What you fail to realize is that we post here, and think that our Omegas are the best. I would not change my Seamaster for a Sea Dweller any day. I would not own a Rolex or any other brand because someone else sees it as being better. I think (my opiniion, and my god given right to think so) Omegas are the best watch out there. I have owned Seikos and ESQs and Timex, but have never enjoyed any watch as much as my Omega. I am not trying to get in the middle of anything here, but I am afraid I already have. I find your posts annoying to say the least. I come here to read interesting info and opinions purely for pleasure and to learn something. I consider John a very rich source of knowledge and he personally saved me from purchasing a grey market watch (a big mistake) when I was starting out. I also consider John a friend and do not like to see him attacked on this forum, and very much like to hear what he has to say.
Simply put, we do not mind people posting on this forum with their opinions or problems, but when it seems every post innegative and putting other members of this forum down for their intersts, we get bothered.
It does not matter what brand you talk about, Rolex, Ford, Ferrari, Omega, they all have their problems.
As far as yout last comment about the world consisting of more than Omega watches...yeah we know. Omega watches are a passion for us, I personally consider my Omega a mechanial piece of art. Are you going to put me down for that? Are you going to put me down for my other interests?
I am sure I will recieve a rude posting or e-mail after this post. But I would like you to prove me wrong. Can you do that?
