    Got a bonus, surprise with this cal 351 "RG"! I've never seen a certificate like this before. It's dated 29 May, 1952. That's got to be an extremely early chronometre certificate! (Thanks to everyone for not making fun of my poor pictures.)

    Nope, clearly a cal. 352 - the certificate says so and the movement is correct.

    Missed that one - how much did it go for? Dial looks like it is a repaint though.

    $600, I knew the dial was not original. I had to go for it...just don't see that many RG's. Like I said, the certificate was a bonus. Has anyone here seen an Omega certificate this early? Wasn't the Centenary around '48?
