Got this 1 out of a friends car ashtray last year or so for $25.00 USD..



Found an original advert. Amazing how different the prices for these old gems go for nowadays.



Wow Daddy, sweet!
Any chance of seeing it on the private sales section at $75? 馃槈馃槜

Thanks Mark,

He said it had been in his car ashtray for years from the original owner of the car he purchased it from, until he started working here he never bothered with it until he found out I was a "watch guy".He asked me if I wanted to buy it for $25.00. @ the time I had no idea what it was (as the crystal was in very poor state couldn't read the dial) just liked the color scheme.Took some Poly Watch to it & viola this is the result.
It still isn't worth much but it's a looker & in pretty outstanding condition for it's age

Look @ this Bad A$$ GMT hand

? you mean originally it didn't sell well for Omega ? I don't see how either.
I think it's 1 of Omegas best, that & the dog leg Pie Pan. Both are a must have for me. 1 day I will have both.

On my way out for beer with the boys.

Seamaster 30 and late evening sun. Doesn't get much better. This is one of the prettiest watches ever made.

Also notice the two headlights. Like a baws! 馃槑
