Omega

... to Italian Collector Roberto in Milano, who showed his "Jatucka Omega" -his own lucky watch- I am showing here my own example, very similar to Robertos as well as to the one shown here by my good friend Francisc a few months ago. This is a reference ...

. . . I'd like to have for my collection, Abel. Found a nice one on the usual auction site earlier this year, but lost out to a more diligent collector. Afterwards, I was more than a little upset with myself; a marginally higher bid would've made the diff... 

... I regret you missed that auction, but I´m sure you´ll be able to add one of these jumbo sized old Omegas in your collection fairly soon. I guess that if people like Roberto keeps spreading his word about his "lucky watch" these references will get the... 

No buzz, no frills, nothing artificial, just pure aesthetical ( and mechanical ) pleasure. Superb. Un abrazo, Amigo Nicolas

This was really a FIND. How often do you find a watch from 1951 with the original papers?? I bought it from a fellow who told me that his father purchased the watch while in Europe in early 1950s. Here are some pics. Enjoy. ...  

. . . acquiring a ref 2505 with all the accoutrements was quite a feat. Fascinating to see there were authorized Omega agents in South and North Vietnam back in '53, and that the agent for Syria and Lebanon was apparently the same person. One of my accoun... 

Here is one that any of you would have a hard time finding anywhere. Omega Constellation 18K Gold Ref. 151 030 Reference # 151030 in 18K gold. Chronometer movement cal. 712. Case measures 30 mm by 34 mm long. ...  

. . . again, and doubly so, as I've never seen this reference before! Masthead honors for the most unusual Connie I've ever come across. Art
