When it is an Omega incoming, it is always special
Not something you see frequently but I came across this vintage Omega Seamster 145.029 from 1970 (3.2M serial) with its original 1171 bracelet and 653 end links. I think it was in the early 70's where you see the renaissance or some of the most creative and colorful chronograph dials being produced by Omega. The unique orange hands really contrast well against the blue on this bird. The caliber 861 was verified and what a beautiful movement it is to gaze at. She is still ticking strong after 47 years. What a cool bird she is and just loving it!!
Few shots with CK today~ |

That SM is definitely not a watch seen very often. It contrasts/compliments your CK very nicely. Congratulations!

Very, very nice. The 145.029 might be the most underrated of the early cal. 861 references! I love the beefy case.
