Owner Review: Omega Speedmaster Mark 40 Triple Calendar

When speaking of Omega, the Speedmaster line needs no introduction. The moonwatch gets all the spotlight but the Omega Speedmaster Mark 40 Triple Calendar 3820.53 in some people’s opinion is the ugliest design ever created by Omega. Calling the MK40 “ugly” might be a bit harsh though, it could certainly be described as colorful, bold…

Watch brands and sport have a long historical bond, and one of the most recognisable is Omega and the Olympics. Omega seem to release countless limited editions to tie into various events or historical moments…

Owner Review: Omega Speedmaster First Omega In Space

Let me get started by saying that the original Ed White Speedmaster (105.003) is my grail watch. I am a vintage Speedmaster purist but this watch had me converted to the modern reissue gang pretty quickly. This straight lug case and simpler dial were such big selling points. Until Omega CEO Ray Ray comes to…

Owner Review: Omega Dynamic III 5250.50

The Omega Dynamic III 5250.50 is the third and last generation of the Dynamics family. However it is anything but a facelift of the previous elliptical and angled case shaped watches with removable case rings. The design is inspired by Omega’s contribution to the “Dirty Dozen” – WWII watches commissioned by the British MoD. A…

Owner Review: Omega Planet Ocean Chronograph Sedna Gold

Omega Planet Ocean Chronograph Sedna Gold, what a beautiful and powerful word combination. Just like the watch itself. It catches the eye. It’s big. It’s robust, yet refined. It’s sporty, yet classy. And it withstands 600 metres of bone crushing water pressure. Not that I ever go anywhere near that kind of depth, I am…

Owner Review: Omega Seamaster Railmaster

As a kid my teachers asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wanted to be a train driver. They taught me train drivers are called engineers. With my latest promotion there could only be one watch to join my growing collection. A watch that is described as the forgotten brother…

Preferably something a bit more vintage and if at all possible without the hefty price tag that usually goes along with that. Know the feeling?

Owner Review: Omega Seamaster 300M ‘Great White’ GMT 2538.20.00

Like a lot of other men my age, I was introduced to watches by Pierce Brosnan and the Goldeneye Bond movie. The thought of having a laser beam on our wrists and travelling the world to exotic locations with beautiful women left a permanent mark. Of course back in the real world, the Omega Seamaster…
