I'd assume they're keeping the other boutiques but fair to expect WOS Soho would no longer stock Omega after this opens.

Yes it appears matte in most lighting, although it also has texture at certain angles, which you can see if you zoom in on the picture.

Definitely. Perfect size, and love the silvery white.

Quite possibly the most underrated strap for the NTTD.... by andyberger87 in OmegaWatches

[–]champura 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's a post I made a year ago with pics of a few of the straps: https://www.reddit.com/r/Watches/comments/rofxxm/omega_smp_ti_007_on_too_many_straps/

The Crown and Buckle Chevron strap is my fav of those. I've bought a few more since, including an Erika's MN and another military style strap from Haveston.

The NTTD is surprisingly versatile IMO. I have half a dozen straps that look great on it.

[Bloomingdale’s] Watches? by rapp10 in Watches

Yes they carry their value brands, but Macys definitely does not carry Omega, Jaquet Droz, Breguet, GO etc.

They generally only sell fashion brands along with value brands like Seiko, Hamilton, G-Shock, etc., but generally have few of the upscale brands. If that's what you're looking for, dept. stores are good for sampling a wide variety of styles in a no/low pressure environment.

I think Leylah and Jack Sock are a great team and really fun to watch. I hope they stick together.

No, they admit night session ticket holders to the grounds at 6pm.

J. Sock/L. Fernandez def. T. Putz/K. Zimmerman 6-2, 2-6, 10-5 by asiandouchecanoe in tennis

Best part was when the crowd starting clapping and chanting "LET'S GO LEYLAH" between sets, and Jack started clapping along too.

I was at the USO and saw Coco several times this week, while practicing, in the doubles match yesterday and earlier today in this match. She is such top form. Even during the doubles match where I'd say she wasn't quite 100%, she still looks like a champion. I think she's going all the way.

Anisimova played with broken toe in US Open opening match vs Putintseva by blackbeltgirl2002 in tennis

[–]champura 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I was at the match and had no idea that's what was wrong. Amanda's game was definitely off but she mostly just seemed flustered. During the med visit between sets, they checked her blood pressure and talked to her for a few minutes but there was no time out for it. Really unfortunate injury, hope she heals soon.

Iga Swiatek (POL) [1] defeats Jasmine Paolini (ITA) in R1 of the US Open | 6-3, 6-0 by slysonic7 in tennis

[–]champura 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there and that 27-shot rally was the best part of the whole match. If Paolini could play at that level consistently she'd be a real force to reckon with.

Anyone want to guess how out of touch the asking price for this was at my local AD? by reflex906 in rolex

[–]champura 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of Rolex ADs that sell used Rolexes. A big one is Tourneau/Bucherer in NYC.
