First public outing for the caliber 860 ref 145.017 chrono today. Fits like a charm under the shirtsleeve!
Finally a proper "dress chrono" in the collection.

1952 Omega XL 36mm Bumper Cal.344

Caseback is marked inside 2765 - 2764 - 2771 - 3 SC

This watch was originally packed away in 1966, by the original owner, & put into long term storage.

He re discovered the watch, undisturbed, in tissue paper, last year.........47 years later !.... When rummaging through old packing cases in his loft.

I bought it from him.

My thanks to Archer, for giving me the correct nomenclature, for a replacement Omega 'escape wheel' - I eventually sourced one in Canada.

Serviced, & running perfectly now.

Why will a find like this, never happen to me!

She simply refuses to leave my wrist. I do put her away in the watch drawer, but every morning she just jumps and grabs my wrist again 🤦

First day in 8 days that I haven't had this HCB on my wrist. I do miss it, but wanted a change, being home (and having slept almost 11 hours straight last night).

Here it is at the Kona Sheraton's Hawaiian Lawn.




Wearing this Memovox this morning.
