i can tell you with as much certainty as the sun will come up tomorrow that if i bought a steel daytona at retail tomorrow i could make a profit on Tuesday.

omega is shit buddy the brand is propped up on nothing but marketing. the only notoriety is from celebrity endorsements (see: james bond movies), and ""going to the moon"". I guess you don't want to mention how the backup watch was a pos bulova, which also passed those eXtrEme!! testing standards, or how the ""certified space watch"" literally failed in space as the crystal popped out the phukin watch. rolex has actual chops, they are:

1. the first watch to earn a chronometer certification
2. the first functioning waterproof watch (speedy hasn't done that yet to date)
3. the first automatic winding watch
4. the first watch with a phukin date function
5.first watch with a gmt function
6. AND first watch with a day and date function

everybody knows rolex. so much in fact that the most replicated watch in the world is rolex watches. ask any joe schmoe on the street to think of a "watch" and they will likely think of a datejust.

omega simply cannot compete at this level, it's a phuking scam of a company, riding on the coattails of superior luxury watch brands

How did you not realize this before purchasing them? The only sub-5k watches you should have are:

- G-Shock
- quartz shitter that looks similar to your real watch so you can wear it if you're doing some dangerous shit or going into a dangerous country while maintaining the same style
- atomic clock with an alarm so you can set your other watches to it

“It went to the moon” yes so did a lot of other junky tech. It was a tool not some holy grail. Was reliable, functional and cheap. The fact that both you and the omega marketing team herald it as some godly thing falls apart when other watches with similar ‘legacies’ are sneered at. Grow the fuck up.

Here’s the big difference between the two (Daytona and speedmaster) one of them holds value enough to be investment grade, one of them is cheap and cheerful. Which is great but it’s basically like buying a lightly used BMW 328i and suddenly thinking your a motoring fan. Grow up mantlet

Meanwhile Daytona owners can walk around with something actually worth something in the real world. Something they can attribute value to and the market outside fanboys can realize has worth.

this looks great, very similar to my weekender. i expected it to be around $100-300 and i was surprised to see it's priced around $2,000. looks very similar to my weekender, i think. if i was just at the bar on a date or with friends, i think nobody would ever notice one from the other. only way someone would notice is if they looked at it from a foot away, and then it would be obvious they're staring at my watch. that's never once happened.

so, i like the watch, but i'm left thinking, what's the point? i'd rather use the $1,000 to spend on travel with girls or something like that.

what counts as a shitter? is it based exclusively on how much you pay, or is it based on the quality and appearance of the watch? like why should i care what is inside the watch, so long as it tells the time, lasts a lifetime, and looks good?
