rolex or omega???

[Naila]

I am a Omega supporter as well, considering the fact that you already own 2 of the Rolexes. Omega has a reputation of having slightly more subtle and sleek designs, which I prefer over the solid and traditional ones. It may be priced lower, but the brand image is not actually lower than Rolex. You can look around and ask about the brand history of Omega before you make the decision.

And yes, I agree with two of the posters above that Omega is definitely Not a fashion brand. It has been known as a quality watch maker even back when my great grandmother was young.

I would go for a Rolex Yachtmaster or a Patek Twenty-4 as a first choice, Cartier Roadster or Breguet XX Transatlantique as a second choice. Mix it up a little!

ITA!!!! Omega has quite a rich history and is an excellent brand! They have been around for more than two centuries, and was in fact founded half a century before Rolex! The Speedmaster was the watch worn by Neil Armstrong and co on the MOON!!!!!

Sorry for the rant. I am honestly quite shocked that some people think Omega is a fashion brand

Rolex definitely isn't the end all be all when it comes to watches folks! And I say that as a fan!

To the OP, happy birthday hun! If you want a sportier watch, take a look at the mid size Speedmaster, I think they are 36mm. Some have MOP dials and diamond bezels and are quite gorgeous! If you want another Rolex, I would get a mid size with the MOP or rhodium roman dial. The aforementioned Breguet is very stunning too!

since when uses omega swarovski crystals? seems unlikely for them i am sure it must be diamonds

I'm pretty certain they are orange sapphires,and you're right,they don't use Swarovski crystals.

I'm confused! Is LV Virgin not nice? I read some unkind words from her on another thread. Is that what the mods do to keep things nice?

Not nice is one word. I could think of others but forum rules an all that.
