Hi all, this is my first post on the forum. Two weeks ago I got my first Omega watch, a black Planet Ocean 43.5mm. I saved up for over two years for the watch and I'm really happy with it. That led me to look up something regarding Omega, which took me to this forum, and here I am.

Other than watches, I drink a lot of coffee, play the bass decently and the violin very badly, and like doing Jeep stuff. Um, what else...ah, my favorite robot is Tom Servo from MST3K. Other than that, I am a pretty boring guy. Pleasure to meet you all!

Welcome and congratulations on your recent purchase! No doubt saving your money for over two years makes your new Omega even more special. I appreciate your excitement and enthusiasm.

The hot weather has brought the classic cars out. Here are a few I have spotted in the last couple of days on my jaunt around the country.

OMG...that is so incredibly amazing. It's only one year off from my birth year (1967) and has orange indices like the SSSP uniforms! Time to start another 2-year watch fund!
Just be prepared to navigate that minefield as there are lots of things to be aware of/pay attention to.

There is a modern rendition of it, known as the ST2. It is limited edition and while it commands a decent price, it’s significantly less than the vintage “Ultraman”.
