Omega Pre Bond love
Jan 14, 2022,15:44 PM
Just felt a huge nostalgia towards this beautiful piece, equipping my wrist today. It is my caliber Omega 1111 automatic movement equipped, Prebond. It has the "Galaxy Dial", a regular black dial which has seen better days, but through servicing or something else has resulted in this dial that comes off like a Galaxy with stars in the sky.
Out of all my watches, this piece fits the best, I can't believe Omega dropped this bracelet because it's so comfortable and wraps around your wrist snuggly (like a snake without the venom), no other watch can compare, it's sad I don't give it enough wrist time but that is changing soon.
Wishing all our members a good and safe week, care to share your Prebonds with me as well? I feel like other than the Omega Dynamic the Prebonds are one of those under the radar Omegas.

I do not currently own vintage pre-bond Omega although I think they are stunning… Especially the 1968 to 1975 Seamasters… having said that I do think the current PO models are the best Omega has ever created certainly technically and equal to the 70s aest...

I kind of fell out of love with Omega (2 botched orders from an AD and a Boutique). I hit a craze for Omega 2008 models (I've got a PloProf and a Rattrapante) and a Planet Ocean has always been on the to add list. Vintage, I love 90s pieces that are weird...

I wish it was a regular dial color

However it got the star look (I'm suspecting service) it looks great. It actually came out pretty consistent, the movement is crisp I made sure to confirm that years ago, was imagining the worst for this piece but fortunately it's been a workhorse.
I've mentioned my fondness for pre-Bonds several times . . .

. . . and while I don't own one, an example precisely like yours - mid-size pure steel - is still on my acquisition list. Perfect size, absence of helium valve, agreeable aesthetics - what more could one ask for? My stardust Seamaster . . . . . . waves he...
That bezel knurling ...

... is a lot more functional than the one they currently have on the 300m.
