Saw the Omega SMP with grey face in the flesh today and was a little disappointed to be honest. Think I may have to rethink what my next purchase will be

Of the two I'd probably go with the Stowa, but I'd want to wait for the new Smiths ones from Timefactors first.

I like the 1016 style one but not sure on the expedition model. Much prefer the stowa even for double the money. Might look to move a few on for one

I’m assuming that’s the 36mm LLD, Paul? Very nice.

36. should be a lovely watch for the more moderate of wrist. I used to have the 42 and a great watch but with the long lugs it was just too big for me.

Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread
^^^ that’s interesting, Paul. If you go for it I would love to see a review and some wrist shots. A year or two back I would have been very interested, but I have slightly gone the other way and now find myself very comfortable with the 41 to 43 mm range that I tend to wear most of the time these days.

Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread
I too have tried on the 42mm LLD and it wore large, even for a 42mm watch due to the lugs.stefs wrote: ↑Mon Aug 05, 2019 10:16 amyepAmor Vincit Omnia wrote: ↑Sun Aug 04, 2019 9:51 am I’m assuming that’s the 36mm LLD, Paul? Very nice.

I feel that Longines maybe have gone too far though in reducing the dial size. I'd definitely try out the 36mm but feel that maybe 38-39mm would have been a better option.
It's a bit akin to CW with the 38/43mm Trident mk2 disparity which has now been sensibly, imo, addressed with a middle option with the 38/40/42mm mk3, albeit we need a 40mm GMT and some more colourways to really fill the gap.
