I went with an Omega Seamaster. If it’s good enough for James Bond it’s good enough for me.

I hate to ruin this for you, but the original and most prominent Bond watch is a Rolex Submariner (which is a classic). Omega (while still a great brand) didn’t come on the scene until the 90’s Pierce Brosnan years.

Omega is most notable for being the Olympic timekeepers and the watch US astronauts wore when we went to the moon.

Are there a lot of pretentious broke-dicks wearing Rolexes? Of course. But that doesn’t mean it still isn’t a classic name with some classic time pieces
