I might give it some consideration. Haven't bought a rep in a little while as I've been concentrating on my vintage collection, of mainly Seikos. Also considering commencing a vintage Omega collection since I already have about 4 or 5 pieces. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mine is so old that when I bought it from Mary she was married to Rochest and they were called Watch International. "Best case set" and a now unobtanium 4813 with the tall canon pinion. Has to be 7 or 8 years old and still runs great. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just prefer the thinner non-ceramic bezel Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Well, this PO has been one of my project "Lockdown" builds. Much replaced... movement, hands , stem/tube/crown etc, etc. Like you...I prefer the look of ali bezel. I'm really pleased with the end result. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Intresting 21,712 Posted May 30, 2020 amazing how the bezel hue is so close to meat. That's Aussie finest cancelled export order to Japan. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This orange one of mine has a gen insert (allegedly!). And I missed my black one so much that the wonderful rikracy took pity and sold it back to me (after having had all the work required done on it and adding a gen crown). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GingerApple 7,304 Posted May 30, 2020 Few quick pics of the latest arrival, the Pam1661. It's superlight and superblue! I can't take nice pics atm because I don't want my missus to clock another new watch (she got to the postman first )!!! 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
