Owner Review: Omega Speedmaster MK40
If you asked me what I think about the Omega Speedmaster MK40, I would tell you it is an extremely nice watch. It wears comfortably on the wrist, goes well with many outfits, and is a very low key watch. It’s got a lot of quirky functions that make it a very unique -and colorful-…

Owner Review: Omega Speedmaster CK2915-3
There is little written about the Omega Speedmaster CK2915-3 transitional. Being a transitional pre-moon model, it not noticed by some but revered by true Omega fans. You see, the “-3” meaning it was the 3rd version of the CK2915 & it was released sometime between 1958-1959. After 1959, the CK2998 arrived. According to what’s available…

Owner Review: Omega Constellation Globemaster
I have always loved watches but only in the last few years have I become very serious about the hobby. As my interest grew, so too did my collection, as at its height, I had a grouping of 15 watches. Today, I only have three, with one being mechanical and worn regularly. That piece is…

Owner Review: Omega Speedmaster Mark 2 Racing
Those familiar with Speedmaster history would agree that the “moon watch” is almost more famous than the mission itself; to watch geeks anyway. But, the Speedmaster is more than a one-trick pony. Sporting a cushion case, chequered minute tracks and a multitude of colours, this 1970s Omega Speedmaster Mark 2 Racing retains the speedy layout,…

Owner Review: Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo-Soyuz
I have been collecting watches for almost 20 years now and by the time the Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo-Soyuz was announced in 2010, I was only focused on vintage watches but it became my first modern Speedy to mark an important personal achievement. This LE commemorated the 35th anniversary of the rendezvous of Apollo and…

Owner Review: Omega Speedmaster Racing Co-axial
I was always captivated by Omega as a brand, and the Speedy going to the moon. The Moonwatch professional is a little too big for my small wrist and to be honest, as much as I like the watch, personally I appreciate an automatic movement on for daily use. So as I was choosing the…

Owner Review: Omega Speedmaster Ultraman Speedy Tuesday
I should preface this particular watch review with one very important admission: despite being an avid watch collector for a number of years with a fair number of pieces occupying my safe both past and present, I have never owned an Omega before. I don’t mean an Omega Speedmaster, I mean that I have never…

Owner Review: Omega Speedmaster Sapphire Sandwich
I’m a sucker for chronographs … there I said it. It kinda feels good to say it out loud. There’s just something about a mechanical chronograph that I find really appealing. To me a chronograph is a precision instrument, it is an object that is purpose built to mean business … or maybe it’s just…

Owner Review: Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch
“Flight qualified by NASA for all space missions, the first watch worn on the moon” is inscribed on the back of this chronograph and immediately every watch enthusiast knows what you are talking about. As a very young child my Mother got me out of my little bed to watch the Moon landing on television…

Owner Review: Omega Seamaster 300m Ceramic
Not many watches, or product lines in general, have the ability to maintain relevance over the course of 25+ years. Times change, styles fade, and people get bored. But with the help of James Bond and some savvy advertising, the Omega Seamaster 300m has cemented itself in the minds of watch enthusiasts and Bond fans…

That dial is just fntastic.
Very cool watch. I have always wondered about the bronze models. Is the caseback bronze as well? If so do…
