Its my birthday, this is what i got from my SO, an Buddha to Buddha aquatic explorer chrono with a rotating compass bezel. I've been eying this model for awhile, so was absolutely thrilled when I got it.

Beautiful!! Cartier's aren't my personal style, but I sure do appreciate them!!

I'm thinking I might sell my Hamiltion Jazzmaster soon. Part of me feels like I should hold onto it, since it was my first automatic watch, and really my first watch that got me into the hobby, plus I've gone out of my way to try and wear it for some memorable events to make it mean something. I don't know,
It's just not doing it for me anymore. I could sell it for an SKX with a little leftover to start toward my speedy fund! Hmm...decisions. I probably won't go out of my way to sell it for cash, but if the right trade comes around, it might have to go. At the end of the day, It's not worth a life changing amount of money, and many years from now I might appreciate holding onto it.

  What is going on here?  Because it has an orange bezel and black dial it's a 'rip off'?  Then I guess Omega ripped off Elgin and others by that logic.  
 
Orange on the bezel isn't an 'Omega thing': they were not the first to do it.  Orange is used on many dive watches for visibility at depths where light is greatly reduced. Doxa made this most famous in the 1980's- which also pre-dates the Planet Ocean.  
 
Just because two watches have similarities does not mean one is ripping off the other.  Is a Patek 5170 a rip off of Longines Cal. 13.33Z because they are both bi-compax manual chronos?  I don't think so.  Are all wrist watches a rip off of a Reine de Naples?  Nope.
 
Wonderful watches, and enjoy them.


Forgive me BFP, just repeating what was said to me the last time I posted the Casio out here

IMHO as I told them then I don't think the Casio looks anything like the Omega other than they have orange on the dials! I'm going to sit with my nose in the corner for two hours now
