watches
in collection
I'm fond of all these watches. And if money wasn't a limiting factor, I would happily own all of them.
Alas, my money printer is broken, so I had to vote in accordance with how I spent my actual money, and I have a SMP300 that I wear regularly.
I will say that I'm beginning to research a 2003-era Aqua Terra, though....
Easy - the Aqua Terra, not even close for me. The best GADA watch, or watch period, IMO.
Vintage, no doubt. 1950s-60s Omegas were the peak of Genta's designs in my opinion.
2254.50 for me hands down
(picture from Fratello)
600m needed for when I go swimming 😜
Would still like a 2254 and PO .
Just not a fan of the USN diver spec round indices of the SMP, too imprecise and too generic - to me spikey indices are more "Omegary" 😆👍🏼
My vote;
I love the Aqua Terra. But the SM 300 Heritage just speaks to me. Such a beautiful piece.
Out of the options, railmaster, the new sm helium valve look like frankenstein's thing with its screws misaligned.
More fond of the Omega Seamasters than I believed possible, I own a SMP, as well as a Seamaster 300 Heritage but intend to pick up a Planet Ocean soon but have never connected with AT. Depending on how kind the Fates treat me might source a AT Worldtimer but they wear huge even for a guy who loves big watches.
The OG - 165.024 https://www.chrono24.com/omega/ref-165024.htm#gref
Not that I'll ever be able to afford any of them, but the SM300 Heritage
Except for the Heritage I’ve owned/own them all and the SMP 300 isnt quite in the same league (pun intended) as the PO (43, 42, or 39.5) in my opinion. Aqua Terra, meh. For me it’ll be the PO by a mile, then the SMP 300.
2531.80 hands down!
SMP300 all day long.
Planet Ocean!
B or D. Why? For me, I love the Arabic numerals.
I have a couple of 45.5mm Planet Oceans. I love the big hunks!
I’m biased!!!
Aqua Terra is next.
