Appreciate the reply. At first, I thought I wanted the Super Racing because of the new technology used in the movement. While I do have interest in it still, I'm leaning hard toward the Heritage. "Classy" wasn't the first word that came to my mind when I saw it, but it fits. It feels more refined. There's a local jeweler that has one that I'm going to check out this week to get an in-person feel for it.
For a special occasion and special watch my vote always goes to the Speedmaster Professional - maybe even a neo vintage or vintage model.
Omega obviously has many great choices, so you can’t go wrong. For the dive watches I personally land on older Rolex or Blancpain. Sorry.
The heritage of the Speedy is hard to beat. Hesalite of course, closed back. Great watch for day to day use. Doesn’t wear big really. I’d stay clear of the assorted variations that are bigger and busier.
Thanks for that. I've got a 3861 hesalite moonwatch. Wearing it today. 😀
I took the plunge and this beauty just showed up on my doorstep. I could not be happier. It's gorgeous! I got it for $5800 OTD which I think is a great deal given the increases this week.
Happy 50th, great choice! Looking forward to seeing it in the "Show us your Seamaster" thread!
Congratulations-
