Cal. 910 Flightmaster: Joy in the Colorful Details>>>
A while back I was lucky enough to purchase this refurbed cal. 910 w/ original B&P:
Unfortunately, it must have had its work done during the period prior to Omega's re-manufacture of the classic color coded pushers & crowns, as it had only the conventional versions mounted while the original dimpled versions in the baggy had lost their paint.
So, with some gentle prodding from the redoubtable Rrryan, I laid out a bit more money to have this classic Flighty brought back to its correct & colorful glory...
...which seems only fitting for such a great & iconic pilot's chronograph...
Hope you enjoy the pix and enjoy wearing your Vintage Omegas as much as I do!
Best,

The ultimate '70's Omega . . .

Wow, another iconic piece!
You are so fortunate, that it comes with box and paper. It is extremely rare for us to get the watch in full set here. The polishing work I think could be improved, the person has rounded off all the edges. Congrats again, T! Kong
Agree about the polishing, which is what...
...leads me to believe the work was down some time ago to an original case (along with the installation of the non-colored pushers & crowns), as opposed to being a replacement NOS case, as I suspect is the circumstance with my cal. 911... Note: Inner beze...
