Hello all, I’ve been a big Omega fan since the late 90’s (mainly from being a Bond fan and seeing his watches from a Rolex to an Omega). My issue is I don’t own any yet. It hasn’t been till recently that my wife and I are making a comfortable salary where I’m in the position to purchase one. I plan on purchasing one as a retirement gift to myself or earlier in the next 2 years. I’m in law enforcement so the good side is I can retire early, I just CAN NOT wear it at work, that’s why I have my quartz Fossil. So now it’s just research and narrow it down to a want list of Seamaster or Speedmaster. I’m definitely going the pre owned route and have been searching the listing of Watch finder and Chrono24. Quick question, I’ve seen people reference OF as a site, what is it short for? I’m 100% confident it’s not Only Fans lol Jon
OF is indeed OnlyFans. Not many people know this, but it’s actually got some great wrist action. Aside from that, welcome and congratulations on the impending retirement!
OF stands for omegaforums; should be the place for you if you are an omega fan. There are also plenty of omega's for sale in the sale section, typically second hand. Perhaps you'll be able to find your watch there.
There's a few LEO's here, some of us retired and enjoying life. Welcome to OF. Look forward to seeing pics of your 1st Omega.
Welcome. OF is a good place to learn about watches and a safe place to buy and sell. I think your quest needs further refinement: late model or vintage? It really depends on how hard you will use the piece. Note that while it called Omega Forums, there are sub forums for other famous brands with a deep knowledge base and most of us are not exclusive collectors. Don’t hesitate to come here for advice before you buy. The search function works well.
Welcome to the forum Jon! Hope you're able to find a good one when you're ready to purchase and as said by other members there is a bunch of great information on here regarding many brands as well as pre-owned omega knowledge. Happy searching!
