First generation Planet Ocean
I like it even more now that the next generation has came out. Happy Holidays! René ...
Rene, how close are you to the equator? I think it’s rotation of the earth at the Winter Solstice time, status of the volcano, etc.
I can see clearly the (invisible) lines of force that rotate your pictures It’s explained clearly here: I’m sure you know this native language form?? 😅 Mike ...
Hello dear Miguel!
Pretty close, indeed!!! Also very close to a volcano… Now I know the reason’s why!!! Hmmmmm… let me read the native language… so… it seems that the thermites and the bats are in part guilty! 😉 Very nice painting by the way! Best. René
Work of an acquaintance in Cuernevaca -- beads in wax art
The indigenous name Huichol or close to that. The artist ...
Wow, Wow!!!
He lives in Cuernavaca, but he is definitely Huichol! Huicholes are masters in bead woodwork. They also make beautiful masks and wooden animals covered in beads. They project their worldview in their beautiful art. Will you visit soon, Mike? Thanks for sh...
No travel plans anytime soon
Our friend who owns so many of Oscar’s pieces doesn’t come back to the States anymore, so we have lost touch. Here’s one of the Huichol animals heading for the guacamole … ...
How’s she not going to have so many pieces?
If they are beautiful!!! It looks like if the jaguar is going to take a big bite of the guacamole! Merry Christmas dear Miguel!
Of course, CR.
Another of the features that I love of the original Planet Ocean. Thanks for pointing it! I can see you also wear the bracelet with the half link. Best. René
Oh! I forgot about the half-link.
I didn't remember how/when I got that, so I searched my email and found a 2007 email exchange with the watchmaker who repairs my quartz Omegas. This was back when people could easily order parts from Omega, and I used to ask him to get me extra gaskets, p...
Ohh! I remember those times!
Now it gets harder to get original spare parts. Someday I would like to get the original Milanese mesh bracelet that also came with this model. Enjoy it in the best health and Merry Christmas! René
Hello and thanks for your comment, Aquaracer1!
Some of us prefer the original version for several reasons like case’s shape, height of the watch, how it looks on the wrist. What are the characteristics you like more? Best regards and Merry Christmas! René
This is a time when
Omega sports watches were thinner with less gimmicks. Everything you need , nothing you don’t. I love the open 6 and 9 printed in white on the dial, along with the simple layout, text and bezel. Personally I like this case shape far more than the 2025 rel...
Well my friend, you just pointed, again,
Several or the characteristics that I also like very much: open 6 and 9, thinness, nothing that wasn’t needed. I also like the matt dial, the black date disk, the case shape, the domed crystal and those beautiful twisted lugs. And I also like very much th...
Thanks for joining me, Jan!
I see you’re enjoying your with a nice rubber strap. It looks so good on you! Thanks for sharing. René
Hello dear Blau!
I concur with you. When I first saw it, I fell immediately in love with it. Thanks for looking and Merry Christmas! René
Booom!!! Well Myles…
I must say the bigger brother looks very good on you! In fact when I went to shop mine, I spent easily two hours trying both just to make sure I was choosing the best size for me. My mind told me: go bigger, but at the end my heart went with the smaller o...
Every time the subject of 42 vs 45 comes up, this . . .
. . . comes to mind. 😳 Me? I'm a . . . . . . Sophia guy. 🫣 ...
Yeah, me too!!!
But I really had a lot of thoughts (and looks) for Jayne (before I chose Sophia)!!! Best, my dear Art. René
