Humble Incoming - Vintage.
Hey guys. Got this one today. The 267-cal is well known and this one is in beautiful condition. I believe it was made in late 1950s. It has a classic 35mm solid gold case, signed all over, but what really impressed me was the original dial with raised indexes and logo.

I think this one is a real classic and a perfect watch to wear with a formal attire, so all I have to do now is buy a suit as I don't have any .

Hope you like it.

Really hard to take pics of this one, and they don't do it justice.

Thanks guys. Glad my watchmaker had this one. Doesn't happen everyday but we get lucky sometimes.

Last pics guys. Not sure what strap to use with rose gold, brown or black, but so far brown has been my choice. Thank you all for your nice comments. Much appreciated.

Wow, can’t believe how clean it is! Nice catch Flavio, congrats!

By the way, no suit necessary. Vintage watches look cool as hell with jeans and a t-shirt.

Thanks my friend. I just love Vintage Omega. The moment my watchmaker showed me this one I knew I'd get it. I had the chance to inspect everything, I saw him reassembling the watch, he asked if I wanted a light polishing and I refused so it was a perfect situation. We don't find something like this everyday.

And I agree that it goes fine with anything I decide to wear. Glad I won't have to buy a suit.
