I just picked this up the other day. I have been wearing my father's Omega Geneve '73 ST366.0833 and Constellation '60 OT14393 for several years after he passed away, but now I finally have my own, after years and years of lusting after one. It's quite a satisfying feeling to finally get your hands on something you've wanted since you were a kid. What makes it even more special is that it's the last of the (semi) affordable traditional automatic Seamaster dive watches in the lineage of the old Seamaster 300. Omega is sending its entire line upscale to compete with Rolex, and the prices are moving into the Rolex range. After this year, these will be no more. All the Seamasters (with the exceptions of the quartz models, of course) are going Co-Axial.

I've gotta ask, how does everyone STORE their watches? Ive got some in boxes all over the place, and my Bulova lives on a headphone stand with my HD25-1

Classic watch. You can't go wrong with a Seamaster or a Speedy. Very nice.

I just picked up a Seamaster with a blue face, I love it though it is running quite fast. I am heading to Europe in just over 24 hrs so I might look at a used Rolex GMT-Master or Submariner.

Current watch. Not bad for $97 imo.

My ideal watch would be this but replace the rosegold with copper and the "croc-embossed" leather with real croc leather, and get rid of the 12&6.

It was, but I didn't know it was. It was marked for $155, but when the saleswomen rang it up, it came out to be less. But that still wouldn't be bad.
I guess Skagen's are known for their good "bang for your buck"

I'm not really a watch enthusiast. I just thought that this watch I got when I signed up for a club membership looks pretty good, so I thought I'd share.

They're lots of great watches in this thread, but almost none of them are in my price range.
