    Yes. In the USA they are $400 plus tax!

    This one came from my AD in the UK.

    I think you should raffle it off to one OMEGA Forums member. :D

    When I read that and hear that most of you own it then I question if I am really a WIS......

    What I mean is that I couldn't imagine spending $400 on a book about the history of a watch brand (I'm sure it is a great book and a lovely present though - please don't take offence).

    You're allowed to spend money in other directions. Really, I said so! If you want to do vintage Omega though, this book is practically a necessity.

    No doubt. But I am trying to get another watch first.

    The watch is a Submariner 114060. But the OMEGA book is on my list too. Until I own it I will pop up over your shoulder from time to time for information.

    I worked on the basis that if it helped me avoid buying one redial or franken it would pay for itself.Seems to be working so far...
