    Lefty Reps: how do they feel?

    If picking between an Omega and a Rolex leftie, I’d definitely choose the Rolex. I like how the brand thinks of left-handed people. I don’t see the same approach in Omega and the above-mentioned Ploprof is a confirmation. It’s nonsense to build such a bold crown rounded by a bolder lug. As for...

    scam ain't disappeared

    Personally know people that paid for reps and didn't get neither the rep, nor the refund. it was painful and hurt a lot. We sat with that person and began digesting all that had happened and analyzing what possibilities he had. We concluded that he didn’t check the veracity of the dealer, the...

    with 95% similarity of reps, would u still opt for a gen?

    that's a tricky questions indeed 😂😂😂 to speak seriously, I think there is one puzzle element lacking in the main question: money. if we talk about the scenario when I have plenty of money and the price for a gen doesn't change much in my whole budget, then I'd go for a gen, forgetting about...

    traditional watches or smartwatches?

    I bought an Apple Watch when these were only first released. the hype around them made me curious about them and I tried one. these are functional indeed, but later on I realized that I wasn't using even half of the multitude of features and services it provided. so, I was using it maybe at 40%...

    800$ for a Daytona rep: is it a reasonable price?

    I did see reps of about 1000$. I was also reticent about such prices and looked kinda strange to the buddy that paid that money. but lemme tell you the I was amazed by the craftsmanship indeed. great finishing, accurate movement, precise time-keeping. it might be worth, but be prudent where you...

    genuine Omega 007: how sought-after?

    these are sought-after, don't have doubts about it. it's just people owning them, reps or gens, don't show them off exposedly. I dont know hoy you wear your watches. if you like to show them off, you might be interpreted as a guy addicted to James Bond character. or, if you have it just for your...

    PP 5070: what's so special about it?!

    Being inspired by a vintage model, the big bezel completely makes sense. It’s clear that today’s generation can’ make abstractions from what they are used to. When the former model appeared, it was the number one watch to have. The big size wasn’t a regular phenomenon, and this was what was...
