Re: Omega vs Luminox
In Response To: Omega vs Luminox ()

: ... Even if the quality of the Omega
: is somehow "better" ...

Have you had both in your personal hand?
And taken a close look?

: ... isn't the point moot if
: the Luminox is good enough to pass Seal
: specs? Who needs a better watch than that?

As long as you are a seal ... ;-)
Not everyone is!
Different people need and want different things.

: Even Bond wouldn't.

: Not lookin' to fight, just lookin' for insight.

You have to compare the real watches direct

Don't decide on the basis of pictures, articels (or other peoples opinions).
