Congratulations on your EW321. Looks amazing (as does your Daytona)!

Beautiful !!! I have to say that always wearing Rolex and now this is quite different. This watch reminds me to my Nautilus, feel light and delicate

Good question I’ll answer you this way ..

My favourite chronograph is the 321. In my mind it’s the perfect iteration of what a chrono should be. Manual wind, historically significant, technical/functional aesthetics.

My favourite diver is the Rolex Submariner. A legend, iconic design, arguably the best diver invented.

My favourite GMT, the Rolex BLRO. Beautiful modern reproduction of a classic, simple 24 hour / travel operation, straddles the line between dress and casual (for me).

Congrats! You will love it. I need to wear mine more. It’s accurate too +3 per day overall. The crown is so smooth too when turning it. I can see why everyone out there loves theirs. I had to go grey w this one. You won’t regret it :)

Congrats on the acquisition! I am very intrigued by the EW.

A bit off topic and potentially controversial, what are thoughts on EW321 vs. 50th Snoopy? I honestly haven't checked prices on the Snoopy lately.

321 in a heartbeat over a 50th Snoopy. If given the choice one over the other.

I owned both (briefly ) …

I agree with @Onequik135i for me the 321 is the better watch. Don’t get me wrong, the Snoopy is a beautiful reference, but for me the legibility was horrible and I moved it on rather quickly. I know to some legibility isn’t a big deal but to me it is.

Close your eyes … now open them quickly … what time is it

It’s even worse when the hour hand and minute hand are above the sub dials …

I've always loved the legibility of the Speedy. So easy to read. It was one of my go to watches when I would run discussion groups and had to adhere to a timed agenda. Maybe it's time to free Snoopy and put the proceeds towards an Ed White. I'll probably take it on the chin with that transaction!

Oh Wow I have been wearing it for 24h now, the watch is amazing, I simply love it, have to admit I’m not into Omega at all but my AD, a good friend of mine and Brian did the rest of the job….so beautiful and delicate.

Man I think you are leaning more to Omega than Rolex
