Ehhh..that's my wife's watch. Too small la IMO....guys must be more man..bigger face especially for diver. The all white watch is very popular with ladies, so it comes across as not for men.

Omega 2254.50

Hi Everyone

Any idea if there are ADs still carrying the 2254.50?

Looking at Omega and their current PO but still prefer the sword hands on the 2254.50..

Any help is much appreciated, have a good start to the week!

Any bros can help me out here? Was wondering if quartz or automatic watches are better/worth for money.

Go the quartz way if you want to save money. Automatic needs servicing every ~5 years.
If you want a maintenance free and highly accurate timepiece, quartz is your choice. I would pick a Grand Seiko quartz if I need a quartz watch but now, I am happy with my automatic.

Got 2 vostok europe. Good value but don't expect the same refinement as swiss makes.

They use stock ETA movement. They are good eta 2824 and 2836 are proven workhorse.

They are mostly dress watch iirc, I like a stowa but wait time is long

My mum has the 42mm with the rubber strap and it looks fantastic on her wrist.

but when i tried it on.. it just can't work.. perhaps with a black rubber it may fit a summer beach vibe.
