There is no higher praise than this

 

That might have been me. This one is coming from Japan.

 

lol

 

Another addition to my Omega 70s family ...

 

That looks really sharp. I always thought the 70s watches were a bit dated looking (OK, I know that sounds stupid coming from a vintage collector - age and preference) but the more of them I see/buy, the more I like them.

Nice catch.

 

Thanks Stewart! ... I hear what you are saying. For example if I was to go for a Connie(which I will get around to) I would not buy a 70s model. They are awful. I would go for the Classic 50/60s models. But I agree there are some terrible designs from the 70s era. I think the watch world was a bit here & there at the time. However "Sometimes" they came up with real gems!

 

New sneakers for me

 

The nice postman dropped by this morning to deliver this....

 

Too big I think,. Hard to 1 hand. Hope I get used to it

 

No patience, couldn't wait 'till I got home so attempted a little crystal polishing. Hopefully some potential.

 

Don't be so sure about that.

Scored the Speediorite today while on business travel.

 

surprise personalization. This is pretty cool, even for a jaded and cynical watch jockey...
