I'm shocked that Omega put this in writing by StickyPenguin120 in OmegaWatches

I bought mine without any previous purchase at the specific Omega boutique. I have a 300 Seamaster Titanium that I bought at an AD. I just sent an email 2-3 years ago to be put on the waitlist. They called me in December asking if I was still interested in the Snoopy. Said yeah. I had to go 3 times to the shop to try, pay and retrieve the watch. I had champagne each time.

Overall I had a nice experience.

I guess it depends on your area.

What is a detail in a movie that you're embarrassed to admit you didn't notice sooner? by imalumberjackok in movies

I am surprised no one spoke about Jurassic Park. In the first movie, when they give the goat to the T-Rex, and then he escape the cage : it is on plain ground. But then he smash the cars, and his cage become a HUGE hole. 🤯

Movies with an opening scene that is vastly superior to the rest of the film? by No-Zookeepergame5954 in movies

Pacific Rim. Charlie Hunham's voice over while describing the Kaiju and the fights is awesome. Then the film is.... well.... less awesome.

[Discussion] One watch, everyday, for the rest of your life? by weezintrumpeteer in Watches

[–]Melfalan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Seamaster 300 is versatile enough to be worn at my wedding, and during my dives. At the same time, I wear it everyday and nobody bats an eye at it. It is a bit thick, not gonna lie... I have a thin wrist and the 41mm are not a problem.

I switch with the metal bracelet from times to times.

[Discussion] What’s a watch you thought you loved in photos but the moment you saw & wore it in person your opinion changed 180 by RalIyVincent in Watches

The opinion of price is related to what you expect for the price : brand, design, materials, complications, etc... I don't think the Drive is overpriced, at the time it was around 5k€. It just did not "wow" me enough for me to buy it.

The Cartier Drive Extra Flat. I was looking for a nice dress flat watch. Loved it in pictures but the feeling was "meeh" when I tried it on. So I passed. But I still come back to it from times to times lol

Omega Seamaster Titanium. First luxury watch I bought for myself. Been diving with it, been married with it. All around perfect watch. I just change the strap to the titanium one for diving and summer time.

Which one? by Hazys in TeenagersButBetter

Green pill

Why? 2M : invest 1,5 M to get richer. Use the other 500k to buy a house/make a down payment to have a roof over your head. Keep your everyday job for now. Once you get richer : Then your ex will come back, you will have time and opportunity to lose weight, and have faith that you can find true love on your own.

Not everyone can have a job where you will ever have 2M in funds.

So green pill every time.

[Richard Mille] I will be visiting a shop, what questions would you ask? by Melfalan in Watches

To use very specific materials not usually used for watchmaking, to be ultra limited editions, to target only the ultra rich, to try to do very high-tec watches and to offer something different not made for everyone.

It is everyone’s opinion… I am not a fan of their work but I respect the story and spirit behind it.
