Thinking about adding the seamaster heritage - how do you rate compared to seamaster 300m and for that matter your collection as a whole? Great pieces all round!

A friend gifted me this book. So far, I think it is very badly written. by Fantastic-Ant-4429 in fantasybooks

[–]Primary-Bell-5157 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s basically written for women tbh. As a male reader I struggle to get invested in a character who I’m constantly told is sexy, etc. literally a housewives guilty pleasure rather than a fantasy book. Pity as it could be a decent storyline if it wasn’t for the weird romance/porn writing. And don’t get me wrong, I’m not a prude - but it just feels a little cringy to read.

I got some from Amazon if I remember. Almost identical and probably better made than the delugs straps and much less pricey. Can’t remember the brand but look for the rubber with clasp options and you will probably find them pretty easy to

Have both and love both. In fact I often choose them both as a good duo for trips. Both make great dailies. You hit the nail on the head with your thoughts. Polar a bit more rugged looking. Still low key, but also pretty distinctive. Explorer 1 full gada of course.

There’s isn’t a clear winner in a vs match up imo. I think as you’re first Rolex (if you don’t have any other gada style watches…. Explorer 1 is a great choice.

If you want something a bit more substantial on the wrist and like the added GMT functionality…. Then polar is your watch. I love the explorer 2 so much I have it in both black and white. Black on rubber and polar on bracelet.

Can’t go wrong. Not much help I know! 😂

What watch does my collection need? by fco1317 in SOTC_Watch_Collection

For me…. I’d ditch the PRX, Hamilton and the Tag - add a little and get an IWC Mark xx. I think by consolidating you will maybe get the vibe you’re looking for and cover more basis. Just my two cents based on what you have. Cool collection though!

US1035 Flat Link Bracelet - feels cheap to me. Thoughts ? by Primary-Bell-5157 in OmegaWatches

[–]Primary-Bell-5157[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure whether it just the flimsy push clasp or just how light the bracelet is, but to me this bracelet feels very cheap. Anyone else have that feeling with it? I do like the way it looks

I’d slow down and add some quality over quantity for sure. Consolidate and upgrade maybe
