A dilemma....if I totally misread his taste he could hate it, but of course tell his dear old dad that he's thrilled.
I say pick something that you wouldn't mind keeping yourself. Tell him if it is not his taste, you can take him watch shopping and then keep the watch from the year you became a Dad.

I too am a 76 baby and have thought about what Omega from 76 I'd want -- the speedmasters are hard to find and that was definitely the era of funky watches. Something square seems to define the times a bit, for me anyway, and I love the fact that this discussion spawned an entire catalog to peruse. Awesome.

That has to be one of the most 70's things to have ever 70'd

And worse, I don't even know if I mean that as a compliment or not.

By the way, I'm looking at the catalogue. But this is a 166091 right?

Are you shopping for the OP or yourself?

Yes, must be a typo.

Here's mine, care of @flqt-9000, the 'go to guy' for all things 70's Omega... even flightmasters...
