Hey everyone,
Have a Omega Seamaster300 here, just generally confused about whether this is an original Omega or one put together by Watch Co. Have spent some time browsing through these threads, still was not able to confirm. It seems as though I h…
The Canada Appreciation Thread
A few words of appreciation from a regular ol’ United Statesian:

This new trend of putting pebbled calf leather on dress watches to “dress them down” is an insult to dress…
