TAG doesn’t really do it for me…Go get a vintage Heuer and now we’re talking!

Omegas are fantastic watches, and most in the watch community would agree that Omega \> TAG. You’ll truly enjoy that watch. I especially like Omega because that watch is extremely versatile, dress, sport, etc… it can fit in.

You should REALLY consider buying pre-owned though (you can get a Seamaster Chrono for $2600), PM me if you want to talk about watches.

Shit I might as well use this opportunity to whore my latest watch:
