Ok. You have a choice of two watches. A Vintage (1963) Rolex 1002 with cal. 1560 on a jubilee bracelet and a recent Omega Seamaster Professional chronograph.




Now despite the Omega being a recent model, it has no boxes or papers. However it's 100% genuine. It has many scrathes and marks to it. Mainly on the bezel, has a frew marks on the lower end of the left lug and has a 4-digit number bluntly inscripted at the back of the clasp.



This Rolex is in superb condition, despite its age. Comes with a more recent box, with booklets and addition Rolex parts.



You have to base your decision on:

1.Style of the watch

2. Value of the watch





Which one would you go for?

I'm not a fan of either one, but if I had to pick between the two, I'd pick the Omega.

Gold Rolex = 80 year old gray haired doctor, or a rich yuppie stuck in the 1980's.

Here's my two watches, which I never wear because I have a watch on my cell phone.

Fossil is 10 years old (present from ex-girlfriend) & the Salco I got for 2000 Colones (about $7) in Costa Rica... yep, the days are in Spanish.

well i like the omega one it looks normal: i would let my little sister around someone who wears that one...the 80's rolex....i saw it on this guy yesterday


I have a question, what are the other 3 dials for on the watch?

carfanatic

The subdials are to present the seconds, then the other two are used when you activate the stopwatch. it indicates the minutes and hours of the time lapse during the initiation of the function.
