·Hi OF
TL : DR
On Fridays, I want a smaller weekend watch with minimal fuss which means no date. For Omega is Watchco my only option? For the last four years most of my wrist time is with a Grand Seiko Snowflake and a Lange One during the week and a Seiko SRP777 Turtle for the weekend.
LONGER
Question 1: Will a watchco no date meet my needs? Basically, a used watch that I won’t baby and keep for 5-10 years or forever. I don’t want to go over 12.5mm thickness which is what I have now with the Grand Seiko.
Question 2: Are there any other no date Omega Seamasters? It looks like a 300M 2254 fits the bill except for the date.
Question 3: How does the watchco compare to some other watches I am researching that might work. The examples I have come up with have a better Power Reserve, but that’s about all I saw in terms of advantages
Tudor Black Bay 58
Size: 39mm diameter, 12.5mm thickness, 20mm lugs
Movement: COSC 70 hour PR
Price: secondary 3000-4000 USD
Nomos Ahoi Neomatik
Size: 36mm diameter, 9.6mm thickness, 18mm lugs
Movement: in house automatic, 42 hour PR
Price: secondary 2500 USD
Fifty Fathoms Bathyscape (yeah that H site)
Size: 38mm, 11mm thickness, 20mm lugs
Movement: in house, 100 hour PR
Price: maybe 9-10k USD
Thanks OF and looking forward to everyone’s thoughts
