Hi. Have not posted a pic of this pair on this board. I particularly like this pair from the old Omega pre Swatch days. Cheers Phil

Only pressed the button once and end up with wallpaper. Got me buggered but at least the watches are nice.
Cheers Phil

Thanks guys. Yeah the one on the left is a hand winder from the sixties and the auto is probably early seventies. I could find out using the Omega search engine but haven't bothered. I have a few others as well and do wear those ones. Had them for some years now.will post pics of some of the others soon. My Planet Ocean is never here, spends most of its time in Switzerland for warranty work long long tale of woe with that watch.
Cheers Phil

The hand winder looks so elegant. It looks so thin! I can see that one being a nice compliment to a tuxedo

Yeah Pete. Quite thin and no doubt meant for formal wear. Don't own a Tux anymore, gave it to the thrift shop years ago. Cheers Phil

Thanks guys. I am trying to breathe a bit of life into this sub forum with good quality watches. The vintage stuff I will be posting is generally quite rare and valuable . Much of the stuff from the 50s and 60s is difficult to get in original condition as parts were "upgraded" when the watches were serviced.
Cheers Phil

Hi. Thian, I wondered when we would see your Omega here again. Always good to see them.
Cheers Phil

I have several prebond quartz models from the 90s but this full sized two tone is my favorite. Thin but with enough weight to feel substantial, the bracelet is one of the best IMO. prebond twoToned by blingmeister, on Flickr
