Speedy Pro seems to me the most iconic of all Omega watches. If you can have only one, that is what I would choose. Let us know which you choose.
Cheers

I have a very modest collection in relation to others on this forum (my Rolex Explorer 1 214270), but after a lot of thought and research, I am going to buy the original Speedy Pro 3570.50.00 to add to as a weekend-wearer/chrono.

Tried on all the PO variants, but I want the original movement and history that goes with the Speedy Pro. I understand the attraction of the PO, but the thickness and the helium-valve extension really impact that watch, IMHO.

Aqua Terra lineup is very solid..but in my case the Explorer 1 won out.

I'm biased with the 2534.50/2234.50 GMT but I don't think an 8500 Aqua Terra would be a bad choice
