Opinion on a Omega 30T2 military watch

Finally got around to taking this photo.
might as well post it here as anywhere. (should go in the addiction thread.)

I got the PC balance bridge. Do not know if it will work since it has shock jewel, and the non PC plate has no shock protection. I grabbed the bridge within an hour of it being listed. If nothing else it makes the movement look more complete.

Have not really looked much at the dial. It looks passable.

Still no midcase. So this is really an art project. Do enjoy looking at it. I really like these movements. I think there is another listed for about the same in a more complete state. So I could have waited. I do not think that has sold yet.

I think this is a FOMO watch as there have been a number of threads like this. So I jumped on it when I could. I have a case for a 26.5 T3, which one is listed at twice the price. Yet I went for this one as the cheaper option.

Should know better after 35 years. I did go cold turkey for 18 of them while collecting pipe organs.

So I can say no -- at least temporally or so I keep telling myself.
Wow. You said you already have a case. Does that mean you completed the project and assembled all the parts ?

This is beautiful. Thank-you for sharing.

No midcase for the 30T2 have a case no movement for the 26.5T3. So no I do not have a case.

Mostly I collect parts and information. It is easy to get addicted to information overload.

If we were still doing captions for members, this might be a good one.

I guess we are in the sane boat then.

Has everyone gone collective insane collecting Omega/Vintage watches . Or rather trying to restore them ?
Yep pretty much. For me I restore what comes my way but I have a soft spot for vintage omega and tissot.

If it's a watch and it's broken, it gets fixed.
Love the attitude. The thread needed this positive attitude.
