Today my uncle Peter passed away. It was him who got me into Omega when he showed me his one in the 1980s from recollection it looked a bit like an AT does today but not as colourful. I reminded him two weeks ago when he was in hospital about his Omega, he told me unfortunately it was lost stolen about ten years ago. So today at his house I was wearing my speedy in the same room he showed me his Omega 30 years before when I was in school. I did not feel like taking pics of my wrist today so here is a pic from a week ago when I was wearing the same clothes.

RIP uncle Peter 1942-2015

This one, I got up one night a couple of years back to take my Daughter to the toilet. Then I looked up the forum and someone posted it on the eBay recommendation of UG so I made a random offer at 3 in the morning and yep it came to me....

Love the Sunday markers on this one... a very unusual feature. Add me to the DIBS list please. 👍
