Yes!
(Although I prefer a 3 hander TBH)

Medium duo for me - I want that watch myself.I’m in the process of buying my first rectangle watch - reverso classic duo. Likely to go for the medium over the large. Love it.

There's only one thing worse than a rectangular watch IMHO. That's a rectangular watch with a California dial, and/or a green dial.

Yay!

This is the shape I am angling for.
This along with the Explorer1 and the Freccione would be enough for me.

I think it is just perfect.
It’s the serial number of the megaquartz module/movement within.
Matching serial number…still running & still extremely accurate after 45 years.
The movement is rectangular too..

An article from Playboy December 1975 has the Marine Chronometer at $1850. The same year retail price for a 5513 Submariner was $355, a 1019 Milgauss was $370 and a 6263 Cosmograph was $500. According to the inflation calculator, $1850 in 1975 would be $9560 today.
Indeed. You could buy 6 Omega Speedmasters for the same price as one OMC. They’re cheaper than a single Speedy now. The danger is if the megaquartz module fails. There’s not many spare ones left & I believe they’re around £1000 for the module. Spare modules are already 45 years old & just as likely to fail the next day as any other. It’s one of my favourite watches & probably attracts more comments than any other in my collection.An article from Playboy December 1975 has the Marine Chronometer at $1850.

P.s. great advert from Playboy, I hadn’t seen that one before.

Ones I owned were bought for restoration and sold, but had some Omega T17's, Longines 9L's and one IWC
Had the pleasure of holding this one in person a number of years ago. No idea on why Lange canceled it

Certina Certiday from 1970.
I've always liked the Eterna 1935 rectangular watches
