    I'm on holiday at the moment - in my own city.

    Well today I was looking at a CK 2000. I have never seen one before - even the later version, as this was, but at £32,000 I guess it will have to stay that way.

    This asking price is absolutely absurd!

    Omega made different versions of the ‘Aviator’. The CK700AD – with a 35.5 S movement. Later came the CK2000 which had either a 37.6 or 40.6 movement (with the same reference number). There was also a CK2042 with a 26.5 movement.

    Dealer Anthony Green (in London) is selling a CK2042 for £32,000 (good luck AG). He is also offering an ‘Olympic’ Cal.1131 chronograph for £5,650) – good versions of these are regularly available for £1,000 to £1,500. Form your own opinion.
    Zeitauktion in Leipzig is offering a CK700AD for €5,830 (so currently about £4,300):

    I would have thought that Achim’s (as illustrated by dsio) is also a CK700AD (but he should know!).

    That's unfortunate. Leonard McCoy sympathizes with you, all he was left with was his "Bones".

    Actually, not the McCoy I grew up knowing...
