    I applied for my extract on 19th October 2017 and it arrived today 27th October 2017 - so 8 days from order to receiving it! That surely must be classed as excellent service - especially as I am in the UK and it came from Switzerland. The extract confirmed that my 1967 SM300 was delivered to the British army and replaced a previous extract from the time when they didn't give this information, so I'm very pleased - its obviously a W10 marked caseback and has fixed bars.

    Cute! But watch collectors also value originality.

    Those are not boobs @M'Bob . Those are plastic bubbles. My friend Toni has bought a new sweater in which she keeps genuine 36J boobs that she grew all by herself.:thumbsup: Yes and the woman is 4 feet 10 inches tall! Oh and she is very keen on Omega watches as well.

    Lovely. T dial would command a higher premium however...

    I'm fortunate that Ive also got a (T) dial version, produced on the same day in 1967 and only 152 digits apart on the serial numbers. I agree the T dials tend to sell for more.
