Evening switch! Wearing the Rolex Oyster Date (I think 1970's...) my Father gifted me in honor of his birthday. Seldom worn, two-tone SS case with 14K bezel. Dial is a beautiful bronze with a faint sunburst, sun-spot-patina on the dial from 20+ years of UV exposure in the high plains SW desert of the US!
Tonight I鈥檓 watching the secret day-wheel language letter go by on my cal 1045 Speedmaster 376.0822.
See the small D above the N in SON?
Means it鈥檚 German (Deutch). The other language letters for several Lemania/Omega calibers of this era are:
A for English (Anglais)
E for Spanish (Espagnol)
F for French
P for Portuguese
I for Italian
H for Dutch (Hollandais)
S for Swedish
L for Finnish (why L for this language still baffles me)
If you look for it on one of your day wheel watches, be sure to go through 2 weeks because there are two weeks of days to go around the full wheel but only one secret letter. YaY!
