Omega Seamaster METAS accuracy issue
Co-axial - a myth or a real deal.

Maybe it’s because I started my watch collecting fairly late, but I keep my collection small (4 pieces with 2 free spots for the future) and therefore all my watches feel special to me. I like’em all and wear regularly, but if I was to pick one, this has to be Seamaster 70th anniversary edition.
There are no options, only trade-offs. Explorer looks modern but keeps vintage size, Tudor is slightly bigger but keeps original Explorer/Ranger esthetics. Ranger is a proper tool watch with modern specs, essentially what Rolex used to be 50-60 years ago. Explorer is way more dressy with only remote connections to it’s tool watch heritage.
Tudor is for you to enjoy , Rolex is for others to notice. Rolex will attract bad guys, Tudor not so much.
Buy what you like and like what you bought.
Vintage Rolex are wonderful, this chronograph - absolute gem! Partially this is why I prefer modern Tudors over modern Rolex. 1016 is one of my favorites.
Wonderful watch, looks great on your pictures. Congratulations!
I've tried it on few weeks ago, but since I got several watches in last 6 months, my wife made me promise I'll pause for at least half a year... Well, women.... 😉
Interesting feature of this watch is a GMT hour jumping every 30min. Super convenient if you happen to collaborate with people in halt-hour time zones like India.
This is 2018 limited edition for 70th anniversary of Seamaster line. Master Chronometer, co-axial etc. all enclosed in 38mm case with very close resemblance to first Seamasters for 1950's. It took me almost a year to find a new piece in Omega ADs across Europe.
