Spot on with the NTTD lack of dial legibility! I've had mine for 5 months now and noticed this the day after I bought it. In most lighting conditions, it's totally fine, highly legible even and in the complete darkness also excellent. Where it struggles is low light and highly reflective scenarios. The lack of contrast, the skeleton hands and lack of double AR coating make this watch IMPOSSIBLE to read in low light conditions. You're the first one to nail this criticism! I can't help but feel this is a huge mark missed for the omega, as I imagine James bond should BE ABLE TO READ HIS WATCH no matter the ambient light!
@@Watch_Papa hmm, well for me it's an easy decision. I think you also nailed in your video. The NTTD is a more special watch. It's more quirky, but also more fun. The 39mm pelagos never really did it for me, I prefer the straight no nonsense original pelagos or the FXD versions. But the omega hands down! It might not be perfect, but no watch truly is. That's why we keep buying more! 😂
amzwatch You are so well-informed about luxury watches. You've obviously done your due diligence and the comparison to the US is very informative...because of course, I live in New York. thank you very much
I own the NTTD and Pelagos LHD. I love the Pelagos LDH on the OEM band. I’ve found the NTTD is best on an Erika’s Original, in Havana, w/brushed and the broad arrow on the clasp. Between the two, the Omega is more comfortable to wear, for me, due to weight and band. The Pelagos is a better, actual watch for diving.
Wow. Nice review! Both are in my collection and are my favourites now after changing to Uncle Seiko President Bracelets. Amazing wearing comfort and fit.
Nice review! I'd like to ask if you've noticed the Uncle Strap scratching the back of the lugs? As it has some metal extrusion resting on them. Thanks!
I’ve owned both and sold the omega. The Tudor Pelagos 39 is the perfect Rolex Ti submariner and certainly represents what Rolex used to be. The only issue the Pelagos continues to be plagued with…the hour & minute hands have less lume than the rest of the watch. Pelagos all day
@@Watch_Papa terrific question…I originally purchased the Omega because of the homage to the Bond franchise, it’s titanium and it would be my daily beater. I’ve never been enamored with the small tumor at the 10:00 position and impulsively I made the purchase. Nice timepiece but the He escape valve and mediocre action of the bezel was the impetus to unload. I am fortunate to own numerous Rolex models and the Tudor Pelagos 39mm is outstanding. I do have the Ed White Speedy but otherwise no SeaMasters in the future until they excise the protrusion
@@CodyVella You apparently identify with you Omega and feel insulted due to your insecurities lol These timepieces are material goods and other than an individual’s predilection have no appeal. I own numerous Rolex watches, an Ed White Speedy, Tudor Pelagos and Sinn but they mean nothing other than a watch for the moment. For those Beta’s (see mirror) who believe a timepiece makes the person you should be one with your ever depreciating Omega 😂
