·Today, I am unable to answer the question as to which vintage Omega I am wearing. I’m actually wearing two, as I do on most days.
My choices for today are my 28-year old Speedmaster, this one not being the numbered one commemorating the Apollo XI landing on the moon. But to the best of my knowledge, it is the same as the numbered edition. This one has the crystal back and the gold colour movement.
The other one is a “survivor”. A type of watch that many look down on. This one came to me after having been almost demolished by the previous owner. Caliber 351 bumper automatic, replacement Omega case, dial and hour hand from a donor Omega, hand made case clamp, new mainspring, and recondition. Crown is generic. Who among us doesn’t have room for at least one survivor. Good runner, and sweat equity adds value.

·This one. Jumbo (38 mm), caliber 266, 20 micron gold filled case, rose gold. Circa 1950. Crown is not original, but the rest is completely original. I am the second owner. Acquired it about 15 years ago.
Beautiful watch thak you for sharing. What is the reference number? If you do not mind.

·I picked this up a few years ago with no info, but thought it looked ok for less than 200 GBP. I wear it infrequently, but like the understated simplicity.
It's a manual wind, but beyond that (having never opened it up) I'm not expert enough to know quite what it is. Any thoughts?

·This one today..Omega 2383-4 from mid 40s.,,and who knows maybe tomorrow too! I think it’s pretty much perfect in an imperfect kind of way.
