    Hypothetically, and God forbid, you’re limited to two, and only two, watches - one for dress and one for sports/everyday wear. Your choices would be? I’ll start.

    Dress: Omega Constellation Globemaster, blue dial, SS bracelet
    Sports: Omega SMPc, black dial, SS bracelet

    Dress: '67 Speedy or #PCA Speedy

    Sport: Tintin Speedy

    Planet Ocean could perform double-duty if you were limited to one (i.e., going out of town and don't want to bring more than one watch)

    Same with the Globemaster, at least on the bracelet. With the alligator strap, it’s definitely dress only.

    And bought the Seamaster two weeks ago for everyday. Absolutely sorted now IMO.

    Could you wear this casually too? Some of these Omega "formal" watches I think look great with just a polo shirt. I know I know, wear what you want....

    Dress I’d say the omega museum number 10

    Sports I’d say the 50th anniversary now

    Funnily enough the seamaster 1948 could do both for me now

    I actually do have a two-watch collection, and it fits into the categories of a dress watch and a sports watch. I like that one has a white dial, and one a black. They are both 20mm lug widths, so I can share straps between them. I also like the unifying factor of both of them having a moon phase.

    My choices would be the A Lange Söhne Cabaret for the dress piece 20190531_225001.jpg
    and for the sports watch, what better than the classic BB58? vqar7e9a2ed11.jpg

    Allegiance to Omega isn’t required. Two nice picks, by the way.

    Love the Patek but cannot fathom how the subdials work, apart from the date. What else is being measured? What are 1,2.3,4 in the month dial and what are 12,18,24,6 in the day dial? It's beautiful yet baffling...
