I have a chance to buy one of these two watches
Both are in the 300 range . Omega is a tad cheaper .
The bulova has not been serviced but is working .the Omega is fully serviced but don't know much about this style
Which should I go with

The Omega appears to win on:
- looks
- price
- providence
- name
- legibility

I'm an Omega fan, however, that Accutron is nice.

I think it depends on what you're buying these for. If I were buying one to wear, I'd buy the Omega. If I were buying one to look at a movement, I'd buy the Accutron, but I wouldn't wear it.

Looking to wear now and then.

Then my vote goes to the Omega. If the all gold color irks you, then you can switch out the straps for a brown leather strap and it'll probably look quite handsome.

yes and the bulova is only around 33mm
do you think the gold on the omega will last awhile on it ?
plus i would think the omega would hold value

Between these two exact watches, I think the Bulova is much more interesting.
