Understatement of the week

 

that is not a piece for the museum. they have enough of these past 321 examples. sell it here or on the bay with BIN and best offers..... good luck. kind regards. achim

 

This is NOT one of the 145.022's in the serial # range of the dials
that were improperly manufactured with less than or missing
Zapon coating and/or black color mixture problems that turn
Brown.
Putting the watch up as a BIN is silly. You don't know the value.
And no one here can tell you what it is because they can't
point to a comparable sale. But it's your watch.

 

Why don't you keep it? It's a beautiful piece, that's for sure.

 

Wow, looking at this one you might think, the first moonlanding happened no longer than two years ago!

 

Thanks.

 

Remember Oct. 2008? I do.

 

Dear Forum Members,
The box which the Omega leatherette came in, says Burgundy dial.

 

Where would I find information of previous sales?

 

Can this be possible with the Ref. # I have been grateful to find out?

 

Am I the only one who hates to hear a watch referred to as a "piece" ? I have 99 things that I call a piece but a watch ain't one.

 

An artistic creation is called a piece.

 

I have that same feeling when people discover beautiful watches and are mainly interested in how much they are worth.

 

I have been researching this special timepiece for quite sometime. It is a beautiful artistic work of art. If you have been following the thread, you would know what others have posted, and given me a wealth of information regarding the watch, which I had not known. When you become a teacher you will understand what it is like to become a life long learner.

 

My comment was not directed at you, more something i notice in general. My non-watch-enthusiast friends sadly seem to combine the sentences 'nice watch!' with 'how much is it worth?' Instead of 'what does it do?'

 

It is sad, but young people do no use watches anymore; they use their mobile phones for everything, including telling the time. Most watches belonging to the present generation will be sold by the next that inherit them.

What are you trying to tell us?
