Thread: Show us your Omega's.....

Hybrid View

  1. #1

    Show us your Omega's.....

    I thought I would take a picture of my current collection of Omega's before my Speedmaster Cal 1045 eventually finds a new home. I thought I'd found the perfect 4 for now but unfortunately the Cal 1045 bracelet won't adjust correctly to fit my wrist so its looking for a new home :( All is not lost though as I will hopefully be replacing it with.......you guessed it........another OMEGA!

    While taking the pictures, it occurred to me that I could start a topic along the lines of the 'Show us your....' threads but obviously for Omega instead, so here it is! I'm looking forward to seeing some interesting models that I haven't seen before and hopefully hearing a few stories along the way. It will hopefully give me some ideas for my next addition(s) too.

    Here are mine:

    All together


    Seamaster Professional Chronograph 2599.80.00



    Seamaster Professional Quartz 2542.80.00



    Speedmaster MKII Racing Dial 145.014



    Speedmaster Cal 1045 176.0012




    So come on guys show us your Omega's modern and vintage.....

    Just this one now!

    I have owned:
    Speedy Pro
    Seamaster Ceramic (blue)
    Planet Ocean 2500 (orange)

    This Titanium beaut is my favourite and so light for such a piece of chunk!

    My first mechanical watch, worn daily for many years and one of very few I’ll never sell.

    I decided to give it a new lease of life though. I’ve loved it on the bracelet and it looks like new, as does the rest of the watch, since a full Omega service last year.



    I fancied leather though. And my, what leather! A Dangerous9 custom strap in Teju and Sharkskin. Stupidly expensive, a ridiculously long wait and impossible to justify in any logical terms. I mean, no one will ever even see the blue! However, it feels amazing, looks awesome up close and just makes me happy.

    So, here’s to many more memories with my little, not the real deal, but very special (to me) Speedmaster!

    I've got a few Omegas. Including at least one that most people really don't like



    My grandfathers



    My late fathers 21st birthday present



    My bargain of the century blingy that I almost never wear, but it only cost me £200 for quite a chunk of gold.



    Speedy of course



    And the Marmite one that divides opinion. I liked the blue dial

    Can’t stand Marmite but I think that last one is great

    This is a forum watch bought from, and subsequently sold back on to here a couple of years, I hope it’s still around?

    Such a cool watch, was just a bit too mullered around the lugs for me to want to keep, but a bargain all the same...

    This caught my attention when it was announced almost five years, and never let it go.



    Those lugs look awkward and straight, but in reality they curve just the right amount:



    (having said that, my having quite a flat wrist probably helps)

    It's a lovely watch, I liked it when I saw pictures but for me it's just too big. I like the styling and the obvious retro vibe, but it needed to be significantly smaller for me to be interested. If it was 36mm and slimmer it would be v. appealing, but I always end up comparing watches like this to the vintage stuff at 34-35mm and the vintage always wins. My wrists are 6.75" and square, I can`t wear big watches and that rules a lot of modern stuff out.

    Here's my 1970 166.032, approx. 36.5mm so it's big for the era. Notice the similarity in the lugs! This one fits me nicely, ideal size for a watch in this style.

    Although "only" 39mm it is a big watch - definitely nothing retro about its presence on the wrist. I've had a 40.5mm Seiko as my daily the last 12 months, and this feels bigger - straight lugs add so much to a watch's presence, it's right at my limit. I used to think I could equally wear the white dial, but now I've got this, I realise that I couldn't.

    I thought it was 39mm, if it was 36 I’d probably own one, I really fancy another blue-dialled steel watch and this us a nice one.

    My first Omega is inbound, very excited to get to know the 2254. I bought my brother a Speedy and had the pleasure of wearing it for a month before his birthday....
