What's this from....or is it just very tired!.
That's from the late 1980s/early 1990s "Significant Moments".

The outer box looks like this:-

and my inner box has faired even less well

Mark 4.5

Is the box original to the watch? or, put another way, is this box correct for this watch?.

The first of this type grey boxes dont have ‘Significant moments’ on the Outer box.

Hi Kingsrider,

sorry for late reply, noticed your question just now.

Yes, this was the original box the Mark came along. Don't know if it was standard that days but bought it as a fullfull set from the heir of the original owner, who was gifted with by his wifey at christmas in 1980 😀

I thought its time for me to contribute as well. Been enjoying all your photos so far and I thank you for taking the time to share them.
Here are a few boxes from the crapload 🤦 I have that are somewhat more interesting.

Anyone knows whats this for a box?

As it is listed as a "silver plated" box it will not be the common Connie box - maybe a different contract box...

I do not own a box like that, but I have seen them. Probably originally housed something like a Ref. 2517 like this:

The boxes for 30 Rg chronometers are much shorter.

Hi exerts,

as I did not get any response in my regular post I try it also here...

what do we have here?

It looks like an early Speedy/Railmaster box but it is lacking the Omega wording on top (below the seahorse)

Furher it is lacking the Omega logo on the front side...



The insert does not look correct either - it looks like a DIY replacement...

Is this a legitimate early Speedmaster/Railmaster box? Or is it a fake?

Or is it the famed "P" box? 😜
