I'm looking for a durable Omega that I can wear everyday and that's not too heavy. I'm used to light watches that I can run/swim with and recently tried on seamaster bond which was far too big and heavy for my liking. I have a 60's seamaster deville, which I love - it's light and stylish - but it's far too fragile for everyday use and I don't want to screw it up. Also, my wrist size is small (6.5 inch diameter) so a big faced watch doens't make sense either. I've looked online at Omega's site and they have some smart looking titanium automatic wathces with rubber bands, but they're not available in the US. No telling how heavy they are anyways.
Preferably I'd find something only slightly used, automatic, relatively light, has a 30-40mm face, and with a rubber band that can handle everyday use and activity. Perhaps this watch doesn't exist, or not by Omega anyways.
Any suggestions? I'm not married to Omega, but I like them. Other brands to consider; suggestions?
Thanks
