    35th Anniversary of Apollo 15 in 1971.

    Released in 2006, one year after the Gemini IV watch. Mid 2000s Omega were on a roll!

    They never really did Apollo 7, 12 or 16 a whole lot, which is sad, the 12 crew are among my favourites, Pete Conrad was an absolute legend

    :) Wow Daniel - you are on a proper roll. I think I fancy one those two speedies at some point. Do you have a favourite?

    I don't actually mean that to sound as sinister as I think it might...

    :eek: :eek:

    I think somebody's hijacked Daniel's account!

    Wasn't he the guy in mortal fear of his wife finding another new addition just a few months ago?

    :D

    Only agree if it's your kid's inheritance and not your inheritance ;)

    That is a very nice piece, one of my favorite of the LEs. Congrats, Canberra.

    I just hope she is alive and well.:unsure: . Do we know anyone near Canberra (and not connected to the AU Gov't) that can check on her?:cautious:

    I am only 32, definitely too early to be blowing the kids' inheritance! I will do that when I am older.


    Been wearing it all weekend. Really like it, but not a fan of the green lume.

    :cool:
