Rolex Explorer vs Omega Planet Ocean

FOOL ME ONCE SHAME ON YOU , FOLL ME TWICE , WELL , THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN ! ! ! :( :( :(

I've always trusted her and I wanted this watch to be something that she had some say in since it's going to be with us for a long, long time.

in a sporty watch. I love the double-locking mechanism along with the half-link adjustment within the buckle, as well. Lastly, the "ROLEX" logo is imprinted all along the edge of the inside of the front of the watch case. I thought it was a cool, little detail

Definitely feel like I've made the right choice. Yes it may be controversial owing to the fact that the slide rule is no longer there, but I think it's one of the best looking watches I've seen, and feel very lucky to wear it on my wrist.

It is reserved and yet instantly recognized. It's a sports watch, but could be worn in a formal setting. It is clean, simple, and minimal while still being elegant, precisely engineered, and beautiful.

I always liked the Omega brand and valued it for the design, and some unique features that just look too good, like broad arrow. This brand also to me feels a bit more innovative, and has an interesting heritage, even if it's mostly used for marketing purposes..

Everest. This was Ian Fleming's watch, the watch James Bond wore in his books. The only reason Sean Connery was wearing a Submariner was the prop man forgot to get the proper watch and one of the directors loaned him his Submariner to wear while filming instead. The only caveat about this watch is the Amazon price

For a new piece in the <= $1500 price range I'd suggest the 38mm Christopher Ward or the 36mm Oris Divers Sixty-Five (the latter might require searching the used market).
