Cant say about 2.3.4 or 5, but for me personally it would be the silver snoopy 45th anniv edition. That's the watch that draws me to Omega brand.

When you say "modern," do you mean 2000 and afterwards? What's the cut-off year?

Speedmaster #1 all year. After that it is pretty much a matter of taste and preferences.

Pretty cool how often the CK2998 has been mentioned given that it's a relatively new release. It's a great watch for sure

Too hard to determine order....but top 5 that comes to mind for me:

1) Planet Ocean LM 2500 movement
2) Speedmaster Professional (Hesalite/solid caseback moonwatch)
3) Mitsukoshi Speedy
4) Apollo Soyuz Speedy (this one has really grown on me lately)
5) Any older Seamaster with waves.....not that new printed wave on some Seamasters that looks awful.

I'm a little surprised there's been no mention of the Railmaster. That is a really cool piece.
