New 007 First Light in Person

Tried this one on. Boy howdy this is a big watch. Didn’t even bother strapping it all the way on as was comically large on me.

007 First light Chronograph Seamaster confirmed!

The Seamaster Chronograph from the 007 first light video game finally gets an official reveal. There were rumors for so long but they actually finally made it! Pretty cool. I believe this is an omega first as well.

Omega 007 First Light!

$9,400. I initially thought Omega would have priced this higher than the current SMP Chronograph.

New Launch: Omega Seamaster 007 First Light!

Omega just released a new chronograph diver supposedly worn by the the spy in the new James Bond video game.

Oddly enough, it’s based on the ceramic dial platform. So is the main Seamaster 300M line (future launches) still Ceramic Dial + Ceramic Bezel?

Was the aluminium bezel retro Seamaster Omega launched just a one off?

I hope it is. 😁

[Omega Speedmaster] NWD: 1973 Speedy.

I've always loved speedmasters, but never really felt like chasing one until I saw this '73 Professional. It came with an aftermarket band (already sourcing a bracelet), repro (repop?) hands, and some bezel wear, but it was a good price and somehow exactly right for my collection. Just serviced, too. All that being said, it's def not perfect, but I love this watch.

Which one one would you guys pick?

I have a choice to make. Which would you choose. I got got called for the 321 but that reverse panda love got me infatuated. What do you all think?

New Speedy! In love… but it has failed!

I bought my new white dial Moonwatch 3861, it’s beautiful, comfy, and the boutique staff were marvellous. However within 2 days of wearing the watch sporadically loses time throughout the day. I woke up this morning with it 2 hours gone, wound back to full as I did both previous mornings, and within an hour it had lost 5 minutes. I’ll take it back to the boutique, I’m sure they’ll be gracious, but it is very disappointing. I’m still pleased, but feel pretty sad.

How long will my new treasure be away for repairs?

Looking to pick up the FOIS but a bit concerned by the size. Thoughts ?

6 months with my Omega Speedmaster Professional

Celebrated my 30th birthday last year by finally treating myself to a watch I’d admired ever since getting into this hobby nearly 12 years ago. What first sparked my love for watches was a graduation gift from my mom back in high school — a Seiko SKX007.

After going through 10+ watches over the years — from Oris and Hamilton to Tudor, I finally own one of my dream watches. Truth be told I did pick up a 3510 last year, to which it did sort of scratch the itch. But ultimately I was still longing for the Pro!!

Included a few of the current “next up” contenders as well:

Rolex Explorer II 16570
Tudor Black Bay 54
IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40

Cheers all

Cool moon-watch desk stand

Cheap little speedy stand, but a cool history nod purchased after watching yet another doc on the Saturn V.

Speedy Racing

Taken yesterday. This dial changes completely in the right light.

My first luxury watch had to be an Omega

I’ve loved watches for years but have never been in a position to buy a really nice watch. I got promoted at work, I am making more, and I turn 30 in June so I figured now would be a great time to gift myself one. First image is AI enhanced because lighting in my house sucks. But I’m so thrilled to have something so nice.

A decision needs to be made

Photos are just for reference and not the specific watches I’ll be picking up so ignore the conditions. I’ve ultimately decided to pick up a seamaster and cannot decide between these 2. I seriously can’t decide. I do have a black watch in the collection already but not a blue. Despite that I’m still as equally leaning towards the black because it’s just more versatile plus you get the applied logo and markers. What would you do?

BB58 to GMT

Temporary strap on until the proper ones arrive. White dial Pepsi is growing on me a lot. The movement is incredible!

My Daily Since 2022

My first luxury watch & daily piece since July of 2022. Still absolutely love this watch! Wore it in the hospital during the birth of our first son in 2024. A lifetime piece for me!

Is an Omega x Swatch a good watch for a 13 year old?

I’m thinking of getting my son an Omega x Swatch for his 13th birthday. I’m wondering if it’s an appropriate watch for a young man and if it would be durable enough.

The only slight hitch is his mother has fully enforced alienation protocols and we have not really spoken in almost a decade. It’s been sporadic and extremely strained.

It’s a bit of a peace offering as well as hopefully something we can maybe reconnect over.

As much as I’d love to go and get him a fully fledged Omega, I do not think that’s appropriate till he’s 21, as that is following a bit of a family tradition where a Swiss watch is the 21st gift.

I just want to get him something nice, memorable and maybe even if he won’t use it now he may in the future.

When it comes to maintaining them, how hard is it? Are batteries easily changed? Can you swap a band yourself or do you need to take it to a store?

What mission? I’m thinking the Moon, Mercury or even Earth
