Just found this site and decided to sign up. I bought an Omega Speedmaster when I was serving during the Vietnam War. It's the only thing I brought back with me, besides PTSD. Funny but true. I traded for another Omega. It seems to be a real old one. I'll post pics soon. Maybe someone can tell me how much they are worth.
Thanks for the welcome!

 

Looking forward to the pictures.

 

Welcome to the forum, Brother man!
I lucked out and was sent to Korea '71-'72.
My flagship watch is one I bought at the PX before I went home, I still got it and still wear it.
Thanks for your service and look forward to seeing your watch, wish you still had the Speedmaster, too.

 

Hey, welcome to the forum!

 

Still have the Speedmaster, plus the older one. Always loved the Speedmaster, and would never let it go.I paid a lot for it (at the time), but looking at values, it appears to have appreciated considerably.

 

Welcome to the Omegaforums.

Your name suggests to me that we may learn a lot from you here...

I hope you enjoy our company.

Not only a veteran, but also a MoU (Master of Understatement).

I'll talk to Uncle Buck and see if we can admit you to our secret Ex-Mil sub-forum.

Edit: Just saw that we share a love of two wheels, what model Indian?

This is my little baby.

First off- Thank you for your service.

Secondly welcome to OF. I’m relatively new myself. But the members are a great bunch and most have a great knowledge base of vintage watches.

 

Maybe a test membership, Jim, he might have been one of those golf course attendants or marching band members.
Let's hold off on full membership with benefits, at least until we see the watches!

Seriously, @Signguru, we are pleased to welcome you and look forward to seeing your watches and hearing their stories.

(I was afraid you traded your Speedy for the old watch)

 

Signguru, from your passenger ,I see bikers are getting older and older these days !!!!

 

Welcome to the forum, I know nothing about Speedmasters (and little more about Omega- oh yeah that happens here too) but I have to salute your sense of humor.

Talking about signs, I’m eager to see what graphic you will choose for your avatar

 

Welcome!

 

I have a few suggestions based on his username:
