·First, thanks to all of you for taking a break from your Speedmasters, Seasmasters and Constellations to give me your opinions on these two new (to me) watches. I've brought them both in to be serviced. I might put an ostrich strap on the Omega, as the original metal bracelet doesn't appeal to me (it was also offered with a leather strap originally). More interesting (to me, anyway) facts about these: Both have textured silver, not white, dials, as isn't obvious from my mediocre photo. The Tissot has a matte finish and domed design while the Omega has a vertically brushed finish. Both dials seem unusual for their time (the Tissot from 1971, the Omega from 1972), certainly compared to 50s and 60s standards. Also, the Omega cal. 1022 automatic movement is unusual to me. Rather than have a separate automatic winding module attached to what is essentially a manual wind movement, the automatic winding works are integrated into the movement in order to produce a thinner movement and watch. I assume all that is routine nowadays, but do any you have vintage models like these?
