Hi, mid-thirties, decided to get a “real” watch. Like the aesthetics and versatility of both these watches. Plan to get additional straps to dress up/down. Wanted your thoughts on which you would go with and why? Don’t plan on reselling, simply want to start slowly collecting pieces that look good, function well and are dependable and lastly, won’t be too upset if they get dinged up. Which would you recommend?
Ironically enough, a non-ti Khaki was my first real watch and an SSC813 was my second. An Omega Speedmaster was #3. The Hamilton gets worn the most as my everyday watch (I work from home) and don’t hesitate to do yard work, split firewood, etc in it. Omega gets worn “out” and the Seiko on silicone or sailcloth strap gets worn for water sports and when I want to swap out the hamilton but the Omega is too much. I really like the Seiko but outside if water activities, I prefer the hamilton for everyday use.
