I have one of these, great watches. Your pics of the book are a little out of context, what is the publication? Is it by the MWO guys? Only fair to give credit! Here is a pic of mine that @Mitka our contributing top draw UK based watchmaker took when fettling mine.

I have what I believe to be one of the original, 6 compartment, Omega supply boxes for the ref 2292 6B/159, won't ever fill it with watches but it's a nice bit of period design.

That is fantastic mate what a nice thing to see, that stuff is like gold dust I鈥檝e never seen it, I have heard of a steel version selling in the box but never see it.

Have you got any other information old photos of the steel 6b ?

Hi Joe, the box was discussed a little over on MWR, quite informative. https://www.mwrforum.net/forums/sho...3-6-watch-head-supply-box&highlight=omega+box
And, as you might expect, Roddy has had a couple of boxes the same but he sold them on along with fabulous examples of the watches, also through the PX on MWR.
hi mate as soon as you showed me yours I went straight to mwr and see yours and roddys, he told me he sold one with the 6b, you can guess where I got my steel 6b from lol he鈥檚 a top bloke
