Hi I've now got my 2 favourites so my collection (if you can call it a Collection) is complete

Exceptional classics but "complete" is kind of an empty word around here.

I need to do something about the discolouration on the hour on the Speedmaster hour hand I want to keep the watch original so what can I do/use to get rid of the discolouration

I would suggest a service on that watch.
I am no expert but that looks like it's tracking outwards, is it discolouration from oil or something or is it corrosion. With it not being even I think it's stemming from inside the watch. |

Omega will service it with new hands. They will also send back the old hands as well so it can always be returned to the original state.

Nice Omega! Bought one like it in 99' before the big watch craze. Still have it but needs a service. Omega boutique says the watch will come back, most likely, with a new movement. I think mine was a ref. 3510.

I like the classic like the classic look of these too.
Is that rust on the hour hand? Did you get the watch pressure tested recently? |

I like that Air-King! Nice & dressable option with the stick indicators & just 3-6-9 numerals. The current face with all the numbers every five minutes is a bit too sporty to wear well formally.

Agree 2 is where a collection begins.
2 great choices. Easy to wear, all purpose watches.
