Passed on a Submariner, am I crazy?

For me, it all depends on the watch. Much the way I'd prefer a Honda sedan over a Toyota, but a Toyota SUV over a Honda.

For a daily wearer, I'd prefer my Explorer or an OP over a Constellation or Aqua Terra.

For a diver (that I wouldn't actually dive with), I'd prefer the Seamaster Heritage over a Sub.

For a chronograph I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to go with a moon watch over a Daytona.

For a dual timezone watch, I like the GMT better than the comparable Omegas (but haven't loved a dual time watch since the five-digit Rolexes).

For a PM piece (if I wore those), I'd go DD36 over any of the Omegas (but would pick a Constellation for TT - I think it's the most iconic TT out there after the DJ Jubilee).

That about sums it up for me too almost exactly (especially the Speedmaster), though I would take a 5 digit Sub (like you, not my top choice to dive with).

I want to love the AT, but the reality is it wears too thick for my tastes. If it were a few mm thinner, that would probably be my daily (38mm).

5 digit GMT or Exp II... yes please.
