Hi Guys,
This is my first post here on Omega forums and I would like to thank the community for a lovely source of information.
I have a Rolex no date sub ref. 114060 since 2015 and is looking for my next watch. I am kind of a purist and love classic design.
I find this tread very interesting since I have a similar dilemma. I have the opportunity to purchase the Omega Speedmaster 60th anniversary model at my local AD and was thrilled about it in the beginning but have started to have second thoughts. My dilemma is, should I get the 60th or just go for a new regular Speedmaster professional.
This is in my toughts the Speedmaster 60th
Pros
Classic design
Slim case
Faithful re-edition to the CK 2915
Nice bracelet
Cons
Vintage luminova
Grayish tropical dail
Smaller case size
My biggest concern is the case size, I would not like the watch to look to small, and then there is the tropical dial. I find it very hard to get an idea of how the dail actually looks. In some images it looks fairly black, but in some it looks almost greyish.
In the long run I would like to extend my collection to maybe 3–4 watches and only have one per brand. With that in consideration would it be better to go with the regular speedy or would my future collection be more interesting with the speedy 60th. A future collection could look like this:
Rolex no date sub, Omega speedmaster 60th and Patek Phillipe Natilus
Rolex no date sub, Omega speedmaster 60th, Patek Phillipe Natilus, Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and
I would love to hear your thoughts.
