Omega Flightmaster
Not every man wants a dainty triple calendar or a svelte gold case with fluted lugs. Some men want a watch with more steel than an episode of Airwolf. Omega has produced some lovely timepieces. They've manufactures some brilliant chronographs that have made horological history. But they also made some watches, like the Omega Flightmaster, that were designed with pure functionality in mind. While some might be turned off by the hulking 42.5mm tonneau case, we like it. It reminds us of heroes of the 1970s: short of talk and strong on witty one liners and high-caliber handguns. Think Clint Eastwood or Charles Bronson. This particular Flightmaster is ready for the wrist, coming complete with its original 1162 bracelet with all it's links. The case all there - it hasn't been over-polished like so many Flightmasters have been. With a few light scuffs, the case even feels like a proper tool watch capable of withstanding whatever you throw at it. The dial is in great original
