I had the pleasure of adding a beautiful 1969 Mark 2 to close out 2021. The patina on the indices is stunning and comes with Extract from the Archives from Omega and a fresh service from Omega as well.

I have owned the latest Racing Dial Mark 2 but found it too cumbersome and the weight just felt off, but this Mark 2 has much better proportions.

This piece is a keeper and will stay in the collection for a very, very long time😀

Happy New Year All!

Nice, we need to compare. I started my first thread trying to sort out my Mk2 racing dial and you are the first to come close in movement number to mine that I have come across to date. Mine is a 26xxxxxx. Love that your case hasn't been restored. Personally like it much better that way.

Couldn't agree more!! They are simply beautiful watches 😀

Very nice, but that case looks like its had a bit of polishing in its history.

Yes I believe had a light polish during the Omega service. I am looking at taking to an Omega specialist here in Australia to get the Sunburst finish re-applied.

Nice watch. I love these models. It’s going to be an absolute stunner with fresh sunburst finish.

Have Adam Lewis in Perth do the refinishing, it'll be back to factory specifications.

That's exactly who I have in mind and no one else😀

Lovely, big fan of the Mk2, wear mine often. That's a nice one and once correctly refinished it'll be stunning, dial is perfect.

Many congratulations!

That is a very nice Mark II!
A refinish should see it ready for another 50 years service.
