I have been watch hunting, too, Harriet! I wish we could go together! I''ve looked mostly at Ebel and Concord. It is just hard to decide looking at pictures, and there are no stores nearby with these brands. I did try on a Rolex the other day, but I coudn''t see $5000 for all stainless steel when you can get some that are 18k gold with diamonds for that price. But I really don''t want one that is too dressy. I need a nice looking everyday watch.
I think the omega is a great choice!I own and have sold Rolex and Omega watches...both quality and classic looks...but the omega is a smaller watch and great for every day wear...with or without diamonds.
