You have the Rolex already...my suggestion is to..

...hold on to it and spend the next six months visiting this website and Timezone. (There aren't a lot of other helpful sources out there for Omega information, IMHO.) Write to Omega in New York and ask them to send you a catalogue, or find an authorized Omega dealer and get one from them, if available. Find your favorite photo of the Omega you want and rip it out of the catalogue. Scan it and put it on your computer as wallpaper. Put the original up on your refrigerator, or on the mirror where you brush your teeth. After six months of looking at the picture and researching it like mad, if you still have a passionate desire for it, decide whether to keep both or sell the Rolex. Sounds like you lean toward the Omega anyway, but remember that the Rolex almost certainly has higher resale value.
