Morning all, thought I'd come and join in the fun! I have a few Omega watches, a 2000/2001 Speedmaster Pro, a couple of 1970s f300's and am family custodian of my Dad's geneve...
Welcome Rex, we're pleased to have you here. Nice group of watches, especially the Speedy. Of course the other Brits here will be curious to know which region you hale from.
Thanks everybody. Just North West of London...clinging on to one of the tube stations at the end of the Metropolitan Line! The Speedmaster is my favourite...feels like a proper chunk of time on your wrist, but the hum of the f300's is captivatingly geeky. The Geneve has been around as long as I remember, love the strap, although it's not original, it was on a black alligator band, but my dad bought the mesh strap in a Jewellers on Malta during the mid 1970s...nice little genuine upgrade
Mesh has been an Omega feature for a long time, certainly nothing wrong with that at all! Welcome mate
Thanks guys. Everyone loves the Speedy...that and the ProPlof seem to be ultimate boys toys when it comes to Omega fans... Any suggestions for a future purchase? I'd love a proper waterproof Seamaster, without breaking the bank...
