Gen Omega Speedmaster Date (first gen!)

Recommended Posts

ScotchSoda

Hi guys,

 

I haven't been on RWG so much lately as I have been trying my hardest to stop buying more and more expensive reps!!! My will power when it comes to things I want isn't great. Not always a bad thing...!

 

So anyway it was my 26th birthday last week and I was in London for work - I conveniently walked up Bond Street and treated myself to a new Mont Blanc croc wallet, a platinum Le Grand (not the rollerball pictured below) and a Speedmaster Date.

 

I'll take proper photos with my SLR on the weekend and do a review, but for now I have some iPhone 5 snaps to share!!!

 

Thanks again to everybody on the forum who has contributed over the years, it's only thanks to this forum that I'm as educated on watches as I am and have the appreciation for watches that I do :thumbsup: .

Waaaaaait a minute here! So you mean if I stop buying reps for a while I will actually be able to afford a gen one I really want?!? :) That's food for thought right there. One will have to stay away from here though, that's for sure...

I stopped buying reps month on month and bought new straps to keep me happy for a while to save enough money to justify getting a gen! Worked a treat :D

That, my friend, is a handsome watch. Looks great!

 

If you dont mind me asking, What kind of watch is that rectangular shaped one on the nightstand/End Table?

Simey83 is right it's a Rotary!! It's a solid 9ct gold Cartier homage, with a croc strap. I don't know much about the model or the Cartier it's based on, haven't had it long! :)
