Thank you Dino944, perfect reply to my spill, I think our posts cover pretty much all aspects of the argument now succinctly in 2 posts.
"Iconic" was the word i was looking for while posting at midnight, instead I had to find a few other lesser adjectives to put in its place, sighs, a whole day out with the missus must be draining on my brain...
Now, I did skim over the reasoning and justification for the Speedy and Daytona, I truly think my mind was so clouded by the marketing of Omega, even though most of them are factual, and the enthusiastic fan base for the Speedy in watch forums; I either deliberately or subconsciously pushed the valid points you provided into a dark corner of my mind and boxed it away, and I actually did read up and was fully aware of the things you wrote before I made the decision as I was doing research on the Daytona too. I reckon it must be due to the self justification I did to myself after my purchase. (the Omega marketing team must have a smirk on their face now)
Now that you kindly reminded me the positives of the Daytona, the door is now ajar for it in my collection.... must resist!!!!
The Daytona is kind of like the Borg. Resistance is futile.
Boom!
And since I mentioned the Borg, it would be almost criminal for me not to post a shout out to my favorite (ex)-Borg, Seven of Nine played by Jeri Ryan.
On topic: do you think the Omega Speedmaster would be the watch that members of the Enterprise would end up using?
