY: At the spa last week, waiting for my manicure, reading W's feature on Posh & Becks. PAM 118/PAV 91. Fetch! ...thinking of getting a Greg Stevens Crazy Horse with black stitch for my new Lion Purdey PAM. Thoughts? Too butch for me? He's advertising them on Paneristi, before apparently raising prices this September...........thanks to Laz for the heads up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeeJay Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 La Dolce Vita, indeed, rolli. My parents worked hard for me, and soon, it will be my turn for them. But on a more serious note, I am reminded that not everything is Dom Perignon, canap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By-Tor Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 I am going to ask a question I've been dying to, but don't kill me, By-Tor! Do you prefer your Omegas or Rolexes better? Hi Victoria. I have a weird love/hate relationship with Rolex. My old man has huge gen Rolex collection... and of course boys always grow up admiring their fathers (in good and bad). I like all the classic Rolex sports models (Sub, ExpII, GMT, SD), but despise their whole gold/dressy lineup... and what Rolex has become (as a brand). It's difficult to say which I like more, but I definitely like Omegas just as much. Something like the SMP Chrono is pretty much "perfect" watch. At least for me. Looks like these Rolexes have gotten more wrist time lately. That's mainly because I've been buying and selling them all the time. I have a perfect Omega collection, now I want best reps of all the Rolex models I've always wanted and be done with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 I am going to ask a question I've been dying to, but don't kill me, By-Tor! Do you prefer your Omegas or Rolexes better? No directed at me, I know, but personally, I prefer Omegas better. I used to really like Rolexes, but I think that was because that was the only 'high end brand' I'd really heard of. As I got more into watches, I read a comparison between an Omega Seamaster and a Rolex Submariner (which the Omega came top in) so I decided to take a look at them. I liked what I saw. Larger dials and hands, so clearer viewing, and better engineered bracelets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victoria Posted July 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Hi Victoria. I have a weird love/hate relationship with Rolex. My old man has huge gen Rolex collection... and of course boys always grow up admiring their fathers (in good and bad). They also grow up resenting their father's tastes, from musical to political to watches. *g* But yes, I know what you mean. It also reminds me a little of what they said about our generation: My Boomer parents grew up appreciating everything French, from wine, to clothes, to general culture. But the pendulum has swung towards Italy for my (late) fellow Gen X'ers. Instead of Chanel and Dior, it's Armani and Versace, and so on down the taste line. For Boomers, the Rolex was the top dog but I personally appreciate the Omega more. That's certainly the case within my set of friends, as highlighted by this fellow (not to imply he's a friend! Hehe). TeeJay concurred, and he's a little younger than I am. Looks like these Rolexes have gotten more wrist time lately. That's mainly because I've been buying and selling them all the time. I have a perfect Omega collection, now I want best reps of all the Rolex models I've always wanted and be done with it. Be done with it! Perish the thought, By-Tor. You'll just start a whole 'nuther obsession by then. I see Panerai holds no interest for you though... @V: You have extraordinary taste in straps, V. You NEVER EVER put a foot wrong. Like Corpsman, I want to know where you got that Metta strap... @ fellow SoFloridian, ssabripo: BEAUTIFUL PO! You just made me love the purchase I made, sight practically unseen. Ditto Corpsman. @guy with the guitar: you rock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
