Owner review: Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional
The Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Professional is a legend, an icon, and one of the greatest watches of all time. The reason I was so enamored with the Speedmaster was because, as a kid, I was seeing the watch in the local Omega AD and learning about the whole history and the “first watch worn on…

Owner review: Omega Seamaster Professional 300m
Long before I was a degenerate watch collector I relished in hanging out with my friends after school. This was the late 90’s and as such our after school activities, before being shuffled off to our respective houses meant doing one thing, playing the Nintendo 64. Two games stood head and shoulders above the rest…

Owner review: Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch 321
The thought that every watch enthusiast should experience a Speedmaster ignited my quest for the “perfect Speedy.” The countless hours spent researching and obsessing over minute details such as long indices, applied logos, and symmetrical cases shortlisted my options to a “pre-professional” Speedmaster.

However, there is one version that defined what some would call the most stylish generation: The Omega Constellation Pie Pan 168.005.

Owner review: Omega Seamaster 300 America’s Cup Chronograph
The Omega Seamaster line never interested me until the release of this Omega Seamaster 300 America’s Cup Chronograph edition. This model had me surprised with a lot of firsts from Omega; from the one-click quick bracelet/strap change to the chrono-lock function. But what really got me is that red count-down ring that features an hour…

Owner Review: Omega x Swatch MoonSwatch
There’s not much more to be said about the Omega x Swatch MoonSwatch that hasn’t been said already by every man and his best friend… However, what I will attempt to explain is how I went to being bashful and skeptical of the watch to growing fond of it. Allow me to tell you about…
