    Ok fags. This watch is legit. Not my most expensive watch, but certainly the rarest (in this condition). Totally unpolished, unmolested, 1 owner watch in original condition from 1984. This thing is fantastic. Even the paperwork is fantastic and complete - another rarity. Took me almost two years to find this watch in just this condition. Known as the Root Beer in many circles, but also the "nipple dial" (not kidding), Tigers Eye, and most impressively the Clint Eastwood - as it was Clint's favorite watch for about 20 years and worn in several movies. Legendary watch, and in legendary condition. Fuck yeah.

    I'm sure I'll be skewered for saying this, but I like the look of most Omega's more than comparable Rolex watches. On many models the bezels appear narrower / pushed to the edge on the Omega (even if they're really not), maybe a little more modern looking.

    I don't honestly prefer one over the other. I think the Rolex GMT Master II is probably the best looking watch ever made, but the Speedmaster and Seamasters look just as classy to me as the rest of the Rolex stainless steel line. Omega just appeals to me because I'm a pour a new fish in the watch game.
    So much this.

    Now you need the 1958 Submariner or you're a total homo.
    I have to save my money for more GMTs! Was already a total homo.

    On the left is my daddy's GMT II Coke that I need to inherit now god damn it!! On the right is my pour people Pierce Brosnan Omega. It holds up pretty well I think for a fraction of the price.


    You need to get that damn Coke.

    So Swaye, these are two that are rapidly gaining in my short list...IFL like the late 50's vintage looking pieces. They just scream Bond with the cig lighter in Goldfinger.





    Love me some Tudor and if you like the 57 trilogy Seamaster check out the Speedmaster. Killer.
