I did this because I used this picture on a watch forum as well. Unscrupulous people scour watch forums and use your pictures in their fake e-bay auctions. If they don't have a valid editon # it makes it harder for them to sell their fakes.

Very nice. I like Omega out of the big brands. Their manufactury really looks like one with smoke stacks and all. It's more centralized to one compound than Breitling or Rolex is and the use the grey and red accents through out. The bus stop in front is named "Omega" too. Our shop is down the street from Omega.

you know, it was hard for me to decide between the two. I think the major difference is the bezel/dial color configuration as well as the pugs being different.

Also, the Legende is 1mm larger than the World correct?

Awesome thread...I'm a huge watch fan. I really got into watches about 3 years ago when my best friend bought me my first Seiko automatic. I bought an Omega Speedmaster 3572 a few months ago. I just love it..




The Seiko that start it all :


I sold these watches..I really miss the the Seiko007. The Steinhart was nearly 47mm...

both are goregeous watches, and both can be had for roughly the same price, I would probably choose the Omega, for no other reason because I have an Omega Seamaster Professional Chronograph and I absolutely love it. However Tags are great as well.
