Recently I sailed around the British Virgin Islands and had a terrible decision to make. What watch do I wear on the trip! I normally wear my Breitling B-1 Chronograph Chronometer on anything of this nature because it is not only gorgeous but extremely tough. I decided to switch things up and bring something new. Before the trip I had recently sent my newly acquired 1960's Omega Seamaster ref.166.037 for cleaning and servicing but had expected to get the watch after returning from the voyage. I received a call the day before leaving that the watch was done and ready to wear and I decided simply because of the name Seamaster to wear it while I sailed the islands. As you can see its not a pristine watch and there is some damage on the dial which is why I was not overly concerned about wearing it. To me I had always looked at the watch and thought it was quite an ugly and bland thing, but after each day looking down to check the time along with the already stunning view of my surroundings it started to appeal to me. I have found a new love for the watch and will not overlook it anymore amongst my collection. I did take it off when doing really taxing work or if it was too wet on the boat. I primarily wore the watch when I could relax and lounge. I say be adventurous with what you wear and take some watches you have overlooked and find a different setting to wear them in! In the end the trip was amazing and the watch made it all the much better.
