Omega is relatively good value for money. But its vintage models keep a far better value than new ones.
Omega despite using non inhouse movements is the second most recognized brand after Rolex. However the problems that happened with the Broad Arrows should take your attention and think twice before the purchase. I think that the price increase is mainly due to marketing and advertising costs.
I would go for a vintage pre 1967 speedmaster with a 321 caliber which is the best chrono you can get in my opinion.
Wishing you all the best for your next purchase.
