The Divers 65 that I have been alternating with my Nomos Tangente!
It's a marvel. I love this watch!

I do, but surprisingly I don't have one at the moment.

[mention]the246guy [/mention] I love that watch! In fact I found a Momotaro collabo at a mall in Nashville and almost took it home with me. Nice looks and a great size, it was very tempting!

@jordanscollected for my fellow GShock fan from Haraki’s IG. Looks like he customized his strap with the IH & Ignition logos. About as close to a collab as we’ll get but really cool.

Is there anyone here having some experience with the Omega Seamaster AT or the Speedmaster? I'm planning to get either one of these in the 38 mm version and would like to have some ideas on the movements between the two. Both have a Co-Axial movement, but are quite different. Any clues?

thanks for sending @Anesthetist Matt. At least we know the thought has come up before.
While I'm here, I have my MTG on today. It would be awesome to have Iron Heart etched in the metal case

@the246guy the 38 mm Speedmaster uses one of Omega's standard co-axial movements, whereas the Seamaster Aqua Terra has a Master Chronometer rated co-axial movement.
A Master Chronometer movement is certified by METAS to be basically impervious to magnetism and is slightly more accurate than a regular chronometer. Omega have a web page if you want all the technical details.
If I was getting an Omega, I'd be after a Master Chronometer rated watch, largely for their anti-magnetic properties. It's something of a USP, although Tudor released a very cool version of the Black Bay last year that meets the same standards.
The 42 mm Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch was upgraded last year with a new movement that is Master Chronometer certified. It's also the classic design, so it might be worth seeing if you can get away with the bigger case. Unlike the 38 mm version, and the AT, it's got a manual winding movement, so you need to wind it up every day or two.
There's also the recently unveiled Speedmaster '57, which has a 40.5 mm case size, so roughly between the other two models, and a manual wind master chronometer movement. If you find the regular Speedy too big, this might fit your wrist better.

Omega and Swatch have collaborated on the Speedmaster MoonSwatch.
They have a ceramic case and quartz chronograph movement, and come in a variety of colours, and will cost around $260. They're available "in selected Swatch stores" from Saturday.
More details from the Speedmaster fanatics at Fratello Watches or Swatch.
