If you would have only ONE Omega-watch—what would it be?

One of these two, the day they will do it at 41mm, max 42 diameter, max 14 mm thick. If not, still go with my PO 8500 42MM.

I wish Omega would do a PO with these dimensions. I tried on the 39.5 PO and didn't like it. The watch didn't sit right and looked off on my wrist. The 43.5 was too big and unwearable for me.

I own a few Omega watches that are more desirable from a collectability point of view, but if compelled to own just one it'd be this one: a plain 'ol Hesalite Speedmaster, made in the 21st century.



There is some irony here, because when I first became "wristwatch aware" I had no taste for the Speedmaster at all and found the level interest in it among watch aficionados to be inexplicable and more than a bit silly.

Snoopy, no question. Credit the internet for the pic, I still don’t own an Omega, but will very soon (not the snoopy, unfortunately).

Speedmaster Professional. It'd have to come down to either the 68 transitional, today's standard Moonwatch, or the hypothetical steel 3861 (assuming it's NASA flight qualified).

Same here, thats why I just got the new SMP diver 300.
Let's hope to see some "thinner" PO's coming up in the next caliber generation.

On condition that I have other watches (none Omegas) for daily use I for sure would go for a vintage Speedy Pro. The most iconic watch ever imho. Which one will be dependent on your budget but preferably one of the references used by NASA

If it is one watch, then I would say Omega Aqua Terra 8800 38mm black dial, but if it is one Omega watch, I would say either classic 1861 Speedy Moonwatch or Snoopy Speedy if money is not a problem
