omega vs Tudor...which would you choose.
2 very similar watches, both pleasing on the eye, both re-makes of classics. Which would you choose:
Omega Speedmaster professional mk 2 racing or Tudor Heritage chrono |

Tough one as I like both they both have a great 70's feel to them. I think I d go omega as I like the case shape slightly more than the Tudor

Dig the colours and retro-ness of the Omega more here.

For me, easy choice is the Tudor. Although I respect Omega as a brand, I prefer the cleaner...less busy dial on that heritage!

Tudor, especially if you add the cyclops for extra retro styling.

THC no contest. The Omega is thick and has way too many surfaces that will get scuffed and scratched. There is only one Omega chrono to own: Speedy.

I've handled both watches, the Omega in a flash, no contest, it's a very cool watch.

as not a fan of either, I think the omega would get my attention more due to the unique case.

I love the dial on the omega but when I tried it on, on my small wrist, the depth of it looked massive! There's a pic in my thread form earlier this week.

Tudor between those two. Against the Speedy Pro a much closer call, and would go the other way for me.

Both look great, but I'd probably go Tudor. Am really starting to dig Tudors in a big way. It looks retro, and personally I think it has a bit more subtle kudos.

I'd have to throw in a vote for the Omega ... Styling is incredible and I'd feel like a race car driver with it on my wrist.
