A new Omega is almost my watch. A watch friend is only into vintage watches. So disappoint him with new watches. His old stuff is a museum.
New
I wil tell. Sure, i wil buy a vintage watch in the future. I am to new into watches, to go vintage. I am a rookie. And when i go vintage, i think i want an universal geneva, or a Longines.
Very interesting watch you have there. Always amazing to see how big some collections are.
The indices are really special. Thanks for sharing!
It's an obscure reference . . .
. . . and not most collector's radar, but wholly original and a spectacular performer after a recent service. Art
What is the reference?
I love the way you paired the strap to it as well. It looks so right in the blazing CA sun!
It’s a ref 2667 . . .
. . . powered by a cal 420 movement. Case measures 32.5 mm, and takes a 16 mm strap. Tiny by today’s standards, but can’t argue with a watch that gains maybe 2 seconds per day. Art
Goes to show you...
Pictures can be deceiving... I would have guessed 37mm. Thanks for the info, Art, and hope you have a wonderful weekend!
I checked the 2667 just now . . .
. . . and pleasantly surprised to see it keeping essentially perfect time over three days. So as a reward it gets another day or two on my wrist. The Flightmaster can wait its turn. Art
There's a revival of . . .

As far as I can tell, it's the first implementation of lyre lugs . . .
. . . by Omega, preceding the Speedy by a decade. Art
Thanks, D. One of the least costly additions to my collection . . .
. . . and one of the more enjoyable, too. Best, Art
