..So late last year, found and secured a deal on this 166.077. It was in non running condition, but looked completely original, even had the original Ploprof pamphlet. I seeked info on who to get it serviced by and was recommended Stefan Stefansson in London. He did an amazing job and keeping everything original. So my Ploprof dates from year that “Jaws” was first released; 1975. Dial is absolutely mesmerising. Hour hand faded to a yellowish hue. I sourced an original (modern) Omega blue rubber strap that gives the watch that authentic original poster ad look. It is running absolutely superbly. Completely smitten with my Ploprof 😍

Congrats, great looking Ploprof! They really are fun to wear and really wear better than the numbers suggest. Got the Summer Blue and the mesh bracelet, but the vintage one has a great vibe to it.
