    Do it! What a beautiful location, but it seems you have not enough snow for skiing ;)

    Skiing with an Omega is a long habit. There are some old precedents :

    It was called Euroos on the Italian market, here in a 1939 Italian catalog :

    Another one I have, with the same dial (unfortunately it was damaged by washing too heavily and 'restored' by the former owner. Well, at least part of the dial is original......):

    Thanks for the info! I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for one. Would you know how much they would range from? Not much info online that I can find.

    The snow is perfect! They say it hasn't snowed like this since 2012. All lifts were open!
