My local Omega boutique had a small get-together event with customers last Sunday.
Main course is served. The new pieces this year are shown but only the white gold Tresor is a production piece and ready for sale. You must have seen these before from the other posts but let me show my version just in case you can see something you like or dislike about the watches from different photographs.
I have always wanted to see the De Ville Tresor in person.
I wanted to know how the new hand-winding, anti-magnetic movement compares to their self-winding siblings.
And how elegant the watch would look on the wrist.
Although I am not a gold person, this rose gold with brown strap combo moves me more. I also wonder how the dial would look up close but I didn't have my macro lens with me.
Here's a better shot of the movement. This is a show piece only and without plastic wrapping.
Sorry about the lighting and misleading white balance. The watch does feel good on the wrist. There is some heft and presence after all.
This one I cannot remember if it is titanium and gold or steel and gold. It is not on my wishlist so I did not study it enough.
The all-steel version is my choice. It looks every bit like the standard Omega press image. Notice the smudge of fingerprint on the polished center link. I intentionally left it on to show you the effect.
Now the smudge is wiped out and the watch is on wrist. Good size indeed.
And it is not thick at all.
However, in the end, I went home with this as you saw from the main post.
Current satisfaction level: 8/10
Remaining savings level: 2/10
Time to go back to work and to make more money. Bye guys.
