38mm El Primero or the new FOIS?

For me, No-Date is always the answer!

FOIS. By about 238,855 miles.

The FOIS will be easier to sell if you are not keeping it for the long haul. It also depends on whether you already have another iteration of the Speedmaster. If so, that model El Primero would be my choice.

 

[Snowballs]

Tough choice; both look outstanding

Zenith tugs at my heartstrings partly because it is a bit less common to see one in the wild. There are a lot of Speedmasters out there (albeit for very good reasons). But yeah, I like what Zenith does and their history is fascinating.

Fois.... mille fois!

I own the FOIS, so, I’ve made my choice, but I do think the Zenith is a stunning watch.

I confess to leaning toward the El Primero, though both are lovely.

I'm in the "it must have a date" demographic.

For me no-date always win. Did you post the same thing on Reddit? I saw a similar post there

 

[Kermit369]

Nope, not me.

They really nailed it right out the gate

Gotta be the FOIS

Omega for sure!!!

 

[Hellohowareyou]

I just noticed I do not have my opinion plastered in here. The First Omega In Space is the most beautiful speedmaster.

I would put it ahead by 1 light year compared to the El Primero or 9.471*10^12 kms

The FOIS is just lovely. It has a domed sapphire crystal with a stealthy Omega logo, making it more practical than the Hesalite version.
The Zenith is an amazing watch, though it feels more like a statement piece—I wouldn't wear it every day.
Ideally, get both
