    Friends...I am new in this forum and allow me to share completion of my old omega.

    I have this omega diver 120m ref.166.088 already for 4 years from friend in TimeZone and just recently have a spirit to bring it back to its glory.
    Repolished the casing locally and getting the crystal # TN 5192 with help of my friend T from USA.

    Here is photo before..as the casing over polished and scartches on the crystal.

    Here is the casing after re-finishing, restoring the sunburst finish.

    After waiting for almost 2 months, finally completed and I am very pleased with the result.

    Apologized for bad photos as only taken with my smartphone.
    Thank you
    Joe

    Looks much, much better now :thumbsup: A lot of those 70´s cases got polished down so heavily and it never looks good when the sunburst pattern has been completely buffed away.
