Antigua - what watch(s) to take?
This is NOT a thread about safety concerns. We will be at an All-Inclusive resort (Sandals) for 5 nights. No excursions, we do not leave the resort.
What watch(s) to bring: 1. Bring only the Omega Seamaster 300 Professional on rubber strap and wear it at the beach, pool and evening dinners. Wear it all the time. 2. Bring the Omega and beater. Wear the beater during the day and the Omega at night. 3. Leave the Omega home and just bring a beater to wear all the time. |

None. You're on vacation. The time isn't important.

Wore it in the pool today, ocean tomorrow. I think the chlorine in the pool game the watch a shine. Washed it with tap water before wearing to dinner. Thanks all.

Very comfy watch to wear all day. Love the rubber strap.
Green band, green bezel, green dial. |

Watch is holding up great in the pool and ocean. I just rinse it off at night before we go for dinner. Bye the way, the weather in Antigua is amazing. Understand bad weather coming to the NY are tomorrow, we leave and return home on Friday. We are staying at Sandals, they do a good job.

Glad to see that you made the right choice.
I'd like to hear (read) your thoughts/review of the resort. How was the food, accommodations, service, etc.?

I made a post on trip advisor. Bottom line the resort, the food the pools, the beach is really outstanding. However, the rooms are outdated and I would not go back until they have been renovated.

I went to the same resort a few years ago. I agree, they needed renovations on the rooms even back then. I ended up taking an omega as well. Glad you enjoyed it.
