Plain and simple. You buy this watch and you exit the game. For me it’s be a NOS 321 professional case from mid-late 60s.

I’ll never find one so I won’t be exiting anytime soon.

 

Don't think the watch is made that would cause me to say I'll exit the game. There's always a home for wayward watches here.

My grail watch, Omega or otherwise is an Omega Centenary such as this one, nicely photographed for a Fratello article.

Maybe a handmade watch? Supposedly you can get one from a Swiss manufacturer for around $40k, same price as the previous Snoopy.
Sorry for the non-Omega answer.

 

Too hard to choose. Better to be like a pharaoh and go to the grave with them all.

 

My last Omega would be moonshine gold apollo xi. Hope to get one next year.

 

I reject your premise

But to play along, I second the Speedmaster Moonshine as my exit watch.

Coincidentally, I would also be exiting my mortgage and my marriage with that purchase.

 

An actual Speedy worn on the lunar surface.

 

Up until a few days ago it was the Globemaster two tone with a blue dial. Now I am thinking about the new Speedy with Snoopy (if I am able to find one).

 

Buzz Aldrin’s Speedmaster

 

A reissue of this one.

 

I agree on this one but I don't see I will ever push the button on one. I would also like a lange söhne 1 …. but on a bracelet … and I have just never seen a combination that works (for me) for that :0(

 

I think it's a no-brainer for this to be the second generation of the SM300 MC, whenever Omega gets around to an update. I'll buy it again if they do that.

 

For me it was my vintage Speedmaster

And then it was was a 321 Speedmaster
And then it was a classic Seamaster PO
And then it was a beautiful blue dial Globemaster
And finally it is the vintage Constellation. And now I'm done.


So anyone got a line on a nice vintage Mark II?

 

The solid gold Flightmaster

 

A watch that omega makes for me personally. A 1 off, spec-ed by me.

It would most likely be a rose gold base 1000 2 register chronograph meets cosmic triple in 39mm, ivory, possibly salmon dial on a warm brown leather strap

It will never happen so luckily I can keep collecting

 

On another thread you'll see my Omega list. The last watch I bought was a 166.010 Seamaster. It will likely be my last unless something like a Speedsonic or LED comes up not horrendously overpriced like you see on eBay.

 

I have thought this over many times but never an Omega edition.

Personally, if I get a snoopy 3, my exit Omega would be the snoopy 1 Eyes on the Stars. At least that would mark by exit from Omega but not from all watches. I would be very content with these Omegas and then just admiring rest of the Omega catalogue and it’s fine timepieces from the sidelines knowing nothing else would tempt me to return.

 

I admit if I ever "win the lottery" I'd get something in solid red gold out of the current catalog.

 

As much as I like the Omega Speedmaster 2998 ( 2998-2/6) with alpha hands and lollipop or tear drop chronograph hand it is more than I want to spend and I have a preference for the twisted lugs over the straight lugs, so realistically, my exit Omega would be a pristine original 105.012-66 CB case to pair with my HF version.
