If you pay close attention, a FM can be seen on his wrist ~ 0' 59" and 5' 49" . . .

Flightmaster roll call! . . .
. . . let's see the 145.013, 145.026, and 145.036 refs in our collections. My 910 . . . . . . on Pacific Coast Highway last year. Art ...
It's very classy 70s style Omega that I wish they re-issue again like many other series.
Omega has yet to issue this series. It's very classic indeed.
Oh, I'm sure Omega will re-issue the 910 someday . . .

Remember that Ill-conceived spacemaster?
That was supposed to be the highly touted reimagining...
Not only do I remember it . . .
. . . but when I took this pic at the Omega boutique . . . . . . you were in the room. ...

Unfortunately I am not an owner
Not too long ago I was classifying myself in the "Soon" category, hunting for a 910 that would look as close to this as possible... Circumstances changed and now I'm back to "one day" status. The last one I was able to try on was this beauty for sale at a...
Pacific Coast Highway north of Malibu . . .
. . . maybe fifteen minutes drive from my place, or half an hour from mrsnak's. ;-)
Well not so lovely. She divorced me and took the watch. [nt]
Hey those were the days. Just a couple of crazy kids......

Superb FM... while I do not have one..
I like the route you are on having the FM with you dear Ark, cheers!
Late to the party
my early 145.013 delivered to Mexico in 1969 and my first owner tropical 145.026 that belonged to a famous flight test engineer ...
Sorry dear Art! Somehow I missed viewing it until today!
I feel I couldn’t miss participating with the Friendship 610: A very special watch in my collection. Cheers! ...
