    Sorry, not trying to overplay my hand. Just trying to make sure I have no surprises when it does come up. My learning curve on how to do this has been tremendous. Everyone has been very kind with their help. It will happen when I am comfortable with my knowledge level. It will never be as great as any of you. We are getting closer.

    On the watches from mac_omega. WOW, and DOUBLE WOW. Even I am impressed and I am not a watch guy.

    Well, that's a tidy collection. The black dial intrigues me. Thanks for the photo; can you post a link to a full high res version, for study/inspection more closely? I'm seeking to understand the plethora of variants.

    I only own a humble fraction of that. :)

    If you search the Forum there is many threads on this watch. That's how I found this thread to show you.
    Try searching " Melbourne Olympic"

    @MEugene, not quite clear over what you’re trying to accomplish here, but you are reviving a 5 year old thread and once again showing your redialed Seamaster 1956 Olympic

    You don’t know that it is a redial, or are you trying to make people here believe that it’s kosher?

    I'm actually more interested in seeing if @ONEWATCH sold his watch.

    I’m rooting for him having taken @efauser ’s advice and passed it to his grandson.

    Tough crowd!
    Hey, just a guy who loved the look of a couple watches and came to share and learn. Like we all do at some point.
    I'm not sure why you come with the tone -- is 'reviving a 5 year old thread' not the done thing around these parts? :eek: And why the 'once again showing' quip-- since if I'd done as OneWatch and mentioned the watch, the request for pics would be expected. ;)

    And, thanks, if your 'redial' comment is just meant to put me on my back foot, you've done fine. :thumbsup:
    I honestly expected a bit more of an open reception rather than this sort of 'you're not from round these parts, and your hair is too long' sort of greeting. :(

    That said, no, I came 'in peace for all etc.' Really, I'm still trying to understand the 'redial' issue and how one distinguishes these situations.

    Thanks
    MEugene

    And this is how the Lugs would have started life
