Nice one Thomas.........
I had a similar one until last year when I let it go - though I've still got my 18kt 168.5004 which is one of the most favoured in my collection - the design is so neat and subtle that it is difficult to improve IMHO. Perhaps the 167.005 dogleg case with a piepan dial is a shade nicer but it's a close run thing.
There is some confusion whether 168.004 was a hidden crown or a semi-hidden crown watch - yours is definitely hidden though!!
A beautiful watch and in such lovely condition - you are lucky
Cheers

New design by Omega
With the 168.004, Omega has come up with a new design that focused on the dial only. The lugs were made very small and the crown was hidden in the case. The dial was made much larger than older models and looks big on your wrist. The only problem that I h...
Great to see these side-by-side...
...it did occur to me that the hidden crown would be tough to set. I have an older Seiko diver (6139-7100) with a recessed crown that also is not the easiest to turn....
congratulations, its a lovely connie, but i am biased
as i have one myself. only thing with mine is that the crown sticks out a bit so is probably the incorrect one. no ones ever mentioned it being an incorrect crown so its possible it is right, but is just a different style. nice watches which suit a beads ...
