Speedy Tuesday . . .
. . . with the most recent addition . . .
. . . on my wrist. Ca '51 ref 2657 powered by . . .
. . . a cal 342 bumper movement. On my wrist since Sunday . . . currently +/- 0.
What's on your wrists, gents?
I'll post macros later this week . . .
. . . as the quick 'n dirty doesn't do the dial justice. Rose gold and black is my favorite combo . . . when I saw this one, it took all of two seconds to come to a decision.

Here's mine...
...which I received as a present from my uncle who got it in South America in the '60s. My watchmaker tells me the movement is Omega but he forgot to take photos when he opened it up for cleaning. I may try that myself if it's a snap-on back.
Is it a 145.012, Cap, or . . .
. . . an early '68 transitional with 145.012-type chrono hand?
Kudos on either!
Love the subliminal suggestion . . .
. . . in that composition, Marc!
Symbolism is everywhere, even when you're not expecting it.
Thanks, Tony. I'm partial towards black dials with sub-seconds . . .
. . . decked out in rose gold.
Best,

I was hoping Omega would bring a black 1948 Seamaster . . .
. . . into their line-up. They reintroduced the design with the 2012 London Olympics model . . .
. . . and more recently in the 1948 line. A black Sedna 1948 would've been irresistible . . . until now. The vintage ref 2657 is rapidly becoming a personal favorite.
Even over Black Connie.
