This model is special if only for having the time of first boot on the moon printed on the dial - along with the eagle landing of course! I wonder if the eagle coming down almost in a crater is supposed to be an homage to the actual landing where the same thing almost happened and they had to change course at the last minute? Probably just a graphic design choice. Lovely dial all around 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dave47 6,539 Posted March 4, 2021 Hi, Gang! Happy PAMSDAY to all! This ride for today is the same from the past several days: a treasure from The Gate: nice looking/functioning OMEGA SEA MASTER AMERICA'S CUP on a colorful strap; just a very enjoyable ride with its easy to read dial, colorful strap, etc. Just might take it out again after tomorrow's PAMSDAY. dave: 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope not - as the next stage would probably be big chunks of lacquer and paint falling off... I think/hope that the craziness is just exaggerated by the way the light catches it. It still looks completely “normal” when there’s no strong light source onto the dial from an angle. But you’ve got me worrying now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But you’ve got me worrying now... The filters on these ever evolving digital cameras can really amp up the imperfections, can't they? It's almost like shining a blacklight in a cheap motel room, you see things you really didn't want to know about Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was killing time on the ferry to the mainland this morning. And now I’m replying while I kill time on the way back to the Island! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
