Welcome to SRP. The Omega Speedmaster is a nice watch.

Anyone see the new watch Hublot came out with? It's the most expensive watch ever produced. It's 5 million and just covered with diamonds including the bracelet. They have a picture of it over at Timezone.

I wonder how much an extra link costs.

I like some hublot watches, but not a fan of jewel incrusted ones.

Thank you! I absolutely adore my MK4.5 - it's turned into one of my "lifers."

The Speedy pro is one of those iconic watches you always here about. Probably, if you asked a watch person to name 10 must have watches in a collection it would be right in there.

I have as of last count 27 wrist and 4 pocket watches, over half of them I bought myself, Two of the pocket watches I got from my father-in-law (past back in May 2012) One of the pocket watches was my fathers collage watch and 10 of the wrist watches were hes including 4 Rolexs. He past on Sep 11 2007. Love the watches but I'd rather have both my Fathers back

The thing that's always drawn me to the Speedmaster, is that the "true" Speedmaster has changed very little over the last 60 years of production. For me though, Omega is my "one brand to rule them all....." until I can afford a JLC Memovox Polaris (:


As a more realistic pick-up, I think my next timepiece to be a Flightmaster, or a 165.024.... However, my RAD kicked in a couple days ago so it might be a little while.

Graduation present!

Congrats on the watch and the graduation! Looks awesome.
