Nice score mamas.

I was wondering if you were ok. After all you haven't bought anything in what, over a month?

padi56 · 17 July 2006, 08:34 PM

Hope you enjoyed your holiday,thats a great looking example,myself prefer SS over the gold models.

Mammas that's just stunning!

You are putting together a fantastic collection of vintage Omega. Now when is the updated group shot?

Beauty, Mamas. Now there's a watch that would look good ONLY on a strap!! Love the date window surround!!

mamas · 18 July 2006, 07:11 AM

thanks for the comments guys.. and good to be back from holidays.. although it seems a while back :( .. padi, also prefer the ss ones, but it seems that the gold ones way outnumber the ss versions.. it has been really difficult to source a good ss example at a decent price.
will make a fresh group shot when i receive this one

Another score Mamas!! You certainly have the knack for finding them!

I think it is a beautiful watch pal, enjoy it!

Mort · 25 July 2006, 11:09 PM

I have the same on in 18k and you are right, it took a long time to find one that was in good and stock shape. Actually it took me 2 years to find mine. I always found a few but usually they did not have the stock crown on them.I see yours is correct as well.

I bought mine through a vintage dealer on line whom I had bought from in the past. I love the watch and I wear it quite often. I love the way the quick set works. And for an old watch it keeps very accurate time.

Congrats on yours, the pie pan connie is a true classic.
