The Omegas are much better watches overall than TAGs, based on reputation, company history, quality of manufacture, and watch movements used. TAGs are still good watches -- but they are far from the best value in quality and prestige for their price range.
Where TAG succeeds is largely from being widely known. For people who know little about watches, the "known world" of watches usually starts with Timex, moves up to Seiko, then TAG, and finally hits the peak at Rolex.
Also, notice that TAGs are sold like Seikos -- many generic watch shops and department stores like Macy's are authorized dealers for TAG. But you will find the nicer watches like Rolex and Omega sold authorized only through nicer jewelry stores.
: Also, is the Ladies
: Seamaster Pro still available in Steel/18K?
The two-toned models are being discontinued this year. So if that is what you want, now is the time to get one!
Good luck and enjoy whichever you choose!
