Horological Meandering:

I know how much you like the Ploprof. I'm glad Omega went back to the original shape lately. A proof that it was perfect at launch 50 years+ ago

Horological Meandering: Iconic Saturation Divers

I’m beginning to get the hang of the collection concept. I’ve always refused to line up the miniatures in a display case, to accumulate comics read only once in a bookshelf or worse, to bring back sand from each of my trips. And yet despite my desire for eclecticism I find myself with a majority of

Omega: Did Omega really used 904L for the Ploprof 600 ?
