Cal. 20F is not...
Cal. 20F is not as common as the Cal T17 and I like the designs of these watches very much!
Concerning the purchases through Omega museum: I knew this as I monitored Marco Richon´s purchases on ebay - I got to know his ebay ID by accident... 
Omega museum states on their website that they DO NOT buy back watches, but they do by sure...
kind regards

Been wearing my vintage rectangular Omega . . .
. . . the last few days. Nothing special, just an old tank that wouldn't raise an eyebrow anywhere. Let's see the shaped Omegas in your collections. Bill just posted his vintage Marine, and I know Erich has at least one spectacular piece. There's gotta be...
i still have a few.....; sold many over the years. like this one here to the omega museum
enamel markers: these get a bit of wristtime: this one is the longest steel version, omega made ( there are a few made from silver, that are bigger): this one is a silver cased model: another steel version with enamel markers : kind regards. achim ...
Thanks for sharing these, Julian. Good to see . . .
. . . the one that made its way to the Omega museum left behind a twin sibling at home!
I bought most of them in the late 80`s. 4 have the 20F mvmt.
Biel is an active ebay buyer for rare pieces:they care for their heritage. before the Omegamania auction they bought many early 321 speedies...... kind regards from down under. achim

Here is one of mine...
Here is one of mine with movable lugs - rare early model... and now a "real" wrist-shot Have a close look on the hands! Nice details there... enjoy erich ...
I remember this one well, Erich! Curious . . .
. . . about the movement - shaped, as well?
This was created before...
Hi Art, This was created before they introduced the T17 movement. Before the rectangular movements the cal. 23.7 was frequently used for rectangular watches... here it is there were several iterations of this cal. - here is an adjusted example as you can ...
My six Omegas are all round.
I feel so left out by this thread...I will have to go to EBay and see what I can find. :-) Regards, Jon
You are right, it doesn't raise an eyebrow...

Simple pleasures . . .
. . . can be the most rewarding, Ed. When I end my days of purposeful collecting - and I'm almost done, with just a few more on my list - I suspect it will be these humble angular Omegas that will find their way to my watch box on a whim. Best, Art
Perhaps in the context of current fashion . . .
. . . but eminently wearable, I'll wager. Mine is similarly the smallest in the collection, as well the least noticeable, but I find it immensely enjoyable nonetheless. Spectacular condition, btw - it seems to be one of those immaculate examples that endu...
In the same way a . . .
. . . simple tuna salad sandwich and glass of beer makes for a satisfying lunch, eh, Nicolas? To truly appreciate the special, one has to be able to enjoy the humble, too.
That 'small selection of pieces' exceeds . . .
. . . my current collection, Graham. Yours must've been one of the most impressive private collections ever. Thanks for sharing the tanks! Art
I wish i'd had this...
I wish i'd had this forum to share it with at the time Art, i may not have sold them all. Such is life G
Since G99 opened the quartz "crisis", here I go ...
Working example (it was hard to change the battery): The Omega most classic quartz: Weird shaped chronograph: A more classic shaped, more on Art's line: (Disclaimer: Those watches belongs to a dear friend) Cheers, Nilo ...
There aren't many quartz watches I'd want to own . . .
. . . but the Marine Chronometer is right at the top of that very short list. I found one at a pawn shop a few years ago, but the asking price was relatively high, and there was no budging from the owner. One of these days! . . .
I had one Art, but...
I had one Art, but i sold it for three reasons. The first you already know, The second was that it is pretty big and bulky on the wrist and thirdly, because it was a quartz movement. At the time i was pretty much of the belief that quartz movements were i...
