    I agree , I own both omega and rolex and there is a difference in build quality …people that think omega is in the category of Rolex (unless they really love Omega) don’t have the patience to wait for the AD to sell them one at retail , or can’t afford one to begin with ..let’s be honest .omega makes to many changes on there models and swatch thing to me was a disgrace ..makes the brand look cheap. That being said Omega is a great brand slightly better than Breitling in my opinion.

    In the Datejust range you should always aim for the Fluted bezel and Jubilee bracelet combination! Then the top three dials are the Blue baton marker, the Mint Green and, my personal favourite, the Wimbledon dial 🙌🏻👌🏻

    If you are speaking about the white dial steel I don't considèrent panda because the black is just a circle and not the entire the entire Chrono dials. But you can find real panda on white gold. Maybe a better alternative is 35th anniversary LE speedy which a real panda. As for the Daytona I prefer my Daytona in black dial.
