    The gf got that one. I want the Pacific, but they really feel like a toy.

    Continuing on the theme of posting pics of watches I don’t own. :)

    Had dinner with my buddy who’s the local Rolex and also Omega AD, and he was wearing this beautiful thing tonight. All I got as far as info is that it’s one of a few super limited edition vintage pocket watches that omega turned into wrist watches. I may have gotten that wrong because it was super loud in the restaurant ... either way It was wonderful. :) (my peasant watch in the background)

    Well for starters I don't go to the inner city and 2nd of all, there's a lot of places in today's world where that's not safe to wear.

    I left LA last year and in the last 6 months, I stopped wearing a watch completely when I was out in downtown or even in Beverly Hills. Just not worth the risk with so many gangs focused on stealing watches.

    I actually bought three Pacifics that trip, long story. :) None for me, I wanted Atlantic. I'll buy Antarctic if I see one. Won't buy another Moonswatch unless I see a Neptune.

    I found out a little more about it. It's 1 of 88 limited edition, ref: 231.53.49.10.04.001

    https://www.omegawatches.com/en-us/watch-omega-seamaster-aqua-terra-150m-xxl-small-seconds-49-2-mm-23153491004001

    It looks like they're not using actual vintage pocket watches, rather they just made a limited edition that reproduces the look.
    Trying to find more info about it just out of curiosity.

    Very cool . I think more should do this. They must see a market for the larger watches. Here in the VC , original movement from early 1900's . When Vacheron made watches to Sell at J.E. Caldwell in Philadelphia.
