Omega

Hello everyone... Its been almost two years since I lost my close friend Chuck passed away. For almost the last fifteen years we talked at lest once a day (more like 4 times a day and for long periods of time). Looking back now I really miss talking with ...  

I emailed Chuck a few times, a total stranger to him, and he always answered that same day, with detailed info about whatever Omega I was asking about, or in a few cases, Orfina, Porsche Design, always chronos. You could tell with just a few words the guy... 

Thanks for sharing it with us! Best, Nicolas. Ps: Any action?

...this very personal watch story. And you are so lucky you have had the chance to know and exchange thoughts with the late Chuck. Before Chuck died, was I only interested in 2 or 3 hand watches, not chronograph. But I have to say, that when I started loo...

chonometer-rated, it had a black dial with white registers, the model 3210.51, which was a beautiful watch but hard to manually wind (thank goodness it was an automatic) and I sold it eventually, and a Seamaster 300M with the good old ETA 2892A2/Omega 112... 

And had one while he was with us and got the blingier version shortly thereafter No photoshop on that one -- my wrist is about 6 inches underwater and I noticed the refraction of the watch's face; grabbed the point and shoot Some of my favorite watches --...  

Hi everyone.... I was just re-visiting Chuck's review of the Seamaster Pro Chrono Diver... and his last paragraph really sums it up... " Oh, I do love the Speedmasters as well. But I do think that for most folks a Seamaster is a more practical decision. B...
