I have always seen the Dynamic as a nearly but that crown sticking out like a gun turret at 3. You would need to move that around maybe up or down.
Also it’s not a small crown, you would get stuck up on tree branches with that beast.

And anyway, the Swatch Group already has the pretty good Hamilton Khaki range (fairly big crowns and all) and perhaps introducing an Omega field watch, probably at several times the retail price of the Hamiltons, would be hard to justify 🤔

For the Seamaster, bring back the big crown Seamaster 60
For Speedmaster, anything with a " 60 seconds " bezel ... 🧐

I want to be happy with just one watch. I’ve got a friend who has a 90s era Seamaster (quartz) that he bought new and has been happily wearing every day for 30 years. Every time I see him, I’m jealous how he can be happy with just one watch.

Of course, in the same time he has owned about 8 different cars and I’ve had 3, so there is that.

The funny thing is got my 2351.80 used for $1250 and was my one daily driver 20+ years. (could've picked up a good condition Rolex for $3000 which I still kick myself for)

Decided I needed a change so I tried the new Seamasters and other brands, but kept comparing them to mine. Found a few strap changes brought new life to it and an appreciation on how good of a design it is. That and a few Speedies later, no desire for a new chunky Seamaster which looks like it hit the buffet a few too many times. Seems like each release they get bigger or maybe my wrist is shrinking.

I agree, I’m always switching straps for exactly the same reasons.

As the title suggests.

What do you want.

A thinner PO.
A Rolex store with Rolex’s.
A big date without the date.

Get it off your chest in this thread.

I want a Omega field watch in Camo Green Matt dial, brushed case. Fieldmaster
Me too!

And a Globemaster with twisted lugs

What do I want? I want a lover who doesn't drive me crazy!

Solid casebacks with great designs like they used to have. They were interesting and added something to the back of the watch. The Summer Blue release caseback is a gorgeous design. And the bonus is it reduces the thickness of the watch.

And not a fan of the chunky case design unless it's a tool watch. But let's be honest, a real tool watch wouldn't have ceramic bezels and be shiny. It would have a matte finish, aluminum bezel, and dinged to hell. Guess that's why I have stuck with my Bond SMP from the 90s. Has been through everything and still keeps on ticking. And any watchmaker can service it in a reasonable of time.

Just realized I'm starting to sound like the "get off my lawn guy" 🤔🤣

But still serious on the solid casebacks.

Speedmaster-wise... What do You really want for 2025 ?
Top 3

3. Well maybe a reverse Panda with " radial dial " subdials
2. Option for an extra bezel, be it practical "60 seconds or Pulsations" or even a colored (red or blue) bezel option
1. By 2032 ... 75 years Speedmaster, a full detailed history ?
