So I am a Seiko guy. 150+ in the collection....all Seiko. Vintage divers, current GS and everything in between. All Seiko. Until today. Enter the Omega Speedy Pro 3570.50. It's a piece I have always wanted and the right oppty came along. It's everything I'd hoped. Now both of Pogue's wrists are covered   |

The Speedmaster dial layout and bezel is the epitome of a chronograph.
Not sure why modern chronographs have the 6 9 12 layout instead of the classic 3 6 9 layout.
Congrats.

Congratulations man. The Speedy is an amazing watch. Had a day date before but had to sell it to get my 6105. Wear it proudly.

Congrats! The 3570.50 is a great choice. Mine doesn't get much wrist time, but it's a keeper for sure.   |

That is the classic chrono look if I ever saw one. I was hunting one as well at one time.
