Bruh, the new OP41's take the cake as the tackiest Rolex watches, IMO. They're beyond "trendy try hard" to me. At least the deep blue complements the gold really nicely on the Submariner (it does scream "90's day trader" though).

They've done this before. Look up Rolex Stella dials or Rolex Daytona beach. Minds you, both of those were on gold models, so not anywhere as inexpensive as the OP41.

Interesting. Aside from the Maroon and Navy faces, they're just as horrific.

I’m going to disagree on this one. I hate the watch & bracelet combo, but I like the watch in combination with a band

damnit I need to go try **** on at some ADs.

Aquis was in my head then saw some used Omegas for some good prices. Speedy seems to be the reduced but still like it. Thoughts on which would make a better two watch combo with my Aqua Terra?

That looks nice. I might get a black band for my black and gold two tone submariner. What's the best brand of band for a Rolex? I see Everest when I look them up.

Yeah check out Rubber B, i got one when I bought my explorer, good quality and fitting straps. Quite expensive for a bit of rubber but couldn't fault it



I got it with the watch, woulda chose the full orange one otherwise

Same here bro. I just picked this up (don’t let my poor photography and hairy arm deter you from buying it lol)




I prefer Omega, but the Oris sixty Five is nice too. I just have a history with this watch. My first mechanical watch was a seiko 5 that was an homage of this exact watch. Then, I added a rectangular Omega Deville manual-wind to my collection. Eventually, I purchased an Omega Seamaster quartz, pre-aquaterra. It has basically the same bracelet of the bond watch, just a different clasp. And it was the most comfortable bracelet I had ever worn. I eventually sold it and finally got the bond watch yesterday.

nice. love Seamasters although like the older Bond models and yours way better than the new ones. The newer SMPc looks amazing in pictures but i tried one on when it was between it and my current AT and just was not crazy about it.

where did you buy it from?

I went to the watch store today and this omega really caught my eye. Really nice deep blue with orange details, it looked really good in person. Does this posting seem legit to you brahs? $6200 seems reasonable

https://www.chrono24.com/omega/seama...id13253717.htm




I also really like this breitling superocean heritage which is half the price and has a beautiful blue have any of you brahs seen these watches before?

Whats the problem? Good seller, market price, transaction guaranteed from C24.
This one is brand new: https://www.chrono24.com/omega/seama...id13628662.htm

Good looking out brah. I might get this one (srs) it really captivated me in person when looking at all the watches. I went in hoping to see the superocean heritage in blue (which was also really good looking) but I love the blue and orange color combo and detailing on the omega

What do you brahs think of this

https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/OMEGA-Se...dd87%7Ciid%3A1


How important are papers/box to you if you don't plan on ever selling it? This is legit over 2k less than other ones I've seen on chrono

I’m not the most clued up on the Omega market atm but I’d want to know what year the watch is and if it has any service history (factor in the possible cost of a service). Also it sounds like it’s head only as the strap isn’t OEM, once again don’t know much about this model if it usually comes on a bracelet or strap.

It all depends on your budget but for me Id pay the premium for a full set, and if you find one locally most dealers will budge on price

Just purchased the Ruber B band for my two tone sub. Really think it'll allow me to give it some more wear. It's not quite as "blingy" with the band.



Might also get the brown leather Omega strap for my aqua terra next time I'm near a Boutique.

Mirin. That looks really slick srs. Reminds me of the gold yachtmaster. Only way I could wear it is on the black rubber for my personal flashiness tolerance level
