My second favorite, AFTER the CK 2913. Bigger than the 2913, different lugs, but what a charm. This is one I will have to find once again. But one in great condition, all good, with a nice patina, that is not an easy bird to catch. Best, Nicolas
. . . design of all. Hoping to add a vintage model someday to complement . . . . . . my 60th anniversary model. And a current manual winding Rail would be the icing on the cake. Best, Art
Especially Moonswatch 🙄…they have some great things going on too. I would: 1. Update the Constellation line. Modernize it. 2. Deal with what is an increasingly vague difference between Seamaster 300 and PO. 3. Define, limit and streamline Speedmaster. 4.
. . . had forgotten about this current British military Seamaster, Nicolas. If it's an issued piece there can't be many in circulation. Your chances of finding an issued ref 165.024 . . . [watch credit: Roger G / photo credit: Dr No, 2013] . . . are highe
This is, in my opinion, the most thrilling iteration of the Seamaster 300 ST 165024. Not mine, not yet, but most probably one of these days... Best, Nicolas
. . . at close to six figures U$. Roughly a factor of 10 compared to a civilian ref 165.024. Those who collected Omega in the 'golden age' like yourself and HSTE were farsighted. Enviously, Art
Strangely enough, the new Planet Ocean (I saw them in the store displays a couple of times this year) reminds me more the old Seamaster 300 (what amazing specimens you own my friend!) than the current divers. Thanks for sharing your experience. Simone
[photo credit: Dr No, 2016] . . . that worked for me on a visual level. As it happened, though, that was the same time frame for the 60th anniversary Masters series, so my resources were directed to the Rail. Best, Art
