Single W represents a single crystal quartz, as seen on yours @heldring

On the watch penis note....

When watch hands are listed as: 150/90/20 (for example) what do the numbers represent?

Hole (collet) size.

Thank you

Cheers!

Immaculate taste.

In laws brought this down for my little girl. Apparently her great grandfather found it on a train in the late 60’s

^So that’s where I left it!

“Found”

He was a policeman........

Would you like a glass of lemonade? Gotta keep hydrated while you dig that hole...

:3

And after reporting it to the relevant authorities and a suitable time had passed he was allowed to keep it.

Imagine how differently your life may have turned out if he’d found a Seiko instead of an Omega...

incoming...

doesn't bear thinking about.
Although I do have a couple of interesting ( for some of you ) square 70's seiko's that I will be practically giving away ( open to offers ) and I mean giving away as I have absolutely NO desire to keep them.
Pics to follow when I get home . after I have had a beer or two.

Thats sex on a stick. Yours ?

You totally took the bait on that one... it’s a beauty - I’d have been gutted to have lost it/ecstatic to have been given the all-clear to keep it.

I know mate.
It is quite an unusual piece, I obviously see a lot of 60's and 70's Omega but I can't remember seeing one like this one.

Do you know what year that mark 2 is?

Let me know what train they’ll be travelling home on...........

Yep. Bought from a collector in the US, lands next week.

Don't want to trade for a 2013 moon watch do you?
seriously I'd bite your arm off!!

Love the dial on that Speedmaster. I'd really like to add a Speedmaster Japan to my (rather feeble) collection, which is similar.
