    Hello everyone!
    I have my first 2 Omega's and am wondering what I should get next? In my current collection; SMPcr, SMP GMT, Tag Heuer Aquaracer Chronograph, Oris Aquis, Rado d-star chronograph, Victorinox Alnpach chronograph, Helson Blackbeard, Seiko monster.

    May I suggest Moon watches as your next step. I started with the same two you have and found the Speedy Moons to be wonderful. Be careful though, once you start it's hard to stop.

    Excellent suggestion! I definitely want to add something in the speedmaster line, just so many variations!

    There are some great sources on the forum for Speedy Moon watches. I have grabbed quite a few here.
    BTW, I notice you are in SoCal. I live in the San Fernando Valley and work over the hill. If you are nearby we can always meet and talk watches over lunch.

    Hard to believe that any one on this Forum would suggest a Speedmaster :p

    I've looked at them but it's a little too dressy for me, wouldn't get wrist time in a regular rotation.

    Gorgeous piece, but I would only wear it on special occasions a few times a year.

    Everyone is wrong, you should go for a speedmaster instead. An honest 3570.50

    Also, a nice vintage dress watch could fit your collection for those days that you need to wear a suit.[​IMG]

    +1 for the vintage Omega suggestion. So many options - pie-pan, jumbo cased, SDV etc.

    Okay here is the plan: Buy speedmaster moonwatch 3570.50 (they just come out with very nice box), then a Speedmaster Caliber 321 , then a Speedmaster your birthyear, then two or three Speedmaster Limited Edition (hmm Panda 35th and blue Gemini are the favorites here) then one or two Speedmaster 2998 variation, then ultimately Speedmaster 2915 !!!! :p
