    hi

    It's been a while since my last Omega purchase

    I will let the pics speak for themselves ...

    It's from 1912. With Originial receipt from Louis Brant and Frere.

    I got it's from the grandson of the original purchaser! In photo! 21"' movement will add movement pics later.

    According to Omega it's the 24th piece produced !

    Good hunting

    Bill-

    Didn't you already have one of those?

    If so, now you have two.

    Congratulations! :cool:

    First off it's in bad form to count someone else collection . Secondly you happen to be incorrect .

    The first Debord I have is a special execution one of 66 made 21/24"' Debord . Plus the dial is Arabic numerals . It's a TOTALLY different animal ( ).

    At lest that is what I told my wife also ....


    Good Hunting

    Very nice, do you have a better shot of that receipt, that's really cool with the old school Omega logo at the top of it

    Congratulation, it's in an outstanding condition. The original receipt makes it exceptionnal ( you will note that I didn'´t use the ´R' word!).

    That original dial is amazing since it is over 100 years old. WOW!
