In general watches are ...
Arrived this week:
Is that gray or is it black with just the light making it lighter? Love the watch. I assume it is part of the Pilot line?

Think I have swallowed pills larger than the ETA 2671. I don't think I have seen a rectangular case Wyler with date and the incaflex logo and automatique on the dial.All round great piece might just take it skydiving to test the whole incaflex shock resistance stuff

I've been looking forward to this!!!! 😎 Zee micro adjustment clasp has arrived!!!



Thanks again to @Steve Essex for pointing out this option, as well as Eric at Roseville's OB for getting it out so promptly. 😀

That movt. & dial look spectacular for an obviously well worn watch. Congrats.

Purchased a Seamaster 2541 Quartz for my son as a birth year watch for his HS graduation next summer (2019).

9k Cyma. The case looks unworn, but has some scratches from people trying to open it!
Looks much better in the flesh than a photo. One of those happy surprises on opening.

I just had to have this cool ”off topic” watch.

An Candino Paris Dakar, Thierry Sabine Special Edition, Compass Watch from the late 80’s.

Not an Omega but just cool and odd enough to squeeze in to the collection.

With box and papers, just hope all Omegas I find would come like this also. 😀

Does anyone know anything more about this watch, would be eager to get to know more about it.

Needs a new crystal, and I’ve got to figure out why it’s not running. Otherwise, in fantastic shape.

They call it slate grey, however I would say that it has a slighlty warmer tone. Slightly sepia hue, sort of.
Yes pilot line, Cronometrotipo CP2 Flyback
