Gorgeous design - I've been tempted by one of these myself!

You're not helping me keep my resolve. If you buy it, that's one less on the market to tempt me. ;-)
(Great size for your wrist, I might add.)

To pull the trigger...?

Happened across this Omega 1894 Homage today as I took my beloved Minerva Pythagore to a friend for repair (broken mainspring). No box or papers, but...mighty tempting... Thoughts? Best E. ...

Thanks for sharing the photo.
I've owned one of these :-)

I bought one NIB from an estate liquidator in Italy. I got lucky and didn't get scammed. It was areal treat. I was able to source the correct steel blue hands from Otto Frei. Just me, but they sure looked good with the navy blue gator strap I wore it with...

If you walk in a room and you can't spot the sucker; you're the sucker ;-)

The 1894 is one of, if not . . .

. . . the , most compelling Omegas of the last twenty five years. There's one on eBay now located in Japan that might well find its way to my collection in the near future. Similar, but with deep blue dial treatment . . . the monotone dial on the one you'...
I don't think they play pool, but I'll ask ;-)

Do you remember walking me through this crazy purchase I made years ago? If you'll recall, big risk and an even better savings. I'm almost embarrassed to say what I paid ;-)
Don’t tell us ...

It would only be depressing news ;-(
Oh, I remember that episode well, Miki . . .

. . . if I recall correctly, your 1894 was listed on Chrono24 (or was it eBay?) under a title where no one looking for an Homage would find it. We were probably the only two guys in the world aware that a NIB example was still available, twenty years afte...
I'll have to take a look...

Not to worry, I just blew my paper on a one owner Lange 1815 Up&Down. One dress up day/night watch is more than enough these days :-(
Aha!

Interesting...this one, without box or papers, is being offered at $7k. I’ve hesitated as I thought it was too much...any ideas on market value? Best E.
Thanks...

We’ll take it offline but afraid I agree... Best E.
Not even a question

Of course the Minerva has to be repaired and put back into rotation. It’s not particularly valuable but was a gift from my parents on my 21st birthday, which I chose after much research...it has more sentimental value than any other watch I have, except —...
superior watches

A good reason to baby your watches.

Super classy
Really sweet dial

And the movement is great - really original as a proposition. If you need some gold in your life, definitely go for it!
LOL!!!
