Coincidence this thread popped up. I won a Rolex GMT Master II in an online raffle yesterday. I'm. Over the ******* moon. Still giddy about it. Just got to work out what to do with it now.

Not a bloody clue what to pick there. I've looked at this like 10 times. Thinking of thr Breitling because of the blue face. I'd want a bitnof colour in my watch. Apart from that? Dunno. Tough one but two absolutely belting watches. I'm sure you'll love either.Originally posted by SimonMac View Post“Big” birthday next and I’ve come to the sad decision that my vintage omega is no longer reliable enough to wear, I don’t wear a watch everyday so it’s only an occasion wear.
Toying with keeping with Omega or moving to a Breitling, not a fan of steel bands so am toying between these two.

I think that you might regret the Nato strap. Cloth and skin oil is not a happy combination. Nice watch though.
I tend toward steel bracelets (Tag F1 Series 1 circa 1990'ish, Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Gen 1) for everyday and leather strap (Breitling TopTime Panda circa 1967) for dress wear.
Happy shopping.

The Bremont is quite nice.
In the end, due to lockdown, I've still not got one.
I quite like this:

These are totally different types of watches, the colour should not be that important. How about reading up on the technical construction of each watch.Originally posted by northernladuk View Post"A people that elect corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors are not victims, but accomplices," George OrwellComment
