IG seems to take many of the good photos that used to come here, so here goes...
Two 145.012's from opposite ends of the condition scale.

 

Both are nice watches IMHO.

Cheers

 

One day I hope to have two Speedmasters on either end of the condition spectrum, but for now it's these two Wittnauer 8023-241T's

Excuse the glary photos. Did my best to jerry rig one of my SLR polarizing filters to use with my iPhone camera haha

 

Why do I found the one on the right so attractive!??

 

More non Omega content with two '81 6309s

 

I admit that the 2 have charm even if I am always amazed and attracted by such an old mint watch.

 

Omega 2872 1959 18K rose gold vs 2278 1959 gold plated
A different cases, but the same dials.

 

A pair of 105.012 with some considerable distance between them on the condition scale.
On the left is a -66CB, on the right is a -64 which at one point graced the OP's collection.
I love 'em both, but the lived-in one gets way more wrist time.

Cheers,

Definately a beast type of speedmaster:

 

A late 1920s Longines that sat in a drawer of scrap watches until the time was right. Before, and after.

 

so cool that so many have an old and a new sibling!

 

Late to this thread but here are mine.

Beauty: 2914



Beast: 135.004

 

We may need to define what is meant by "beast."

 

The beast. Before finding a donor movement.
The beauty. Close to two years later, after things came together. A Howard series 5 that I did for a friend, about 35 years ago.

 

145.022-68 i.e. Beauty versus a 145.022-69 in incredibly overpolished state and sporting a service bezel...


... but wait 'till you see the right one in better light. Pictures follow.

 

Beastly re-dial at right.

 

Two vintage Seamasters. On the left a 1962 14389 with a clean dial. On the right a 1954 2759 with dial spotting and patina (still kinda charming though!).
