Omega

. . . some like chronometers. My latest Omega chronometer, a ~ '45 30T2SCrg, was dropped off at my watchmaker's today. To put it mildly, it's not in good shape at the moment. The balance . . . . . . is 'out of round', with a visible wobble. Fingers crosse...  

of the other side. Always exciting to get a look at one of these classics. Darren

. . . and without access to my files at the moment, Darren. I've only a few images altogether, none really good; one was posted on Wrist Scan a few weeks ago. I trust you're enjoying your recent acquisition immensely! Art

. . . that will have to tide me over until it returns from service. Art ...  

Best you send it my way ;-) Here's hoping for a good "return". Miki

I hope the movement will be saved

. . . as well as bad, Jeff. First, the bad. The balance wheel has been botched beyond repair by a previous watchmaker. The staff and hairspring are fine, but the wheel can't be salvaged. The good news is that I've been able to source two complete balance ... 

Love these RG Chronometres, I hope some day to find one :-) Best Thomas

. . . doesn't include one, Thomas. As my kindergarten teacher used to say: "Priorities, Art, priorities!" :-)

Sadly i cant buy all the watches i want, and i have a hard time to part with the ones i have. Therefore i have all to many Omega's. Om my wishlist is RG's, Railmaster, SM300, Ranchero's. and many more :-) But then i can look forward to find these :-) The ... 

Looking forward to the final outcome! Here is mine with a little more patina. :-) ...  

. . . than a latte! Nice to see yours, Kyle; it was recognized as WotW a while back, no? Best, Art
