Don’t hate on the serviced 1675. I wish it had everything original, but you should have seen how bad a shape this thing was in before service. The Vietnam war was not kind to this watch. Cracked glass. Gouges in the bezel insert. Dust and dirt. On the dial. Rolex completely overhauled this thing and it looks great now.

The Omega is just an awesome display of modern watch making with totally a cool new color combo. Don’t understand why I don’t see more of these on Reddit tbh.

Would you rather have the serviced Pepsi or the new 75th anniversary summer blue diver 300m?

The Rolex easily, it’s beautiful and iconic and the bracelet on that is so clean compared to the rubber strap of the SMP. But man I gotta be real, Rolex absolutely polished the HELL out of this thing like damn. The bezel’s grooves are the biggest indicator of the amount of metal they took off of this. Regardless, it’s still beautiful and I hope you wear it in great health! Good on you for taking care of it
