    If the LeCoultre has an 881 or 883 that's tough to pass up. Otherwise the Omega.

    The Omega, those lugs are awesome, both straps need to go in the bin :p

    LeCoultre without a doubt.

    the Omega has a nice dial and I like the slightly bauhaus feel to it.

    Another vote for LeCoultre there :thumbsup:
    It would look great cleaned up on a new strap.

    Oooh, that's a tough decision.

    The LeCoultre is definitely the better watch. However, it would be a lot tougher to find another scarab lug Omega in that condition with an original band and buckle. You can always find another Master Mariner.

    It's nice to be in a position to make that call,

    I vote Omega, although since I have one of those, I may be partial.

    Like gator says, they're few and far between.

    Might go with the LC, the Omega is a cool watch but I'm not sure if I could see myself wearing it very often. I have to get another look at them!
