    Could be. Not a sought after model by more experienced collectors, but it would be a good starter vintage Omega.

    Hi

    I would suggest this one is just about at full value at £3750 GBP (well for me at least !) - I think the dial is probably ok , although that handset needs looking at & a Service should be priced in....always nice to have the bracelet & end pieces and of course the Papers are a bonus !

    I'll be interested to see where this ends up....

    Best - Neil

    Looks like the black paint on top of the markers have faded.

    Okay, nobody said it was perfect. Besides, that can be fixed if it drives you nuts:

    From Salisbury. Probably a dirty hippy or a traveler.

    They try to pass off hamburgers as steaks there by just putting gravy on them without the bun, so beware. :p

    But they're good hamburgers, especially the ones with a little horsemeat in them.

    One of my best friends lived in Winterbourne Stoke, which is right down the road a few miles from Salisbury and probably the closest actual town to Stonehenge. He had LOTS of stories about dirty hippies and travelers. His address in Winterbourne Stoke was "the corner house"; I sent him mail there. You have to love rural England. (He grew up there, lived in the US from the age of 16 to 35, but went back to England after his Unfortunate Incident.)

    No Hippies when I was there last, just some Jackdaws. :D

    It's a beautiful place. There's a fence around it now, isn't there?

    Yes but nothing super ugly , it is a low chain and there are walks people must use. Otherwise people are destructive little creatures.:(

    I have to admit I'd like to have a little chunk of it. (Just kidding. Sort of.)

    Incoming - lucky for me everyone must have already had one, so there was no competition on the bid.
