I do like the extract but that is not the real value overall. That is why I posted here. My desire for a birth watch easily blinds me to reality. But you guys could care less in that aspect and have a critical eye to the reality of the time piece. I greatly appreciate that and that has helped me decide to pass. There may not be another one show up this close to my birthday, but I won't be too disappointed down the road knowing I spent a bunch of money just to scratch an itch that will go away.
Good choice- although not an expert-this is not an attractive watch (sorry if the owner is on this forum- she just ain’t pretty). These go for too much money to be blinded to the esthetics-it’s the primary reasons why we buy them.

that's a major omission on this watch. the incorrect case. probably the previous owner or the one before him replaced the case without knowing the essential character of the faceted lugs. when i bought mine in 2008, i dint even notice the facets, while all i wanted was a premoon 321. my friends even suspected that my 321 watch was not original because they found the case with unusual lines and larger in size. at that time, there was no reference nor review available on the net to confirm my cb66, even from the concluded omegamania. i held on to it anyway, and not long after, it appeared that mine is a rare cb66 in a very limited production.
