    Hi,

    I just want to say thanks to @marturx for selling me this beauty. This is my first foray away from vintage Omegas and I couldn't be happier with how it looks. I know there was a lot of interest and dibsing going on in the FS post for this, but sorry guys (@Hijak, @NT931, @Mothra), I don't think I'll be letting it go for a while! I normally agonise and over-think my purchases but with this one I jumped on it right away and I'm glad I did!

    I know I don't have the best photography and lighting rig (a helpful wife with a SLR and the living room lamp - should maybe have waited for natural light!), but hopefully you can see the beautiful 2-tone dial and textured sub-dial.
