Seamaster Deville - recent purchase
Apr 04, 2010,11:19 AM
As some of you know my home was broken into a few weeks ago - and three of my Omegas were stolen. I've had a lot of support from many of you here, for which I'm really grateful.
The two that hurt most were the Black Dial Pie-Pan Constellation that I bought at Omegamania, and a limited edition Co-axial Skeleton.
They will both take some replacing - but I saw a wonderful vintage Omega at a small vintage store in London's Colombia Rd market last weekend that is helping make up for the loss.
I'm no expert and I usually don't particularly like metal bracelets - but the combination really works for me here.
Here are a couple of poor pictures.
I think the watch is mid 60s - and the seller says the movement is in wonderful shape. Is the bracelet original to the watch?
