Today is constellation day… a love hate relationship
The life of a serial watch collector can have it’s funny moments, take for instance this omega constellation in rose gold. I saw it, I loved it, I bought it, I took it home and then I hated it. I didn’t wear it for a few months and then suddenly it came out of the box again and now it gets some wrist time at least once a week. Now I truly love it again. It’s an odd world

My grandfather was a watchmaker and Rolex dealer after WW2 and as a child I spent many hours watching him and his watchmakers repairing and servicing watches, I can still smell the cleaning fluid. He...

It's eye catching to say the least. The gold and blue are a great combo...but there's the roman numerals on the case/bezel. Interesting.

Yes, that also caught my eye when I first saw it, for me the rose gold claws and blue dial did it for me, the strap is alligator but they have lined the inside with rubber so it doesn’t spoil so quickky
It's definitely not "middle of the road"
I'm glad you love it again.
That's a lot of watch to hate!
Haha I feel you 😀
I still haven't decided what I think about these Constellations. Sometimes I like them, sometimes I don't 😬
I think it comes down to the overall outfit, and what you're going for.
If I choose a watch with a blue dial, I like to pair it with blue jeans, or maybe with blue jacket with chinos and blue shoes.
In your case, I can imagine white shirt, khaki trousers, and blue suede penny loafers.
I've been wanting one of these for a long time. So underrated! I can't seem to find one used though.

I think people hold onto them

Something like that, my dive watches normally fit with my usual attire of shorts and t-shirts, I live in a tropical climate year round.
Dream watch right there 🔥🔥🔥
