An American in Paris, and . . .

. . . a Brit . . .

. . . in So Cal.

Omega references CK2179 for the US Army and UK2292 for the RAF. Steel vs alloy, 35 mm vs 33, radium vs blued hands - but both powered by a 30T2SC movement.

Different on the outside, brothers in. And that's the way it should always be.

Best,

A lovely Omega 2179 spotted in Paris.

Here is mine, for the comparison. It has lived a rough life, obviously and has a lot of charm. And now, the one I saw: The difference, the writings, which are less fuzzy. 35 mm case, classic military looking radium dial and pointed hands. A lot of allure!...

Interesting comparison, but if they asked me to choose one of the two, yours everyday --- vintage has to show it's had an interesting life! Enjoy it even more! :-) [nt]

It’s a shame that today only a few are still around 35/36 case case. Really nice piece btw Kev

It wears a bit bigger, my friend. A watch which provides a lot of pleasure on the wrist! [nt]

Nice watches, both and i think very rare for this type of watches, radial arabic numbers. So this is a very interesting watch, even mor in this size. [nt]
