First steps into vintage Omega - 2777-1
It has been many months now that I have hunted for my first vintage Omega. Well, strictly speaking I have owned a vintage Omega once before but that was some time ago and before I really became hooked by collecting watches. I have spent quite some time ev...
Bravo, my friend. Can't wait to see more pictures.
Another one which is in my wish list... For a while, now. Bravo! Best, Nicolas
Great addition, Baron! :)
Congrats, you really got the Omega virus! :) A brand I am also currently working on (not MIL). Hopefully I will be able to show you something before the year end.... Best, my friend Blomman
Beautiful ...
Welcome to the glorious Omega world. Now you need two Speedmaster. One, vintage, to placate your vintage love. Another, Co Axial, to mark your hours, with accuracy and, at the same time, as a homage to George Daniels. Cheers, Nilo
Interesting thinking....

Let's see if you're as thankful . . .
. . . after three Omegas inevitably become three dozen. :-) PS - welcome to the club!
Hello Joe! Congrats on your first step on the Vintage Omega world...
... and with a beautiful example you have found. I feel now ... it will be unavoidable your search for a vintage Speedy too. Or a 1940´s Chronometre... or some of the classic Sea Master 300 divers... or.... I have already found in Omega another interestin...
Damn You Are Good !!!!!!
....Baron. No matter how hard I try I do not have clue what you are talking about :). Must be the watch collectors jargon, I am still in an infancy stage. Love the Omega; nicely preserved. Regards Edward
I meant it more as a compliment...
on your familiarity of watch colectors jargon, which I am just learning. It was more about me not folowing on the line of thought, and misanderstanding the comparision of Omega to Rolex, as well as I could not comprehend the stages . Now I see what you me...
