Omega or Tissot -- Which one?

Two beautiful watches to choose from and seems like you ended choosing the Tissot which is certainly the clever option here as it's more timelessly classic and can never go out of style.

I would probably have gone with the Omega, but I've always had a thing for that era of Omega with the funky angular cases. Still I would have probably have voted for the Tissot here as the better bet for longevity.

Yes, for me, the Omega is great for its early 70s vibe -- bellbottoms, wide ties, flowery shirts, muttonchop sideburns, lava lamps, etc. But the basic Tissot design is still in use today. Even many digital watches offer an analog display that looks a lot like it. It just says "watch".

You even got me buying another to restore. This is like the one I had.

The Seastar model was launched to the market in 1954. This one dates to 1958, still mounted to its signed bracelet that also dates to 1958:
