A question I have been giving more thought to lately as I reduce the numbers and I consider what will be the last one standing ?
The decision has been made so yes it has to be my favourite,

Thank you everyone for sharing your favorites !
Mine is 311.92 Dsotm
Why? Well I always loved speedmasters. Being an astronomy fan didn't help. But when the DSOTM came out I fell in love with it. Moght be the ceramic and the 9300 is wonderful too.
That's why I got it for my twentieth birthday this year.

If we're including watches we'd like to own, my absolute #1 would be the Mitsukoshi Speedmaster (I could end my watch collecting right there)... but with only 300 genuine ones in existence combined with massive demand, I'll never have an opportunity to get my hands on one. So my realistic favorite is the 3510.21 Marui. Reason? Panda!

My fave is my one-and-only (so far). The Globemaster 8900 caliber. I love the 39mm diameter, which fits my narrow wrist perfectly, the deep blue dial with 18kt solid Sedna gold bezel and the solid stainless steel case(virtually scratch resistant). My first-but not my last-Omega™ . I love the lightweight combined with the leather alligator dark navy blue band, the clasp, everything about it. More importantly, I love where I bought it. An authorized Omega™ Boutique and the four year warranty. I could go on and on. It's so rich looking-but not gaudy. I wishOmega made more 39mm. Next watch: a 38.5mm Good Planet Titanium with Ti band 8500 caliber.

I've always wanted a Bond Seamaster, but have always gotten sidetracked and ended with a PO XL, Speedy, Seamaster Chrono, Electric Blue, DSOTM, PO 8500 42mm, 300MCA, and now... 300SMPc.

I could give an answer to why I wanted each particular model at one point or another in my life. BUT..... I don't seem to have an answer as to why I haven't gotten the one watch I've always wanted. Hopefully this changes in the near future, but for now here's my latest in all her glory.

Ed White's 105.003. I can honestly say I'd prefer owning it to having the lost Aldrin Speedmaster. An incredible piece of human history.

With a Speedmaster moonwatch already "in the bank" the SM300 would be the one I'd buy out of both vintage and the current lineup.

I'm not sure I can choose just one. I got into Omega because my dad wore a cushion case Constellation in the early 1970s (he still has it), and I have a modern SMP Diver and SM300. I love them both, and I'm saving for a Moonwatch. Addicted ...

I've not changed my mind since first replying to this thread. I still like the '50s Constellation variants best of all. Lots of fabulous Constellations just within that decade.



A "speedy" Constellation doing 75 mph.

I only own two Omegas (only one of them is currently wearable), so my favorite has to be my Constellation. I love the elegance and timelessness of the watches, and, of course, the accuracy of them.

Since you called dibs on the other--can I have the Aldrin speedy? 😁

I have three...

On the left is a Charlie. 19 year old tokay gecko I raised from an egg.

In the middle is the Watchco Seamaster 300.

On the right is my 20-year old Speedmaster with customized hands.

All are wonderful.
