Why don't you look at the watches that are for sale in the sales section here?
There are currently 2 or 3 original manual wind jumbo Omegas that are imho reasonably priced.

Yes I mentioned that previously and I suspect our OP might not speak English as a first language so he might have not understood what I meant. Hopefully your suggestion is clearer to him than mine as I agree it's the smart move for new-to-vintage to focus their hunt in a semi-protected sales venue as ours. 馃憤

D.B. Cooper is an unusual choice of user-name for a non-US member, since I didn't think his story was particularly well-known elsewhere. But I agree it seems likely that the OP is European, based on his posts.

No, in fact I understood him very well, I also search in this forum of course, but I didn't found nothing that I liked.

Also for leave it clear I don't buy only watches for investment I buy them because I like them.
Yes, I'm not American, the nickname is because of the TV show "Prison Break"

Thank you for your help.

The best way to enjoy owning a vintage Omega is to do the research, find a watch you like in very fine original condition, be prepared to pay a bit over, and learn to love it as you get to know it. Sometimes the "expensive" watches are cheap in the end. If I may offer a piece of friendly advice, don't waste your time with Chrono24. It is possible to get a good deal there, but you have to be very knowledgable.

And hijacked an airplane, causing terror for many.

Not a role mode, IMO.
