Yes, yours is a beauty as well...
The steel bracelet must make it convenient for summertime wear. Mine is 18K Pink Gold (solid, not capped) and looks devastatingly gorgeous (said as the proud owner)! The Connies seem to be somewhat under appreciated but I find wearing this one to be as satisfying as wearing a more contemporary watch. It wears larger on the wrist than its dimensions would indicate. My wearing habits seem to come in bursts. That is, I wear a watch regularly for awhile and then move to another.
From such a connoisseur of Omegas your interest is appreciated.
Best,

And here's mine…
This is the gold-plated version of this beautiful watch, which I recent,y bought from Tim Mackrain (the smaller pics are his). This is just gorgeous. I don't think my buckle is correct for the period, I am looking for one that would be, and I am wondering...
I'm wearing it to my son's High School graduation this fine morning…
Lovely day, great family, fine watch! I can't complain! Bonne journée to you all!
Yet another gorgeous vintage Omega - very nice, François! . . .
. . . and I think you're right about the buckle - it appears to be of more recent vintage, but I had a similar buckle on my Connie for a short while, which didn't bother me much at all . . . cordially, Art
You guys are shaming me
Will now not admit to owning this at any Purist gathering....
You need not be ashamed...
cause this is as nice "from the cosmetics" as the chronometers and it has a beautiful and reliable movement! After 40+ years it is not for sure if the chronometers keep time within the chronometer range if they were not treated well... On the other hand a...
Totally Agree with Erich.
HI mrsnak Your Omega is killer ! This model is uncommon in your condition. The case design is classic and timeless. The construction of the case is "middle" is milled out of a solid ingot of steel or gold depending on the case material , with a heavy scre...
I was just having a little fun
This was actually my first Omega. Got it from my watchmaker for a ridiculous price and have especially enjoyed that wonderful dial. There was another guy who also wanted the watch, but I got it because he told my guy that as soon as he got it, he was goin...

Speedy au matin...
Very cool. Also, I think I figured out the Omega versus Rolex thing: Rolex makes jewelry (investment), Omega makes timepiece instruments (real watches). Enjoy! =:^D...
