    Hello Everyone,

    I am Charlie from Pennsylvania. I work in higher education. My grandfather owned two omega watches. And I have two 42mm PO's I just think they are the best for me. I enjoy all of your posts very informative. So am I crazy to own two PO's?

    I assume you have two arms, so why not two POs?

    Welcome.

    Greetings from Singapore. Just to say hi to the friendly folks here. A relatively new collector with modest means.

    Really appreciate the width and depth of information shared on this forum. looking to acquire vintage omegas. Please bear with my questions as I am on a steep learning curve.

    Hello folks, greetings from Finland!

    Just joined the Omega club today when I acquired my first Omega - and at the same time my first "real" watch - Seamaster 300m chrono diver.

    Looking forward to have good discussions and getting good tips from more experienced members!

    My name is Richard and I am new to the forum. I have been collecting watches for 50 years, the first was a gift from my uncle, a Timex, when I was 5 years of age. No matter how little or much my watches have cost they are all special to me. Indeed, they characterise my life with all the ups and downs. Losing my wife to cancer at the age of 45 was lowest and the highest being my children. This year I retired from work after enjoying a successful career as a teacher and art dealer. I celebrated this with an Omega Railmaster Chronograph. I now travel and mentor young people to pursue their passions.

    My name is Jonathan. I'm an watch enthusiast, and an Omega fan. I own two Omegas:

    2220.80.00 - Seamaster 300M (Bond, blue wave dial)
    231.10.42.21.03.001 - Seamaster Aqua Terra (blue teak)

    Looking forward to acquiring more timepieces and Omegas in the future.
