Hey,
Hope everyone had a good weekend.
To mark a milestone in my career I’m looking to purchase my first Omega watch, I’ve always been interested in space so the moon watch seemed like the perfect fit. Unfortunately I was cursed with slim wrists (17cm // 6.7”) so I’m starting to think that the previous generation Pro with its large lug-to-lug would be a no go.
This means I’ve been considering either the Reduced or the Women’s 38mm version, that was until the most recent 2021 Pro launched at the start of the year, with the altered bracelet it would now possibly just be small enough for my wrist to accommodate it. The only issue with the new 2021 Pro is that there are none on the second hand market (and unlikely to be for some time) so I would have to go into debt to purchase the watch as I simply can’t afford it outright.
If you were in my position looking at the three options I have what would you recommend? Do I go for the smaller Reduced (is it a pain to service?), do I consider the women’s 38mm or do I look to get myself the 2021 Pro and bite the bullet so to speak?
Beyond that, are there any other options I’m not aware of, any pitfalls or known issues with any of the watches I’m currently considering, or any additional advice people would like to offer?
Finally, do prices for used currently seem high or is that just a UK thing with Brexit etc etc?
Thanks a lot,
