What say ye? Rolex and Omega, in a word.

I say this owning both of both...

When driving my M5 I wear my Gold Seamaster 300
When driving my E Class I wear my no date Submariner

The BMW & Omega gives me a feeling of high tech, innovative, dynamic, top quality, high-depreciation
The Benz & Rolex gives me a feeling of established, nothing left to prove, robust, everyone else is just noise...high quality, timeless

Rolex: Submariner
Omega: Moonwatch

By what each wants us to love them for...

Rolex: Two-Tone
Omega: Fauxtina

I guess a lot of members here don't know about watches...😗

The trick with this is wearing the watch. And not just one with the "aged lume" ( It's only a color !!! winky emoji, blah blah ), but any watch that's not doing it for you 100% of the time.
I'm not a collector, as such, but I have a few watches. I've been stricken with the "which one to take on vacation" dilemma a couple of times.
About a year ago, I opted to take my orange PO 2500 on the road for a week. I knew I was going to do some diving, and the poor little fella hadn't been getting a lot of wrist time because of the new Diver 300 and my MC.
When the PO became my only watch for that period, I forgot about everything but the capability and reliability. I was just my watch. Every time I looked at it, it got better and better. That mythical "one watch" territory. I didn't think about pairing it like a wine or any of that stuff. When the week was up, I didn't want to take it off. It had become not a watch I own, but MY watch.
I think you'd find, if you like everything else about a watch except the lume, if you'd give it some heavy wrist time, you'd forget about it. It would just be the watch. Your watch.
And, of course, I don't mean to be preaching to you in particular. That's just my thoughts on the subject in general.
Nice derail?
