    Hello Omega fans,

    Paul here, a new member from sunny New Zealand.

    Vintage watches seduced me about 20 years back and it all started with Omega.
    A few deviations along the way but fast-track to 2015 and a soft spot for Omega still remains.

    I'll look forward to participating and am happy to share a few pics if / when I'm permitted.

    Cheers, Paul

    Welcome from rainy England, Paul.

    Pictures are more than welcome, in fact, if you have got a 2915, they are obligatory.

    Collectively, we can't think without pictures.

    Nothing as salubrious as a 2915 sorry :(

    The simple Seamaster with deco-esque 6-9-12 markers is a firm favourite of mine
    And I've always pondered on the significance .... or not ... of the red star on the larger cased oldie.
    Just garden variety Omegas and roughly presented but here they ...

    The red star is Argentinian cased, isn't it?

    Welcome Paul, another Down-Under number to balance the equation.

    Nice little group of Omegas. ::love::

    We need a close-up of the red star, off you go, chop chop.

    Yea I stopped watching the Rugby after John Eales left, cricket is a much better sport at the moment.

    Cool set you have there @GMTKiwi!
