In Response To: Re: Omega vs Tag ()

Yup, I'm an old fart with an Titanium Omega Seamaster. Here's me with my gray beard in Anguilla (British West Indies) along with my watch (big arrow) and my Hunter 46' sailboat (little arrow). To get to this location, I had to sail 23 hours straight from St. Thomas across 110 nautical miles of open ocean at night, in the dark of the moon, in 4' - 6' quartering seas with no land or other boats in sight. You can't see the waves coming at you at all, the boat's movement is violent and unpredictable, you have a full thousand fathoms of water under your keel, and if anything goes wrong your life is 100% on the line.

Yup, us old people with Omegas lead such plain, sedentary lives.

P.S. - I've just taken up kiteboarding as a new sport. It's a blast, and with 32 years sailing experience, and 14 years hang gliding experience, it comes pretty naturally. (:})
