·Hello. İ just bought an omega box and couldnt find a second one. Does that make it collectible or rare? (Maybe fake😀)
This is a well known original variant, I have got one in my collection too...
Lets make the ultimate Omega box thread !

·I have the red version of this one- is yours angled edges like mine? But I do not know what came in it
The Omega Seamaster de Ville reference 14735 came in a similar box with a different interior, which was the older version of the same box that you have. So, it could have belonged to a later SMDV reference.

·The watch is mounted on gimbals. There is a hefty weight at the base (illustrated) so there’s quite a lot to support – that is done by two brass plates front & rear (so two more screws at the rear).
I don’t think this one was ever used for checking longitude! I gather they were often presentations to naval officers on graduation or some special event (as an alternative to a ‘presentation’ sextant).
I believe this is a traditional style, used by many manufacturers over the years. One of the first watches George Daniels produced as an ‘exercise’ during training was a similar item (beautiful of course).

Hi Tom! is this 24.99 or 21.29?

·I was going to bid on this gigantic box but discovered that my little dog had stuff stuck in her paws and got distracted and missed it, on the bright side she's relieved now 😀
I really needed it for utility though, decent boxed are very expensive here, I'd rather have paid $20 for this box rather than $80 for a new one 🙁

·Hello everyone,
first a short introduction to me: I've been registered here for a long time, but I wasn't very active. After I discovered my passion for Vintages a few years ago, I focused on IWC for the time being. Now the IWC box is well filled (I'm still missing a Ref. 817, but it's hard to find) and I'm increasingly interested in Omega. I'll have to get to grips with that first 😀.
My question: On its way to me is a 168.029. The watch comes with papers and box. Can you tell me if the box is suitable for the reference?
Thank you, Andreas
I would say yours is an early 1970s watch and I think this box is more beginning 80s. Not a 1972 box..

Do you know what a 145.022-69 speedy would have came in? Or if either of these boxes are it?
Interested in finding one for it.
Thanks

·I scrolled through all 26 pages and was surprised not to see this box that I have (which I believe to be correct for my Speedmaster 125).
