Re: Omega people

In Response To: Omega people ()

I find for men a watch is a very personal thing.

The watch is like a representation of the man. If you are wearing a $ 5 watch you do not feel you are a captain of industry. You know in an interview you are the programmer not the manager.

If you put on a million dullar Rolex you feel everyone is out to cheat you and the only place you feel safe is behind some lawyer.

The Omega is like hey I'm classy but ready to work.

I've noticed that when I talk to people about their watch they are uncomfortable. Because they do not want to feel they showed off or were too modest either.

For women its different its just visual does it go with my shoes?

Sometimes I wonder who buys those diamond Omegas?
