The Twins, Am I out of my mind?

Hey everyone

I took a short step back from the Omega world and regretfully sold off all my Omega watches. 2531.80, SMP Black ceramic, AT Golf. I am the kind of person who is always after something different. After the big sale, I purchased Rolex. After a few months of running a Submariner No Date Ceramic, I felt it really wasn't for me and I missed my Omegas

I was lucky to come across 2 great pieces in almost perfect condition. Without any James Bond stigma attached, I absolutely love the classic Blue Bond watches. Pre 2500 co-axial movement or Ceramic models although they are great too. There is just something about this design and color that I can't stay away from. Its also my dream watch since I was 10 years old.
I purchased a Mint 2531.80 and 2541.80.
Why 2 of the same watch? I like the quartz as a pick up and go watch that I'm not scared to beat around a bit. The Automatic is just a collectors piece that ill someday pass down.
Is it silly? This is not the end of my watch fetish by any means, but for now....




Cheers

Nice work. I like it. I have a Quartz and am hunting around for an automatic as well. Bottom line, you can never have too many Omega's.

I have the same watch in both Quartz and ceramic Co-Ax... My favourite watch design for many of the same reasons you mention.

Good work!

Your rationale in purchasing both the quartz and auto is sound. Good looking watches!

Welcome back

Good choices. I like the Blue wave quartz (have one), but if it had been me I might have gone for a newer ceramic Seamaster Pro or a Planet Ocean 2500 as my automatic, to mix things up a little.
