I can, I own a speedy and a new release seamaster pro. If I could afford to own more I would it never ends, I really wish I could find one perfect watch and be done, I’ve been through almost all the ss Rolex models and nothing sticks around. The only watch I really love is my speedy.

Omega is looking mighty tempting with all the rolex nonsense.

That is The Biggest Question: What is the perfect watch? Similar thing happening to me: It takes time to know which is the watch that truly stays in my collection. I need to spend some time with the watch. But this way might be expensive way of finding The One and Only... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Around here you're only beginning to approach "normal" :-)
I enjoy my Speedmaster Pro and my Aqua Terra. They were gifts to me from my wife! I would love to have an Hour Vision! It's such a cool watch, with so much rich Omega character. |

I like the brand and have owned several over the years. I currently don't own one.

Thanks TRF members. With regards to the Omega De Ville Hour Vision do you think it is worth to spend extra for the Annual Calendar vs Regular Date?
I am planning to pull the trigger next month. Any feedback you have is appreciated. |

If I were to go this route, and yearly calendars were important to me, I would likely save up and go for a perpetual calender.

4 - Planet Ocean black 39.5mm 8800, Aqua Terra 38.5mm blue "Skyfall" 8500, Aqua Terra 38mm black 8800, and the Seamaster 300 Master Coaxial Diver 8400. I love them all except the SM300MC which I find has obnoxious case ergonomics (straight lugs) and is generally a very boring watch other than the beautiful movement view through the caseback. As soon as I find something to replace it with, it's out the door.

All my Omega are quartz and are digital-analog :)

FYI, one of our favorite Trusted Sellers (DavidSW) has a pre-owned Annual Calendar with the silver dial right now. Also, the watch was on sale as of last night when I was browsing his site. I'm probably going to regret giving you this tip because I'm saving funds to buy it and I'm not quite there yet! |

I tried to like it but just didn't quite get there. What are you considering to take its place?

I did email DavidSW a few weeks ago about the watch. I am leaning towards the Blue Dial version of the Hour Vision.

My wife has more of the bug than me. She loves Omega. She has a quartz constellation and one other that escapes me. Rather embarrassing since I'm the one that got them for her, though it was at a time before I started taking a real interest in watches.
I just have one, SMPc 300. |
