There are many, but I want to mention a few that have always caught my attention unlike other watches in the omega catalogue. The first is the Alaska project speedmaster. It’s truly a think of stark Beauty. It’s form over function while also increasing legibility to a degree that you don’t typically see in speedmasters

The next one is the Ranchero. Purely based off as the tics, I absolutely love this watch and wish they revived the line. The lay out of the entire dial paired with my favorite handset on any watch: The broad arrow/ dauphine combo. It’s something that simply works.

Finally we have omega Seamaster 300 166.024 and related dial layouts. The sword hands simply work and this is a another example of a no frills watch that does it’s job. Inc act it did it’s job so we’ll it gave rise to most jther military design.

I have the WatchCo “remake” and it’s truly a stunning watch. Perfectly balanced with no excess

It’s simply a stunning movement and definitely a sleeper at a glance

It’s interesting to me because I also face the same dilemma: too many black dial divers. But I thinks there’s a certain beauty to facing an issue of this sort in the hobby that we’ve all fallen into. I believe it’s time for self reflection. I’ll try to detail my thought process in this particular situation best as I can. For me, this was an opportunity to ask myself what each of these watches means to me when taken as a piece of a whole. What I mean by this is that when we’re generally scrolling through Instagram, or any other compilation of watchc images, we’re looking at individual watches that jump out at us and evoke an emotion. Even though we might consider it alongside our collection, we ca. ily do so theoretically. It’s only when the watch that our desires have pushed us to “pull the trigger” on arrives does the actual process start. The way it feels, the way it wears, and that indescribable “it” feeling which keeps that watch strapped to your wrist longer than others can we truly begin to h dertand it’s place. At this point each person differs imho: some are flippers, others are sentimental, but all of us are irrational. To me, I want my time ounces to serve a function and fill a gap but I also want each of them to get wear. I’ve gotten to a post where I have 14 watches and I’d be lying if I said that I wear them all. But there are irrational reasons I can’t let go of the ones I don’t wear! At this point for me, I have to take all g hard look at what I truly want and make a decision and jump. Decision paralysis is a very real thing in this hobby and all of us, to Selma degree or another, have financial limits. But even more than that, I think we all want to enjoy what we have in our collections to the fullest extent. Often times I think of those patinaed watches that people desire, and we tend to forget that the reason that those watches have Pacino is not because they were made of suboptimal materials, it is because they were worn. They were worn a lot, in fact. I’m now veering towards quality over quantity and want to own pieces which I love for a variety of reasons, and I can make memories with.

There’s something about those green dial khakis from back in the day which just does it for me
