Thank you so much for your kind clarification Walter! Interesting to know. Well... you say you live in a poor Country...
... (Spain) ... what should I say then?? Lol!! It is a very interesting watch indeed. To change a heavy bracelet for straps in a good remedy of course, and that Nato adds color and charm to your watch and great idea to match the red stripe with GMT hand. ...
Gracias por tu respuesta Abel.
Yo pienso, Argentina y Espana tienen una cosa en comun, muy poca gente tienen mas capital que la gran mayoria. Aqui son 300 familias que tienen mas que la mitad del capital y del terreno. Pero dinero no es todo, cuando mas tienes, mas problemas tambien ti...
Completamente de acuerdo en que el dinero no es todo mi amigo, y que tambien cuanto mas tienes mas problemas vienen con ello! Pero respecto...

on my way to my workshop so no crazy watch for me today . ...
Quiet weekend in So Cal, Nicolas - not much on the agenda . . .
. . . other than pool practice and chores around the house. Wearing the humble recent addition . . . [ ca '53 Ω ref 2667 cal 420] . . . to my vintage Omega collection. Not nearly as special as your Memovox, but I'm enjoying it immensely. Art PS - Witness ...

. . . for you, Mike. Hard to believe Roy made an appearance on Dukes , but there you have it . . .
The ref 2667? ~ '52 / '53 production, cal 420 movement, . . .
. . . screwed back, and tiny by today's standards, with a 33 mm case that takes a 16 mm strap. I've several other 33 mm vintage Omegas that take either 17 or 18, so this one is downright demure. I think - although not sure - it's the first Omega with twis...
For this casual Friday, I have my Rolex Tudor 1978 Submariner 94010 with rare combination of snowflake hands and dot markers.
Recently made a strap change to a canvas strap made from 1952 military tissue duffel bag. This is not a military watch, but I think it suits it well. Getting out of my car this morning: Ready for the first desk dive of the day: ...

"Eccentric Frenchwoman"
Saw an article about the Zrc Grands Fonds recently. It was called like above. Now saw and bought it in Saint-Tropez. Diameter 40.5 mm with a rather simple movement. According to quality I would compare it with Bell&Ross or Sinn. All in all a somewhat stra...
