It’s got to be the same company, with a revised logo....

Damn you, I’d just stopped thinking about it, and now...🤬

Being obsessive, I wasted a solid two hours on Friday looking for this. I did all the obvious things: reverse image searches, like image searches, searches on 60’s-80’s logos, searches for courier, air cargo, regional airlines, aircraft services, express services from that era & logos of existing companies that existed then...

Completely struck out. I suspect that since the internet is forever we’re dealing with a company that went out of business or was absorbed before 1995 or so, and never had a presence to speak of. The answer to this will come from someone recognizing that logo.

I can’t wait to have an answer. It’s driving me mad.

Just my 2c
If we cannot find any information on the logo, how about it being added later to the dial to up the value? Not unheard of.

Did you check train companies. Know Omega used to supply Australian train watches.

Just wasted another 50 minutes looking at every railway company globally that either had an H at the beginning or had a logo that looks like it could be an evolution from or relation to the OP logo. Nothing. Well, the Turkish State Railway logo definitely has the same stylization of the bird, but it's also entirely different.

Going back to work now.

Another member just casually wasting a couple hours and coming up empty handed. Go figure.

It’s probably an original prototype Hodinkee logo. Now you all feel ill we can stop thinking about it.

The answer here is just to take the graphic and register it with TESS - it can be the new OmegaForums logo ;-)

I hate you, now there are 2 logos that are driving me crazy to ID
Spent a couple of hours on this originally with zero luck and now I've been checking this thread for days because it haunts me. There are only so many Detroit Red Wing, Red Wing Boots, and Red Winged Black Birds I can look at in an image search before I go mad.

I am wondering if the OP had checked the BACK of the watch to see if there was any information about a presentation? Too simple, I know, but worth a looksee.

Another approach is to try and get the movement number and request an extract of the archives; if you know where it was first sold that might narrow the search down a bit.
