My first horological destination on a recent trip to Los Angeles, accompanied by Dr No, Daos and AlexSunrise was the vintage Omega store in Beverly Hills. A real Mecca for Omega cognoscenti.
I tried hard to find a Cosmic that I loved, but Art was the only one to leave with a watch that afternoon.
Here are a few of the watches that we examined …

Art had found treasure ...
And a Breitling Chronomat to round things out ...
Cool report, Andrew, and truly, great treasures! Best, Nicolas
. . . going to be disappointed I didn't "man up" to a larger watch ;-) . . .
First you hide the watch inside a " flock ", then hop, et voilà... Superb, Art, this is Great Art! Can't wait for your pics, my friend, it seems so lovely. Best, Nicolas
... Andrew, next time when i have a chance of visiting LA again, must ask you where this vintage shop is. it is only selling vintage Omega? another brands? stefan
. . . although they have a smattering of other brands.
Thanks for sharing, looks like you had a great time! Best Blomman
