Omega Watches?

Ugh... sorry, but I can't stand it. I think it's horrible, and the price makes it much worse in my opinion.

And I can't imagine you making this thread if you didn't get a new watch or you didn't get a watch at such a price.

I have this watch. It's simple. I like it.

fair enough, but its not all about looks, my watch will last me all my life and the mechanism is amazing.
 
This Swiss made Citizen watch, which I have proudly owned for two decades, was sat on by a 280 lb Egyptian en route from Aswan to Cairo on a train seat in 1990. It still works to this day, unike the Sony Walkman and prescription glasses that faired less well.

I've had mine for a few years. It'll probably break in a few more. It has a ten year warranty. If it breaks after that I'll just buy another one. I think it'd work out much cheaper than yours.

Well my watch has a lifetime warranty so I have nothing to worry about, I can pass this watch down my family.

Very nice Citzen :D
 
I have a Seiko, one of the kinetic ones where it winds as you walk. I can leave it sitting for 2 years, shake it up and it sets itself back to perfect time (I never wear it). I have always been perplexed by this, it blows me away how it can know the time. I swear it even compensates for daylight savings time. Can anyone tell me how it can sit unwound for years and reset itself when I shake it?

Yes my dad has a few Seiko's they are beautiful the mechanism is the best, and they are cheap as chips (well for a watch)
 
I had a pint of Guiness on my 21st. birthday. Unfortunately, not too many pubs in the U.S. serve english pints. What are they thinking?

"Sorry, those 4 extra ounces are expensive." LOL!
 
I have a Citizen Eco-Drive that my ex got me for my birthday last year. It's scratched to hell already which makes me wonder how you could live with having an expensive watch.

I never wear it anymore anyways. I spend 90% of my day in front of a computer and I can't stand having it on my wrist while I'm typing. That, and the computer has a clock. ;-)

Most times I walked into bars in the US and asked for a pint the bar staff would titter. Except of course Irish bars.

A new Omega Speedmaster Legend, eh? Well, I can out brag you, kid.
My mommy and daddy just bought me a new Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet, just for taking out the garbage! So there!
P.S. And the gearshift knob's got a 20 carat perfect cut DeBeers diamond set into it!
P.P.S. And in the glove box, is a matched pair of custom made platinum plated Beretta automatic pistols with my name in 24 carat gold, which I'm free to use to blow my friggin' brains out if I scratch my new Porsche 911 Carerra Cabriolet!
Bet ya can't beat THAT, ya smart ass kid!:rolleyes:
Oh, by the way, I'm wearing an 8 year old Timex watch.
(takes a licking and comes back ticking)
