Just picked this up.
Don't find vintage Seamasters too much nicer.
Cross hair dial.
18k case
And 24j chronometer movement.

This photo is of my Dad and I and my new Evel Knievel toy in mid-70s. He’s wearing a an Omega De Ville my Mum bought him as an engagement present in 1964. He still wears this today.

I'll play

I have a few vintage Omega's. While I enjoy them all, I have a thing for the Constellations. There were Omega's flagship. Here are a few of my Connie's.

Is this considered vintage yet? Blue dial is stunning but hard to capture...

Show Your Vintage Omega.

Just bought a Cosmic 165.026 and it’s en route from Japan. I new to the vintage game and would like to get the watch serviced. I’ve been reading some of the various threads and it seems Nesbit’s in Seattle is recommended. Are there any others you’d recommend closer to me in Southern California?

Here’s a pic!




Thanks

Thanks. I’d been looking for a while at another watch then stumbled on this one. Pulled the trigger faster than I probably should have. Don’t know the watch’s history but the seller had a good rep. Any info on this model would be helpful. Hope it’s not poorly refurbished or anything.

And inherited this from my grandpa who passed away recently... this was from his company (Texaco). It wasn't his retirement watch, but for recognition of his 30 years of service to the company.

He kept it serviced and all of the service receipts are tucked away in the box.
