I love divers and I love blue! So naturally I love blue steel divers, but my dilemma is what is the better buy the new tudor black bay 58 in blue or the classic Omega 300m 2551.80 the bond watch.
I am generally finding the omega to be cheaper but all used so with some scratches etc, but can get the Tudor for almost double new. I have no doubt the Tudor is the better watch because you can find it new and probably won’t need a service etc. The omega is a classic, I love both the tudor more but I almost feel if I don’t get the omega soon it might get harder to find ones in half decent condition for a reasonable price but the Tudor I can still save up and maybe buy in the future?
What are your thoughts, which is the superior watch and what gets your pick ?

 

You’re not really comparing apples to apples. If you compare the Tudor to Omega’s new SMPc with the caliber 8800 master chronometer, it’s no contest. The Omega is superior.

 

Just to be picky that’s blue and steel, not blue steel. Blue steel is something else altogether. Steel that has been heated just right to attain the color. The hands on this pocket movement watch are blue steel.

 

Both are great watches! I LOVE my 2531.80 but the new tudors are also amazing. Tough decision

 

I mean 2531.80
