·There are still bargains out there... just takes some hunting. 😀
X3.....locally found. it's a 145.026. Unknow history
Needs case refinishing, "sunburst" finishing was screwed. Sand paper in circular motion was used by previous owner to minimize some "nicks".
Overdue for service.

·Sand paper in circular motion was used by previous owner
Reminds me of that one guy a few months back who found his dads (or gramps, can’t remember) 105.012 on some funky hippy bangle-acelet and then proceeded to cluelessly open it. When asked how he got it opened (as there were fresh idiot marks) he replied : “I used a hammer, a screwdriver and my fingers”
(Which I DIBS as the text under my avatar if I ever earn enough brownie points for text under my avatar)

·Noticed that the long anticipated " Flightmaster Only " book has been finished, just in time ready for Baselworld 2018...
Curious to learn what it brings in a chapter entitled " Famous Aviators and the Ultimate Destination of a Tool-watch: Russian Space Adventures "
For those interested... I already posted some rarely seen spaceflight pictures showing the Flightmaster pilot watch in action:

·Aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrggghhhh! Why did I open this thread. I've wanted an original unpolished 911 for a long time and keep managing to miss them when they come up. After posting a WTB on TZ-UK I was offered a fully restored one and a polished one. And then spent my money on a Speedy 125.

·July 1976 the Soyuz 21 crew, cosmonauts Boris Volynov and Vitali Zholobov, at the foot of the launchpad in Baikonour.
Zholobov clearly wore an Omega Flightmaster on his left forearm in addition to his wrist watch...

·I don't have the Flightmaster Only book yet but I wonder if the best Flightmaster & Speedmaster photo ever made it into the book...
Of course I do have all Russian crewphotos involving Omega watches of any kind 😁
STS-46 suitup shows Italian astronaut Malerba ready to get into the astrovan towards the launchpad where space shuttle Atlantis awaits...
