This for the morning until the housework starts. Think I need a maid so that I don't waste time cleaning and can dedicate more time to watches
An "Americano" is a shot of espresso with hot water added after brewing. If the water isn't added afterwards, but instead pulled through the espresso machine in one go, it's a "Caffé Lungo", which isn't as nice, as a lot of the bitter components of the coffee grounds are extracted into the coffee, which isn't the case when the brewing process is shorter.

Nice watch yourself! Mine's a Cal 354 bumper from 1952 with a case ref of 2494-4/2657 It measures around 36.5mm excluding the crown, obviously hardly a 'jumbo' by today's standards but seems to wear a lot bigger than my standard Seamasters Could be hitting the Private sales forum in a couple of weeks if I can finally make my mind up to let a few watches go to fund a 'new' Omega!
Bought this little diver A) because I like the dial B) it was inexpensive enough and the movement is basic enough I will attempt to service it myself. I like the way it wears...
