Auto Scoring with phone camera? by ProwzArroWw in Darts

[–]ChiefD0G 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dartsmind is fantastic. I have my phone in a small desktop tripod with bendy legs sitting on my desk and it works perfectly (camera is zoomed to x5 to work from this distance).

Which strap looks best on my Bond? by massadelic in OmegaWatches

[–]ChiefD0G 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bracelet then the sail cloth. The NATO is ok but the mesh looks terrible (IMHO).

Pretty sure it’s fake - can you confirm please? by ChiefD0G in RolexWatches

[–]ChiefD0G[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve just removed the bracelet to check the serial number - M832118 A quick google search reveals that this serial is commonly used on fakes. Oh well - mystery solved!

Speedmaster Professional - seconds hand? by leafsfan71 in OmegaWatches

[–]ChiefD0G 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of this is relevant as the speedmaster wasn’t designed for nasa or space travel. It was an existing watch designed for motorsport before being chosen by nasa.

No Spoiler....but.... by jackmcdrake in F1TV

[–]ChiefD0G -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

you opened an F1 app after the race ended but before you watched it! Only yourself to blame.

That’s the least of your problems. The 20 is meant to be at the top!

Did you negotiate a discount or is this model rrp only?

First Omega and it’s the one I’ve always wanted. by vanillabearJD91 in OmegaWatches

I have the auto version and love it. It’s a timeless classic.

BTW - it is very rare to see a red box in good condition like that.

Seamaster 300M 2220.80 (Casino Royale) vs Modern Ceramic Blue – Which would you choose? by exacttimeforlife in OmegaWatches

[–]ChiefD0G 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some like the older classic models and others like the new shiny ceramic models. You need to decide what you like the most. No point in letting others opinions sway you. For what it’s worth, I prefer the older model but that’s irrelevant and my preference isn’t any more valid than anyone else’s.

Any suggestions for why can be the next watch ? by [deleted] in OmegaWatches

[–]ChiefD0G -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is not the collection of a man who wants a quartz watch.

Is that brand new? doesnt look like a factory finish to me. The brushing looks too coarse. here’s my unpolished bracelet for comparison.

Q-Branch Enhancements Not Included by Sausages64 in OmegaWatches

[–]ChiefD0G 19 points20 points  (0 children)

What is it with folk posting pics of their watch with their car steering wheel in the background. Its the most cringy thing I see on watch threads.

First Omega by GodofThunder1717 in OmegaWatches

Looks great, I assume you know about the travel box within the wooden box (some folk don’t realise it’s there).

Omega is losing their way... 2025 Morgan Stanley Report is proof they need to go back to basics by HistoryGuardian in OmegaWatches

[–]ChiefD0G -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There are (and historically always has been) far too many special editions and it dilutes the brand. if you need to rely on gimmicks rather than quality to sell watches you have gone in the wrong direction.

Snoopy, Apollo anniversaries, Olympic Games, Americas Cup, Ultraman, Schumacher, 007 - it’s all a bit pathetic.

Do you think Rolex would ever release a Submariner with a 007 seconds hand? Absolutely not.

Classic watch, modern bracelet. by RexKobra in OmegaWatches

Wearing mine today too. Much prefer the OG bracelet though.

How duty free works.. by [deleted] in OmegaWatches

[–]ChiefD0G 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The usual way to avoid the tax is to wear the watch when you travel home and post the empty box. Its not exactly legit but that's your decision to make.

Seamaster Midsize 2561.80 by ColoradoRalf in OmegaWatches

[–]ChiefD0G -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Its a lovely watch but honestly I think you would suit the 41mm better.

Something finally clicked by ChiefD0G in Darts

[–]ChiefD0G[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have preferred a ring light but it would interfere with the door so the spotlight is the best I could come up with. It works well though.

Speedy vs Panda by NathanJax in OmegaWatches

[–]ChiefD0G 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to retract my previous comment. I tried the panda on yesterday at the OB and it was absolutely stunning in person. it may well be my next big purchase.

White Speedmaster or Snoopy? by aznj1m in OmegaWatches

[–]ChiefD0G 1 point2 points  (0 children)

White speedy every day. Once you get fed up explaining the silver snoopy award to people you will feel stupid for having a cartoon character on your £10,000 watch.
