    A 1940s Omega bumper 2374. The dial is beat up, and the movement needed serious restoration, but the case and crown are in very good condition. 20161107_140223.jpg
    Has a remarkable resemblance to Rolex 4498, in terms of dial layout, case size and shape, lugs etc.:

    Moved to the black strap. I have the orange, black and stainless straps. It's like having three different watches :)

    The OB changes my straps, but it might be time for me to buy a tool and do it myself.

    Thanks. Valjoux 22 in a 36mm, 18k rose gold case. I don't know the exact year but would say it's from the 40's.

    Wauw what a beauty! As a slight train/railroad nerd I throughly enjoy railroad watches. We should have a railroad thread where we can discuss favourite locomotives etc :)

    I didn't see that coming. You probably attend every gathering they have but are just too embarrassed to admit it :D Looks great though!!
