#1 Omega Seamaster GMT

#2 Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean (42mm version)

#1 is currently my favourite, but however much I like the look of #1, I'm less certain whether I'll still feel the same in ten years, whereas #2 below potentially has more longevity and versatility. Cosmetic reasons for chosing this are the blue styling being slightly different, and I like the basket weave bracelet. Would probably work less well with a leather strap than with a blue rubber strap.

#2 is a contender because it looks great with both a black rubber strap and leather strap, as well as the classy and subtle bracelet that it comes with.

I'm getting married in August and want a nice smart watch for the occasion and the memories, and I also want a sea-friendly watch for the swimming and scuba diving on the honeymoon. I currently don't have any watch as it's broken!

So - #1 or #2? :).
 
2nd one. by the way thats a pretty crap watch for diving imo (i have it and i dont bother wearing it - use a computer and another diving watch)
 
I like them both, I have the second in the larger size with an orange bezel but the first one is also superb.

Whichever you choose, you won't be disappointed.
 
IMO the second looks more refined and 'professional' where as the first is a little louder (but no to silly extents, both very nice watches)

Guess it just depends on what you do and even your personality to some extent.
I'd say the second would go better if you were wearing suits all the time etc.

I'd go with the first, a bit more 'interesting' and I much prefer the strap/bracelet/whatever on the first.
Just my opinion.

Which one? I hear what you're saying but I don't need a dive computer really for the level of diving I'll be doing. "How long have I been down" is all I need to know. Appreciate the input though :).
Click to expand...

well it will be fine really in hot water.. 'cause you wont be using gloves so can still set the bezel, secondly, its not adjustable so if you wear wetsuit/drysuit its a bit of a hassle (well it has the extending thing but tbh its pretty useless)
