Call me old school, but I still love hard copy books. I love the smell of old paper and the feel of the pages in my hand. That said, I love the sheen of Omega catalogues and I love browsing through them and admiring the watches. I have two of them:

I used to have a couple more but my wife threw them out 🙁
Does anyone else out there love collecting them? How many do you have and which one is your favorite?
Thanks in advance for your responses. Photos appreciated.

I don't collect the books but I love looking at them, the older the better! I wish I had a catalog page for most of my older watches.

I used to collect watch catalogues back in the 80's and 90's before the internet killed most of them. I still have them on shelves in my garage, many of them with their price lists. Once in awhile I'll have a need to check something.

I think watch manufacturers are still putting out hard copy catalogues. My most recent one is dated 2018.

Going to start keeping an eye out for these. There have to be some from the 60's floating around.

Not like they used to do pre-internet.
