Cool... but I'm afraid I don't know who that is. Sorry, Henry.

Sorry, Henry.
Singer/songwriter/producer and Lothario of note. He hung around with Nancy Sinatra and produced some of her work as well as dueting with her more than once. His own records usually had that bleached sun look, with flaring and haze much like your photo.
Keep in mind they were way beyond cool back then. Some of those modern hipsters like Father John Misty are being compared, foolishly I think, to Mr. Hazelwood.

A confession, in relation to CFR's watch for today.
For years, I admired the Omega 'Fat Arrow' of 1953 and the Dynamic - without realising that the Dynamic was Omega's hommage to the Fat Arrow.

Exactly. And the Dynamic - as you know - is not hard to find...
The model 5203 has tempted me, from time to time. However, it's a relatively small watch (36.5mm) and, in good shape, it's not cheap. The movement (Omega 1108/ETA 2892) is easy to get serviced, though.

You saw me searching Chrono24? How did you do that?
