    ... rectangular watches ...

    I love them, but I never bought one ... there was always something "better" around ...

    can we see some pictorial evidence of square watch love?

    The only non=round watch I have. Hamilton "DeWitt" circa 1950. It actually looks better than the pic, I've cleaned it up some since then.

    ...bought this GP @ a yard sale in Great Neck, NY for 10 bucks circa 1999. My watchmaker performed some wizardry and it's since become one of my favorites...


    Looks great with shirtsleeves

    I believe it's an Omega Marine Standard.
    Omega's second divers watch, after the omega marine.
    Which would explain the "Neptune" hand.

    Those are indeed the Neptune hands, original Omega. The model is ref CK3683, marine standard 2 with a R17.8 Inside. In fact the third divers watch, after the marine (CK679 with caliber 19.4) and marine standard (CK3635 with caliber T17 Inside). All 3 marine models are in my above post.
