.... it to be an invite from the local Omega boutique to some event, but it’s actually the new format of the extracts. It has lost some of its style. It’s a bit flimsy, but it’s ok. Cheers, HSTE ...

Mine has the „OXG“ but it is „unadjusted“ which - as of 1965 - is a legit combo .....

....whereas up to 1965 „OXG“ seems to have been mandatorily combined with „adjusted to two positions“. Cheers, HSTE

....depending on how we use it. I suppose we basically pay (120 CHF - 110 EUR - 120 USD) for the valid Omega archive information . This is today also provided in .pdf file format to a possible Omega customer account. However we have lost something in docu...
