I should also thank a few guys for their photos and assistance, @MSNWatch @duffy7 @Vanallard @mac_omega @Bill Sohne and if there are any others I’ve overlooked I’m sure they’ll remind me. Lots of really great examples of this reference on the forum and thankfully great examples of all three known dial types.

Thanks guys that really means a lot, we’re going to try a few different things and covering some different topics to see what hits and what misses over the coming weeks, aiming to release about two per week on Tuesday and Thursday evening my time.

These are all just wonderful watches, and the original write up is excellent and very interesting/informative. I love this era and style of Omega watches - have a couple cool stainless pieces, but would love to pick one up in solid gold one day.
