    This little beauty has been making the rounds at Omega Forums, and I am the latest lucky owner!

    She just arrived. Here's my first few pics:

    I think she's very photogenic, with her black dial having turned to a beautiful color that some may like to refer to as "tropical", but I will call it 'bronze'.

    The case and bracelet also have a pleasant, gently worn-over-the-years appearance that is quite appealing. Sure, she's been polished, but not overly so...

    This babes nicer than in pictures ::love::..

    Thank you, Lars!

    Very nice, even with the bracelet!

    @adi4 there is one for sale that I’m hoping someone picks up before I have a moment of weakness, I can point you to it if you’re interested.

    Same I was thinking...:cautious:...:)

    There's about a half dozen watches I still ask myself that same question... but each one has gone to a very good owner, so there is definitely some consolation in that...

    I do promise to take good care of 'er!!
