I like some of the aesthetics of the Omega offerings, but the arrowhead hands turn me off.

Also, I've recently done some internet research regarding the reliability of several of the Omega movements and they seem to have had a reliability problem a few years back.

I don't know to what extent Omega has resolved this.

I think of Rolex as the standard of reliability to which all other watch manufacturers aspire.

If I ran Omega, I'd reissue the pre-moon Speedmaster with the 321 movement and a 10 atmosphere water-resistance rating as a realistic alternative to the Daytona.

Until then, Rolex for me.
