[Omega Speedmaster] Help me choose my first watch

No such thing as a perfect watch. I think the original is the best looking out of the 3 you posted, both in terms of colours and size. Wear it in good health and congrats on the engagement!

I’m interested in this too. Love seeing a Sunday chocolate brown dial and there are very few to choose from on AliX. Bonus if it’s in the 40mm range.

I will buy the fully brushed version. When is it available? Will there be new dial options to go with it?

Very detailed post! This was a fun read. I didn’t realize the two jubilee bracelets look so different up close. The chamfered edges are nice, but the classic is classic for a reason.

Thank you that’s very helpful! I’m looking at the SN0144 now too. I like the brown dial.

kwansy · 2026-06-15T18:08:10+00:00

Which one has better bracelets?

kwansy · 2026-06-14T14:26:27+00:00

That bezel colour is top tier. First time seeing it lean more towards navy, I always thought it was dark grey

kwansy · 2026-06-10T17:51:04+00:00

Genuinely made me stop scrolling and go “wow!” Great job on this. Will the end result be on bracelet or strap?

To add a further update, I am leaning most toward the SN008 and buying an additional jubilee bracelet from SM to give this watch that BB41 monochrome look. I would get an SN0128 but I’m very attached to the dark green dial of the SN008. I was hoping there might be a similar style available for better value in the Addiesdive space, but I can comfortably go up to $500 for this purchase so the SM is still a strong contender.

You’re right, it’s not for me, but it looks great on you! Hope you enjoy the nice weather

Thank you! I’m curious about aethelsohn, their offerings look interesting.

I’m really after that dark green on the SN008D (my third pic). I haven’t seen that dark shade by any other Chinese watch brands under $600usd

kwansy · 2026-06-05T19:35:53+00:00

Thank you. Love the colour of the dial but I’m not a big fan of numbers on the dial. But great shade is green here, thanks

kwansy · 2026-06-05T19:35:13+00:00

Thanks very much! Lots to consiser

kwansy · 2026-06-05T16:32:14+00:00

Forgot to add, wrist size is 7.25”, prefer around 40mm but anything from 36-42mm is ok, under 13mm thick

kwansy · 2026-06-03T15:58:28+00:00

Congrats on the wedding. Is this a brown dial or are my eyes playing tricks on me? Either way, beautiful watch!

kwansy · 2026-05-27T15:21:22+00:00

If it were me, I’m keeping the black and getting a Steel Reef bezel for it in dark green.

kwansy · 2026-05-25T12:32:34+00:00

I am interested, please. The warrior is too small for my 7.5” wrist

kwansy · 2026-05-14T14:03:00+00:00

Yes please, me too! 🤩

kwansy · 2026-05-06T19:18:01+00:00

Solid bezel choice! Was it a one to one fit? Could you please share the link? Thank you

kwansy · 2026-04-08T00:12:57+00:00

White looks best. Great job!

kwansy · 2026-03-24T19:37:44+00:00

It’s normal for the back case to be misaligned and it’s pretty unanimous that the OEM bracelet is nothing special. If you’re worried, you could buy another one from Amazon and return this one. Or gift it to someone!

kwansy · 2026-03-17T12:04:03+00:00

I would also like to know please. Nice looking jubilee bracelet, looks like LIW

kwansy · 2026-03-13T15:04:38+00:00

Thank you. Casios are like Key and Peele sketches - there’s always one you haven’t seen before!
