    Yeah, I don’t get why they didn’t provide more adjustment holes- it’s a no-brainer :unsure:

    it's definitely better than I thought it would be. Better in the sun than indoors.

    I was using before speedy 005 but the chemistry between me and the watch was zero.

    I had a opportunity to buy this lovely watch from another watch enthusiast last week and I really love it.

    I woke up this morning thinking about a watch that has been on my repair "to do" list for a year or more, a circa early-1970s Fortis "Stratoliner 20". The watch had been totally out of sight and mind for months having failed in my search for the needed part. While still in bed this morning, I grabbed my laptop and did a search for a donor movement (AS1882/83), and found an operating one for $24. It should arrive in time to give it and my watch to my WM next week.

    Picked up this nice looking Omega Genéve the other day. I can not claim that I bought it because of the watch alone:whistling:
