My 4th Omega in 3 months?

It all stared a couple of months ago when I sold my Omega America's Cup on TZ to "Charlie Hustle" (who is VERY happy with it!) I then purchased a beautiful Aqua Terra white face with rose gold markers on TZ and I really liked that beautiful co-axial movement I admired through the exhibition caseback but it just did not smile at me... sold it again on TZ and then it was time to buy the classic SMP Chrono which I got almost like new you guessed it... on TZ. I was looking for another classic to add to my humble collection when along came "Dapper Dan" with a GMT 50th Anniversary for sale on TZ... which I am now the proud owner of!
Here are the pics guys hope you like them and more will follow once the watch is in my possession... Omega has definitely become my new obsession!

Pat,

Afraid it's too late for me... maybe I should change my username to "Too far gone"?

Thanx for the kudos and I will write a review for the SMP and later the GMT as well.

Vernon we should for sure! We can grab some dinner and drool over some watches? I'll try to organize something here in January for a February get-together maybe?

Congrats on your watch. Wear it in good health and enjoy it. 4 omegas in 3 months is quite a lot.
