Omega: Looks very much of that same period.

Looks very much of that same period. Saw this scene of a workshop in the documentary "Tintin et Moi". Thanks Paul! Nice to know a little of Mr Remi's tastes in watches.

Omega: I was actually wondering

I was actually wondering what watch Herge wears after watching the excellent documentary "Tintin et Moi". Then I found this picture. If I was Belgian I'd be proud of Herge's achievements!

Omega: My 2 cents

My 2 cents is that you should be more specific in your questions and do the easy-to-reach research, to avoid looking like you want someone to write an essay for you. Cheers.
