You are quite right!
I hope to have another try at this image soon. I have some ideas. 
If it's Tuesday . . .
. . . then it's time to share our Omegas. Tuesday's gone Yup, supper at 1:30 AM ;-) . . ....
One of the latest to enter my collection, Damjan . . .
. . . a ref 2576 cal 343 chronometer, ca '49. I'd wanted one for the longest time, so when this example came up literally in my neighborhood, acquisition was a foregone conclusion. Art
Hmmhh.. I'll try to chip-in.. With one of my rather few Vintage Omegas.. :))
Sending Railmaster greetings !.. Best, hs ...
Fantastic watch dear friend HS!! The Railmaster is a grail that has been ...
... so elusive to me! I would love to own one in my collection, but it is a very rare model down here in my usual hunting grounds. I only had one chance to catch one, but the condition was very so so, and the asking price worth of a mint NOS with papers e...
Magnificent.
Unfortunately, I gave all my Omegas to my sister for safekeeping. So that means a complete inability to take any photos... I'll just enjoy yours
What a tasty thread opening dear Art! Lovely vintage Omega...
... and tempting plate in an stunning shot! Omega is another brand I love. Will check my HD and search for some Omega pictures later! Cheers! Abel.
We're going to try forming an Ω thread every Tuesday, Abel . . .
. . . so keep adding to your portfolio; fresh photos are always appreciated! Best, Art
It will be my pleasure to add some shots in this thread Art...
... though regret to say not fresh photos as I have been with little time lately to devote to photography. Hope to reasume that pleasureable hobby of shooting my watches soon! Cheers! Abel.
Absolutely not! It belonged to a Vladesque Parisian collector and ...
... I had not enough garlic at hand to engage the harassing! Lol!
My weird old omega.
This must have been some personal invention. Not a serious watch so just enjoy. Fun anyhow. Never seen any wrist time. Bill Omega Skeleton. Just for fun. ...
Appears to be a skeletonized Ω cal 265 . . .
. . . fitted to a custom case, Bill. Franco had (or still has) a similarly prepared 30T2SCrg chronomètre . . . . . . performed by Joachim Benzinger. Art ...
Lovely Chronometre, Art! Here is one of mine with a ghost dial....
And a Swedish case back! Best Blomman ...
Ref 2400? That's not the only connection Omega has . . .
. . . to Sweden. Flightmaster 910 cases . . . . . . are formed from blocks of Swedish steel. ...
Omega had a very strong hold here in Sweden!
JP Brandt were dominating the Swedish market with Omega for many years! That is one of the reasons you will find quite a lot of early Speedmasters and Railmasters here... Best Blomman
Bill Bruford? Unsure which is more impressive, your Omega . . .
. . . or passion for percussion ;-) . . .
Let me play or better ...
Let Mr. Stevie Ray Vaughan play: Today's Omega is the Apollo XV 40th Anniversary (limited to 1971 pieces). Fresh pictures from this afternoon. Sorry if I made any mistake. Major jet lag. This reminds me this: “ She knows, now, absolutely, hearing the whit...
That's some serious voodoo, Nilo . . .
. . . and I'm not referring just to Stevie Ray. (Saw him perform almost thirty years ago; what a show that was!)
As I get older I feel fortunate to have seen some wonderful shows...
...while regretting some I missed, Stevie Ray among them. Maybe an idea for another post, those you feel thankful to have "experienced", those you regret having missed..?
Omega CK 2451 Argentina Air Force is one of my ....
....more "exotic" Omegas and I like it a lot. ...
That´s a great specimen for sure, with the added interest of its provenance!...
... I´ll show my own example in a few minutes, below. Cheers! Abel
If memory serves correct, Tony, there are a few Genèves . . .
. . . in your collection. Found a gorgeous yellow gold ca '64 Genève (cal 561, sector dial) locally a few years ago at a bargain price, but didn't pull the trigger, mostly on account of having one of the cal 602 chronometers in my collection. Now that I'v...
Dear Art: here are some Omegas from my stable...
... Hope you and your friends will like them! Cheers! Abel Rose gold indexes and honeycomb dial adds charm to this oldie... Fuerza Aerea Argentina issue Chrono... A couple of old SM300... Love the thick lugs of this Seamaster! My favorite Connie... Two ch...
When they brought out the Rosé
So did I! Camera phone and low light, but it worked. ...
Should've incorporated the bottle cork in the background! . . .
. . . that would make for an even more compelling image ;-) . . .
You are quite right!
I hope to have another try at this image soon. I have some ideas.
Late to the Party
But as they say better late than never. A 1961 Seamaster with linen dial powered by the manual cal 265. Wrist shot from the office. Love that chronometer Art, very elegant, yet well balanced and versatile. Regards. Scott ...
If I ever go back to work . . .
. . . it's gotta be in your office. PS - here's a photo of your Omega's movement . . . . . . taken several years ago. Clean as can be! ...
