In Response To: Would you buy if not for name??? (akula)

I have a Sub, a GMT (my favorite watch), an Omega Speedmaster Pro, and a vintage Seamaster. I like the look of the Rolex. It is sporty. The Seamaster (in its current incarnation) is too dressy. It has an identity crisis between a dressy watch and a sports tool watch.

Next, I like the fact Rolex has inhouse movement compared to a $90 ETA movement in a $1500 watch. )

AsiaDude,

I responded according to this posting.
