Lots to choose from, but gotta go with this. The 1947 tourbillon prototype for the Geneva Neuchatel and Kew-Teddington Observatory competitions:

The classic for me , but a modern one that can be worn daily without the worries of vintage .

I agree, it's one the few rally straps I've ever liked. This is similar looking, but I haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Edit - also found this one just now, for less:

I just got this band in black and it's very nice. I do like the thicker keeper on the one you posted though.

Railmaster 60th Anniversary Trilogy Edition. My first Railmaster was the 36mm 2504.52 with stainless steel bracelet. But I ended up selling it, and later regretting it. Almost impossible to find. Nevertheless, my mind was always on "What if Omega did a reissue or similar of the 1957 original Railmaster!?" I absolutely craved that watch, and had neither the funds nor the knowledge to get a vintage model. For a few years, I simply put it out of my mind. In 2017, when Omega announced the Trilogy series, I could not believe what I was seeing. For the very first time ever, a dream of mine actually came true. This is the one I would keep, if I was to have only one Omega. I love it on both the stainless steel bracelet, and the Omega leather strap which I came across at the Omega Boutique:



The Railmaster is such an iconic member of Omega history. The fact that it was first made actually for railroad use, and with antimagnetic properties, and now with the latest antimagnetic movement, is amazing tribute to the original alone. Not to mention the perfect replication in almost all details. Only the movement is updated and the crystal is sapphire instead of acrylic. Such a grand piece!

Cheers,
Carl
I feel the same way and frankly, I could’ve written that post word for word!...scary...ESP.

Pick only one eh...? Out of my collection of 8, I would go with My Z33. Just because it’s so much fun to wear...And is really functional and I love the red
Digital display. Besides the “What the hell is that Thing?” Factor.

This is an unexpected, but appreciated answer. Unique choice, and I’m glad someone loves this thing!

Hard to pick. Haven't yet met the right Speedy, and hard to choose between my three Seamaster children, whom I love equally.

But maybe I love the youngest child, my SM300 Trilogy, just that little bit more...

Give me this watch, replace it with a DON, and I’ll never ask for anything ever again. I know it’s not modern, but it’d be my choice for my only Omega ever.
Which speedy is that? Hadn’t seen that bezel before...
