I’m new to the forum and am coming to (vintage) Omega from an interest in vintage Seiko so I was really pleased to see this section of the forum and the great examples owned by forum members. I have to say while Seiko are a bit of a sleeper choice compared to Omega, you lot have some great examples. Very interested in the OP’s 6145-8050 in blue/grey with an original bracelet - that’s a grail watch for me.

Hi and welcome. I also spent some years with vintage Seiko before stepping into Omega, you will find many big time Omega collectors here who also collect Seiko. I recently sold another 6145-8050 but not on the bracelet. Its hard to find the bracelet, also the faceted crystal is often chipped so watch for that.
Follow the "recommended Vintage Omega on Ebay" thread where Sr Mod lists vetted auctions on EB- good way to pick up info, as well as the many other threads in vintage Discussion threads. Stick around!

Many thanks for the kind welcome, and I’ll definitely keep an eye out on the eBay thread for the elusive black-dialled gold cap jumbo I’m aspiring to! I saw there’s also a similar thread for Seiko which is interesting. It seems orientated toward divers watches but I’m not sure if that is deliberate or just because that’s what’s been commented on so far….?
