I just got a white dialed Rolex Datejust a couple of months ago. To the dismay of my wife, I'm thinking of adding another "nice" watch to my household. [Hey, I just turned 52, complex anyone...?] Anyway, I want a black dialed moonphase chrono. So, there is the Omega Speedmaster, or the Longines moonphase, costing about $1,500 less. Gotta get the Omega, right??

From one 52 year old to another, get the Speedy. No questions asked.

Sorta is a no-brainer, huh Larry?

Omega over Longines. Any day of the week.

Omega speedmaster! Becuase, its more than just another watch. Dont know way, it just is :)

Without a doubt, the Speedy Pro!

Call and talk with my AD. He carries both at substantial discounts. He will give you good counsel without any hard sell.

Get the Omega Speedmaster Moonphase for the best of both worlds.

It doesn't help with the cheaper aspect of the scenarios but still.

Tunacan26 · 31 August 2010, 09:54 AM

So true Welshwatchman -- But, just the other day I tried on the new all green Rolex Sub, and, whew....

We are all doomed.

Omega Speedy Pro 3570.50 > any Longines Chrono

ps - dont let people telling you that the 3570.50 is poor man's SS Daytona..... trust me, it is not

Tunacan26 · 1 September 2010, 12:25 AM

Actually eyeing the 3576.50, w/moonphase. Close enough.

Longines is good but nothing compares with a speedy
