    Besides being a quality watchmaker Omega has been very prolific with their designs.
    I buy my watches mostly in the "wild" where I "pull the trigger" while the watch is in my hands.
    Truly I have lost count of how many I have already and try to be more selective when buying watches anymore.
    When I saw this one I just had to buy it. A subsequent search on the Internet revealed that the watch is quite uncommon.
    It has a larger presence on the wrist than many Omegas of it's vintage.

    Leather would be nice but the vintage jubilee is a statement on itself. Enjoy your watch!

    It did occur to me as well but the bracelet is nice and very comfortable.
