Every gentleman needs a good watch. That’s for sure!
So what is more stylish than an OMEGA?
Ralph, the editor of A Gentleman’s World, is working with OMEGA quiet a long time, so he arranged some beautiful timepieces for us to combine with our outfits. Kenneth knows Ralph from the GQ Gentleman Of The Year 2015 Award, where they made it to the top 10.
Kenneth is wearing the OMEGA Seamaster Aqua Terra from the current collection. Whereas I wear the OMEGA Speedmaster Moonphase from the „MOONWATCH“ collection. Why „Moonwatch“? Because the first watch on the moon was from OMEGA!

Nope! This not a typical OOTD article! On this day we wee together with some friends heading the Boboli Gardens in Florence. When you go to Florence, you should not miss this place! Sascha Venus fromwww.yourmoderngent.com and Christian Neuendorff are with us, with us for a walk and with us for some timepieces.
What a great watch! What a great team! Let´s go!
The first small shooting is happening above the Arno on a bridge parallel to the „Ponte Vecchio“. The temperatures are soft so Kenneth and I wear turtlenecks from FALKE and a jacket. But the star on this day is the timepiece. The Seamaster is shows up a detail from the first OMEGA watch: Instead of heading at the 3 o´lock position, the dater is located at the 6 o´clock position. The watch has a very symmetric design. For those who are sailing: You will fall in love with the design! The dial reminds of a teak-deck and water is not problem for that watch at all.
„THE SPEEDMASTER MOONPHASE CO-AXIAL MASTER CHRONOMETER CHRONOGRAPH“ – that is the official title on the OMEGA website – that sounds great for those who love watches. For those who don’t: You just have to know that this is a very complicated timepiece with a lot of technical stuff inside. It has to be adjusted only once in 10 years. That’s huge! If you look too deep into the nail, like I did, you will mesmerized by the moon, which is shown so detailed like it could be a picture made by the NASA.
Too bad we had to give back these timepieces. Work hard, play hard!
GENTLEMAN´S WORD
Those who own more than one automatic watch should invest in a watch winder to avoid damages which can occur during standing still.
