What is the price?
Also, I do like the Omega Seamaster, a lot. But not as much as I like the SPEEDMASTER.. You sure you don't want to save a little more and buy what is universally considered to be one of the most classic watches of all times, The Omega Speedmaster. - The Seamaster while pleasing, just doesn't have the long term persona that the Speedy has in my opinion.
If someone were to ask me, what are the two most well recognized, universally appreciated and all around best sport watches for value and longevity, without hesitation I would answer:
1) The Rolex Submariner
2) The Omega Speedmaster
They can both be dressed up or dressed down. Just a thought.

I agree on all points. The MSRP is $1295 but it's "on sale" for $350 or so. That was one of the main things that worried me a little. If you can get a watch that deeply discounted, surely it won't hold any value in the long term. I hadn't heard of the manufacturer either, but I knew if there was a place where people could give me advice on whether it's a go - it would be here
.
I also love the Speedmaster, and because I am saving for it, I very well may wait for the Speedmaster. I currently have a $100 Invicta which, although was inexpensive, looks relatively nice for daily wear. It may not be a bad idea to continue wearing what I have, keep the Movada to save for more formal occassions, and just keep saving for the Omega!
