Good looking movements are not normally associated with Omega but I think they are changing. [nt]
No message body
Not a lot of posts with this nice view...
Of the Apollo 11 Moonshine...worth showcasing again. Do you think Omega has shown improvements with the looks of these newer movements? HAGWE ...
Thanks my friend...I am waiting for the 321 Ed White so I can make a comparison...
From official pictures that 321 also looks good.
+1 I was determined to get this one
as it is obv much more appealing than any Daytonas. but then Omega got 321 back just 5-6months after this release. Now I keep thinking why wud they bungle up 50th Special and not put 321 in there. It wud have been a real deal (reissue). Doesn't take away....
The new 321 is taking much longer to deliver since it’s limited production ...
Since each is assembled by the same watch maker and the COVID shutdown has limit their production even further. To put them in the Apollo’s will really delay delivery. I’m expecting mine anytime soon, 2nd one in the boutique....1st one only arrived last m...
For 45 years young....this should be a good choice :)
Apollo 13th 45th anniversary. ...
amazing photo ! thank you :)
wonderful watch. Had the pleasure to see it and try it in person
If 'they' were really paying attention to us . . .
. . . the 60th Rail would've had a manual-winding movement. 😉
Lol... same here...but wait, it’s a bull market and indexes are hitting records, no???
Where’s all the money went and from? Oh...it went to the top 0.1%
That's the sensible reason, Miki . . .
. . . the not-so-sensible reason is that's the year I graduated high school. And I still want a '74 'Cuda!
Ah, but in my care, Miki, it would get . . .
. . . all the suspension, brake, and drive-train upgrades imaginable.
I'd rather build up the 360 . . .
. . . to make roughly a horse per cube at 5000 rpm and back it up with a Passon 5-speed transmission. Nothing wild, it's gotta be tractable. Now, if we're talking rods, then a 392 hemi with four Weber downdrafts would be just the ticket!
Everybody wants a Hemi 'Cuda . . .
. . . 'cause they're wicked cool. They're also impractical. Much better to have a small block with five gears that'll drive almost as quick but way less stress. The best option would be a '70 AAR 'Cuda . . . . . . but they're priced up in the stratosphere...
I'll try to find video of Dan Gurney's AAR 'Cuda racing . . .
. . . in the Trans-Am series when I'm back home later today, Captain.
Here's video of an AAR handling curves . . .
. . . Down Under: Maybe four years ago driving east on the 118 freeway, I caught a glimpse of an identical orange AAR headed west. Turned my head and damn near snapped it off!
I definitely think the caliber 3861 is a visual improvement over the 1861 Raymond and from the specs, it seems to be an improvement technically as well. I could elaborate further but...
don't think it is necessary to do so unless someone asks. Comparing a 3861 to a 321 would be interesting to see and I will do so soon as I got a surprise incoming this week 😉
Nice! Congrats in advance....looking forward to seeing your surprise this week, Justin...
My local OB has the rare Pt version 321 but I'm just waiting for the Ed White...which should also be soon.
Thanks Raymond. Had a chance to also see the PT 321 which is a stunner but just could not get my head around a PT Speedmaster so passed...
I am 1st on the list at my Omega boutique and they informed me to come by and pick up something they just got in for me so will do so once I can free up some time. Will definitely post some photos once I get the chance 😁😉
