Was there a favorite, Champ?
All have moved on to other people, but it was fun to collect these. The Alaska was purchased at my AD when I resided in NJ. That’s one I should have kept. That and the “holy grail” reference 376.0822 as referred to by Omega expert Chuck Maddox.
It was fun collecting those back in the day. Maybe Omega with reintroduce some of them again 😂
Then the Alaska project. The 376.0822 is the one in the front of the first picture. Thanks!
Are you looking to add another Speedy, perhaps any of these recent enticing ones?
Honestly, I get bored easily and probably enjoy the hunt of certain watches more than the final result of getting them. I have a conquer followed by boredom problem 😁
